Mark Twain Transmission Line

Northeast MO

The L. Keeley Civil team was selected to construct the Mark Twain Transmission Line Project, extending 96 miles through Adair, Knox, Lewis, Marion, and Schuyler counties in Missouri. The goal of this transmission project was to improve capacity, grid strength, and provide significant local and regional benefits.

LKC self-performed SWPPP, access, and foundation, providing a one-stop-shop for everything excluding electrical work. With 95 team members on the job, LKC was able to complete the project in less than a year, despite schedule changes due to local ownership and real estate challenges. In order to keep the project on schedule, LKC mobilized seven foundation crews.

The 95 Keeley’ns on the jobsite have all been recognized by the customer for their focus and dedication to contributing countless hours of work to see the project to completion despite multiple challenges. Collaboration, innovative thinking, and persistence among LKC and all other partners were vital factors in the success of this project.
