General Contractor: Jackson Construction Group

Completion Date: January 2026

Encore Electric was tasked with powering the tram, partnering with Jackson Construction Group, tram provider Garaventa, and other project partners to build a powerful lift that can withstand the mountain’s conditions as it carries athletes to the peak.

Construction teams approached the project in two phases, one throughout the summer of 2022 and two in summer 2023. Phase one included all electrical underground and conduits in the tram’s concrete base to power the tram controls. Phase two included the final electrical connections, lighting, and control room power to make the trams usable.

Phase two of the project timeline was even more condensed for the Encore Electric team. All electrical needed to be completed for Garaventa to have plenty of time before the snow began to roll in to install and test the trams ahead of the season. Working in such short windows of time demanded a high level of planning, coordination, and creativity between project partners. Encore Electric electricians were often working right alongside the HVAC, concrete, and Garaventa teammates to maximize time on site.
