Duncan - Rush SpringsTransmission Improvements Project


Public Service Company of Oklahoma (PSO) representatives plan to strengthen the electric system by rebuilding an aging transmission line in Stephens and Grady counties. Crews plan to start construction in fall 2025 and conclude in late spring 2026.

The project involves rebuilding about 25 miles of 138-kilovolt transmission line in Stephens and Grady counties.

Project Updates

Spring 2024: As this project has evolved, the timeline has shifted. PSO representatives plan to start construction activities in fall 2025 and conclude in late spring 2026.

Spring 2023: Due to challenges with the supply chain, PSO representatives decided to rebuild this line using mostly concrete single-pole structures instead of steel. PSO representatives expect pre-construction activities to start in late summer of this year, with transmission line construction starting in early fall. Crews plan to finish construction in late spring 2024.
