While Mother Nature keeps the winter weather at bay, the King Pine terminal construction presses on here at Sugarloaf. After receiving the steel frame last week, the remaining terminal components, including the 29,000lb motor assembly, arrived this weekend after a five day cross-country journey, from Salt Lake City UT.
Our lift crew wasted no time in unpacking the many pieces, taking inventory, and beginning assembly. Yesterday, less than 24 hours after delivery, the crew navigated Crosshaul with the motor assembly in tow, to relocate it from parking lot E to the constructions site. First thing this morning, a crane hoisted it to its final destination on the steel frame.
Over the next 4-5 weeks, the crew will concentrate on piecing the rest of the terminal together, with some help from the experts at Doppelmayr. The lift is expected to be ready for operation in late-December.
