A turbomachine includes a plurality of transition ducts disposed in a generally annular array. Each of the plurality of transition ducts includes an inlet, an outlet, and a passage defining an interior and extending between the inlet and the outlet and defining a longitudinal axis, a radial axis, and a tangential axis. The outlet of each of the plurality of transition ducts is offset from the inlet along the longitudinal axis and the tangential axis. The turbomachine includes a support ring assembly downstream of the plurality of transition ducts along a hot gas path, and a plurality of mechanical fasteners connecting at least one transition duct of the plurality of transition ducts to the support ring assembly. The turbomachine includes a late injection assembly providing fluid communication for an injection fluid to flow into the interior downstream of the inlet of at least one transition duct of the plurality of transition ducts.
