The Canadian Statesman, BowmanvilleA ut2,17 5 Hydro ops Of ransmission Tower Near Newtonvil The first of a long sertes of transmission towers for Ontario Hydro's 500 KV line are already becoming landmarks in the area just south of Newtonville, in Newcastle and in the Bowmanville area. These photos show the three stages of construction which complete the upper haif of a. tower. The large photo directly above shows the first set of arms installed atop the base of the tower. Having finished the first Section, the four men.on top of the structure wait for the second section to be llfted up. The remaining six photos show the other two parts of the tower being lifted into place to complete the job. About mne hour elapsed between the Urne the first photograph and the last photographs were taken. It is estimated that Ontario Hydro crews can top off two to three towers per dlay depen- ing on the conditions they have to cope with. The operation is difficuit on windy days and when e wds are inthe 20to 25 mph range the operation is cancelled. The tower ini this particular photo stands about 177 feet high and weights approximately 20 tons. It takes a crew of eight men to assemble the structure. This tower was being completed last month in a field southwest of Newtonville. Bases of the tower are built first; then the upper arms of the structure are lifted into place. The next step in the construction of the transmission lime will be the stringing of wires. For this operation, helicopters are used.
