Hydro One Project, Downtown

[mburrrrr]

No drone required. They now have a blue crane to lift the blue spools in and out. Matchy Matchy.
The 2.5km tunnel is 3m in diameter. I guess they are not rolling this down the tunnel?
Maybe they just have a puller and a 2.5km yellow rope from Home Depot on the far end or half way or less and pull this X kg cable on the rollers on the future cable supports? Small bobcat or golf cart or an electric tunnel cable puller vehicle thingy? Float in on a very long boat?
Anyone?

Edit
I found a youtube link of an example.

Many options

It gets better

I think they have been installing wire in the tunnel for several weeks now, not sure if they are bringing in wire for both ends, next time I am at Bay & Dundas I will look and see if there are reels in the Hydro Yard there too.
