The third of 14 floodlight towers to be erected at the Olympic Stadium has been set in place.
As you can see from our images below, the tower - which has a span of around 18 metres and weighs circa 45 tons - was carefully hoisted into position on the arena's new roof by site engineers earlier this week.With each floodlight structure taking up to 12 hours to affix, the process is a slow and arduous - yet ultimately rewarding - one. West Ham are due to move into the stadium in time for the start of the 2016/17 season.
