Conwy tunnel

[@DesOwen]

I was system engineer on this great project. I used to love driving to work. I developed most if not all of the technical software used by Travers Morgan and this software was used for Hz and Ve Alignment, Least Squares Calculation to ensure the tunnel ends were square, Volume and Floatation metrics software. I also used my Hx/Ve Alignment software to build a mobile app (Psion organiser) to monitor the floating out and sinking of the tunnel elements. Such an interesting job and great bunch of people and the experience has helped me build the software engineering career I've enjoyed ever since.

I remember this happening, when I was at school. The presenter did not mention the bombs that were found in the area. The casting basin was used to make Mulberry Harbours during the second world war. As a result, the Germans found it to be a legitimate target, and also a continuation from the bombing run of Liverpool. The same area now ,is where the Marina is, and the shape of the outline is still there. I remember being driven across the flyover, before the tunnel opened,and it was quicker to walk, than driving across from Llandudno Junction to Conwy.
