Design Team - will create a design based on public submissions. This will be presented Glasgow City Council.
We hope the proposed designs will be accepted and implemented to coincide with the proposed City Of Light festival in November 2005. This will depend on Council schedules, as they are re-lining the tunnel this year.
The name 'HoldYourBreath'comes from the habit of local children, who try and hold their breath
from one end of the Tunnel to the other, as if they are diving under the Clyde.
