Manuel Melis Maynar
Manuel Melis Maynar was a renowned Spanish civil engineer, best known for his pivotal role in the rapid development of the Madrid Metro, a project that set new standards for urban transportation infrastructure in terms of efficiency and cost-effectiveness. His expertise in tunneling and public transport has left a lasting impact on urban planning, particularly in cities facing similar infrastructural challenges. His meeting with Irish Taoiseach Bertie Ahern in 2003 highlighted the potential for transformative infrastructure projects in Dublin, yet the ambitious plans for an underground rail system remain unrealized two decades later.
