EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the bustling city of Cardiff in the 1970s. The image showcases a significant moment in the city's transportation history - the construction of the North Road Fly-over, which would soon carry traffic over the Western and Eastern Avenue Junction. From our vantage point at the Cross Inn in Gabalfa, we witness an impressive feat of engineering taking shape before our eyes. On the left side of the frame, we see vehicles navigating through existing traffic on North Road, highlighting just how necessary this flyover is for improving congestion and ensuring smoother journeys for all. The scene captures not only a physical transformation but also represents progress and modernization within South Glamorgan's transport infrastructure. As cars pass by and workers diligently continue their construction efforts, it becomes evident that this project will have a lasting impact on Cardiff's road network. Transport enthusiasts and history buffs alike will appreciate this snapshot frozen in time. It serves as a reminder of how cities evolve over time to meet growing demands while preserving memories of what once was. This print allows us to reflect upon Cardiff's past achievements while acknowledging its continuous development into a vibrant metropolis.
