EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view captures the early stages of construction on Section A of the iconic M6 Motorway in Staffordshire, England. Taken in the 1960s, this print showcases the remarkable progress made on this vital transportation artery that connects Birmingham to Preston. The image reveals two significant structures: 1b/318, known as Doxey Brook underbridge, and structure 317, which is the Doxey Brook relief culvert. The meticulous engineering work can be observed through the piled cofferdam surrounding both abutments of structure 318. These structures are essential for ensuring a smooth flow of traffic and maintaining environmental balance by accommodating waterways. Part of an extensive project called Breaking New Ground in collaboration with the John Laing Charitable Trust, this photograph provides valuable insights into one of Britain's most important road networks. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination to enhance connectivity and facilitate economic growth. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot captured by Historic England Archive, it reminds us how far we have come since those early days when modern infrastructure was being built from scratch. This image not only celebrates our achievements but also pays homage to all those who contributed their expertise and hard work towards creating a better-connected world for generations to come.
