EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1970, we see Mr L Hayden, a dedicated roller driver who has just completed his work on the Perry Barr flyover in Birmingham. However, instead of resting on his laurels, he finds himself lending a helping hand at another job. This image captures the essence of hard work and determination that was prevalent during that era. The Perry Barr flyover, located at the junction of Heathfield Road and Trinity Road, is set to be officially opened today with all lanes ready for use. The Walsall-bound carriageway has already been operational for a few days now. This remarkable infrastructure project aims to enhance traffic flow along Birchfield Road between the underpass at Six Ways and Birchfield. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes evident that Mr L Hayden's commitment goes beyond simply completing one task; he embodies the spirit of teamwork and dedication as he seamlessly transitions from one project to another. His involvement symbolizes the collective effort required to construct such monumental structures. This photograph not only showcases an individual's contribution but also serves as a reminder of West Midlands' progress in transportation development during the 20th century. It encapsulates both the physical labor involved in construction work and its impact on improving daily life for residents. With its historical significance and timeless appeal, this print by Birmingham Post and Mail Archive transports us back to an era where hardworking men like Mr L Hayden played vital roles in shaping our cities' landscapes.
