This print takes us back to the bustling city centre of London in the 1960s. The image captures a significant moment in history as construction work begins on the new traffic underpass at Hyde Park Corner, just behind the iconic statue of the Duke of Wellington by the Wellington Arch. The underpass project was part of a larger road improvement scheme aimed at alleviating traffic congestion on central London roads. This ambitious endeavor sought to enhance transportation efficiency and create smoother journeys for commuters. The completion of this underpass would prove instrumental in transforming the roundabout into a more streamlined intersection. As we gaze upon this monochrome snapshot, we are transported to an era where progress was being made amidst urban chaos. The sight of workers diligently laboring away against a backdrop that includes both historical landmarks and modern machinery is truly awe-inspiring. It is fascinating to think about how this construction site eventually evolved into an essential component of London's infrastructure, providing countless individuals with improved access throughout the city center.
