EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a bustling scene at junction 16 on the M1 in April 1985. The image perfectly captures the essence of the 1980s, with its vibrant energy and constant movement. As we gaze upon this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported to an era where cars ruled the roads and traffic jams were a common occurrence. The composition showcases a wide array of vehicles that defined that time period. From the iconic Ford Escort and Fiat Panda to the reliable Ford Transit Van and Vauxhall Astra, each car represents a piece of automotive history frozen in time. Amongst them is also the beloved 2CV by Citroën and Datsun Nissan Cherry, adding diversity to this lively tableau. However, beyond just showcasing these classic automobiles, this photograph also sheds light on some pressing issues faced by urban areas during that era. The congestion depicted here reminds us of how motorways became hotspots for pollution due to heavy traffic flow. Long queues formed as commuters navigated through busy intersections like junction 16. As we reflect upon this image today, it serves as a reminder of how far transportation has come since then. It prompts us to appreciate advancements made in reducing congestion and improving air quality while acknowledging our collective responsibility towards sustainable transport solutions for future generations.
