EDITORS COMMENTS
The demolition of the final section of the old A19 Wolviston interchange flyover is nearly finished as the giant ball smashes its way through. This print from January 26th, 1983 takes us back to the bustling construction era of the 1980s. The image showcases a significant moment in Teesside's transport history, capturing both the power and precision involved in dismantling such a massive structure. As we gaze at this remarkable scene frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at the sheer scale of this operation. The wrecking ball, suspended high above ground by heavy machinery, swings with force and determination towards its target - symbolizing progress and change. The surrounding environment reveals signs of ongoing roadworks and construction activity, highlighting how vital infrastructure projects were shaping our modern world. This photograph serves as a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance during an era defined by ambitious development plans.

As we reflect on this historical moment captured by Memory Lane Prints' talented staff photographer, it reminds us that progress often requires letting go of what once was. Whether you have personal memories tied to this iconic landmark or simply appreciate witnessing history unfold before your eyes, this print invites you to immerse yourself in an important chapter from Teesside's past.
