EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating print from Mary Evans Picture Library captures a moment in history when road traffic control was managed from the air. Circa 1937, an observer is seen communicating with police on the ground via radio-telephone to report on the state of traffic. In cases of accidents or congestion, this information allowed for quick decisions to halt or divert circulation as needed.
The image provides a glimpse into how transportation and communication technology have evolved over time. It showcases the innovative methods used to ensure smooth flow of traffic on roads and streets, highlighting the importance of efficient traffic control systems.
As we look back at this historical snapshot, we are reminded of the crucial role that observers played in keeping our roads safe and preventing gridlock. Their ability to relay real-time information to authorities helped prevent accidents and keep traffic moving smoothly.
Overall, this print serves as a reminder of how far we've come in terms of managing road traffic and highlights the ongoing efforts to improve transportation systems for safer and more efficient travel.
