This photo was taken around 50 years ago but it features an issue that has remained a constant to this day.
The Watford Observer is delighted to share pictures from the Museum of Watford's archive and this week the focus is on this street in the town.
The museum’s volunteer archivist Christine Orchard said: “This photo, captured by Bob Nunn in the 1970s, is of Regent Street looking towards Leavesden Road.
“When compared with the road as it looks today, it seems little has changed.
“Renovations and changes from sash to double glazing have taken place, the vehicles perhaps slightly larger. There are subtle changes though, and these relate to the way we connection to the outside world.
“There were no satellite dishes back then and the telegraph poles were not crowded with full fibre connections.
“What seems not to have changed however, is the parking spaces. It looks like it was an issue back then too!”
