Until the building of the M40 this was the main road connecting London with Oxford, Cheltenham, Gloucester and South Wales. This old trunk-road now seems rather under-used - at the time of the photo, on a weekday afternoon in April, vehicles were passing at a rate of less than one per minute in each direction. Not far ahead the road reaches the crest of the Chiltern scarp, and then snakes down through woodland toward the Icknield Way.
