This used to be one of the main roads to the centre of the city, but now it's a "bicycle road" and used by cars only for access. Motorists have been given a different (less direct) route.

While these look like 1.5 m bike lanes each side of a 2.1 m car lane, they are no such thing. The whole road is in effect a cycle path, but one on which residents in the half a dozen houses on this road may drive their cars.

The road is a dead end to cars at both ends, but a through route for cyclists. It provides the most direct route to the middle of the city from a new housing estate.

The video shows the bike path which leads to the road.

Mud on the road is due to the considerable number of construction traffic currently using this road.

Another view of this road is shown in #11872
