36186Photo #36186Cyclists coming from water lane turning right onto green end road face a hazard from cars. Cars going towards Milton Road (approaching from the left) will happily follow another vehicle over the roundabout without looking for a cyclist. Vehicles going over alone are more likely to look.

There's often a large van parked on the corner blocking the view which makes this worse.
On average someone fails to give way about once every week to two weeks, so I've got used to seeing if they're going to stop and luckily haven't been hit, though it got close once with a No 2 bus - I ended up adjacent to the driver's window. I can understand why there's several reported casualties at the same spot. It's well worth looking at this intersection design to make it safer. Lights would make some good sense.		Obstruction:

The first signs of this kind (see #21171) are still in good shape. Is the Council now using a cheaper method, or are they unable to cope with the much greater foot fall in town centre?		General sign/notice:

Sign reads:

THE BIKE SHEDS
These shelters were built during WWII to house the many bicycles that were used daily by Bletchley Park staff as transport to and from the site.

Cycling was one of the few cheap and convenient methods of travel at the time.

The construction of the shelters is a fine example of wartime engineering.

(Then another sign inside the shelter reads: Warning: Fragile Roof) ;-)

A plaque attached to one of the bikes reads...

This bicycle has been donated by the late
Frederick George Dent
who rode it from new, for many years
and until his passing on 31st October 2008
at 88 years.
