Red car W516 VOJ reported to police at 4:45 pm as incident 0403 / 02102007. This vehicle is a regular culprit: #11515, #11517 and #11638. Note: Many obstructions on the pavement. Confusing layout for cyclists.
Cars are allowed to park Mon-Sat daytime for 30 min in this lay-by on East Road, which is designated on our Traffic Regulation Orders and by signage on site as a maximum waiting parking place. This one invades the MCL and stands on the "cyc ... [more]
A ridiculous situation in Regent Terrace. Supposed to be a main walking and cycling route to the centre from the Station area, this is in fact a dangerous and hostile car park.
We've had reports that on the weekends in the run-up to Christmas this area is totally swamped with vehicles trying to avoid city centre car parking charges.
Wherever there is space, cars will squeeze in - often blocking each other in. Traffic wardens will not ticket a vehicle unless it completely obstructs the footpath or is on double yellow lines. As these vehicles are not on the "Road" they a ... [more]
Builders from the nearby Brunswick Development (http://www.brunswick-site.co.uk) use the cycle path under the bridge for free parking, obstructing the foot path.

By crossing the bollards at Cutter Ferry Close, cars and vans can park all along the cycleway both sides of the bridge.
More unrestricted car parking in cycle lane on Clarence Drive on Colleges Cycle Route. Presumably the direction for the city centre (omitted on sign) is straight on.
Cycle lanes with unrestricted car parking in Clarence Drive, on Colleges Cycle Route. Surely creating cycle lanes without any waiting restrictions, thus allowing car parking in them, is a waste of public money. The same result (unrestric ... [more]
Cycle link at end of Marlborough Avenue linking to Crow Road blocked by car parked across entrance of cycle track. Cyclists tend to use gap in Fire Path instead. See also #34310.
Cycle link from Crow Road to Marlborough Avenue at risk of blockage from car parking. This one has left a little space, but see #34311 taken from other side of Fire Path.
Unrestricted car parking in cycle lanes on Corkerhill Road, outside sports centre with its own off-road car park (which was half empty at the time of photo).
Bell School development to Addenbrooke's link: this car parking will be very obstructive
This formerly no-car-parking, cycle-friendly development is now turning into an ugly, unregulated car park.

This formerly no-car-parking, cycle-friendly development is now turning into an ugly, unregulated car park. Note how the child on a bike is now on the pavement, presumably because the cars are now in the way.
Some of the many cars parked on double yellow lines along here - these two blocking access to the pedestrian / push-chair / wheelchair / cycle route, and restricting the visibility of children emerging from the nearby playing field. Afte ... [more]
Looks like the drivers of these cars think they can get away with the double yellow line violation by parking right on the verge. After reporting this to County's Parking Services I'm told these double yellow lines are not on the public ... [more]
Cycling here would be so much more safe and pleasant without all the cars parked, as shown here

Shows the typical scene on Regent Terrace on a Sunday when the parking restriction is not in place. See also #31762 where it is suggested that more cycle parking is needed here. As a cyclist, that would make it easier to use this route.
Space left for pedestrians after it has been stolen by parked cars on Milton Road is tiny, and surely would be impassable by a wheelchair
Attractive cycle-friendly estate now seems to be turning into a car park now that private no parking signs have been removed. Yellow lines needed before this becomes endemic.
A conspicuous car conspicuously parked in the mandatory cycle lane on the Woodstock Road outside Somerville College
Scandalous that this parking, which causes an obstruction to buses, cycles and other traffic becomes free during the rush hour at 5pm!

Tesco unloading selfishly from the ring road narrows the carriageway for other road users badly
Thoughtless car parking on St Matthew's estate: two cars on the pavement, the first right over the pedestrian crossing dropped kerb

The St Matthew's development off York Street may be a flash point for clamping but even legal parking should be considerate; in this common case the pedestrian desire line is being blocked a little. Should be proper yellow lines.
Surface-dressed in August 2010, but double yellow lines not repainted. With the parked cars, the road is only just wide enough for two cars to pass - I don't think buses would make it. Note that both the white van and the third car are ille ... [more]
On 18 May 2010 a group of Gilbert Road residents, Councillors, the MP for Cambridge, members of the Cambridge Cycling Campaign and other road users cycled along the road to Chesterton Community College at the time when children were going t ... [more]
A massive PCL lorry delivers a grand total of three trolleys of milk to Tesco East Road, blocking most of one side of the road. This is an unsuitable location for lorry deliveries; instead the delivery bay round the back should be used, wit ... [more]
Unloading on East Road with large lorries causes problems for cyclists and other traffic.
Within the first two minutes, this is the tenth cyclist having to swirl into the main motor lane past this obstruction. In this 4 min series: #21515, #21517, #21518, #21519.
Car partly obstructing the cycle lane on Gilbert Road, a few hundred yards west of Chesterton Community College. In this 5 min journey along Gilbert Road from Guerney Way to Histon Road: #21506, #21508, #21509.
One pupil's safety is other pupils' risk. Car stopped right on the "END" sign of the cycle lane "to be legal". Other pupils have to cycle around the car into the main lane at an accident hot spot.
Many pupils cycle from Guerney Way to Chesterton Community College on the pavement. Coming from Milton Road / Guerney way, the only safe crossing is at the school gate.
Another example of selfish parking on Kingston Street. The pavement is totally blocked, forcing a mother to push her child down the middle of the road.
Contractors' cars turning Parkers' Piece into a car park. Why is this being allowed to happen?
Close up of the van shown in #19106. Parking like this also blocks road the view of oncoming traffic for road users trying to turn onto the A628 from Green Lane.
A van is parked on the path adjacent to the busy A628 leaving barely enough room for pedestrians to pass and no space for disabled access of buggies. This is quite common in the area.
Economic value of parking spaces in Petersfield; demonstrates how free parking in the area is a bargain and puts complaints about lack of space in context
For a second day, parked with room for bikes to pass on both sides. As Woody Allen said to Annie Hall, 'it's fine, I can take a cab to the sidewalk!'.
These cycle lanes are often useless as cars park in them. Schedule 23 of The City of Cambridge Area B (Consolidation) Order 1993 includes the entirety of Gilbert Road as one of the locations for mandatory cycle lanes. (Solid lines, no ... [more]
Bottisham Dental Centre and Medical Centre - prairies of car parking, but no cycle parking at all.
Selfish parking across pavements. Why do they do it, when there is enough space for others to park?
Clothall Road at the entrance to Hartfield Road is invariably obstructed by parked cars. This creates an obvious hazard for school children and for cyclists on the road. All properties fronting onto the road have access to off street par ... [more]
Car parking on the pavement is so endemic here it seems routine to totally block the pavement.
Pavement parking is endemic, even in this quiet road where there is plenty of room on the road yet where the pavement is already narrow. The yellow warning signs about not leaving stuff in cars on _every_ lamppost crank up the paranoia.
New disabled parking space. We have no quarms with allocation of spaces for the disabled, but this should have been at the expense of an existing car space so that this cut-through is not compromised. Effectively what has happened here is o ... [more]
Vehicles stopping on Mill Road cause safety problems. Tesco propose to worsen the existing situation for twice a day with a lorry unloading for 41 minutes each and adding a cash machine (which will generate vehicles stopping).
Lorries unloading from Mill Road cause safety problems. Tesco propose to worsen the existing situation for twice a day for 41 minutes each.
