New cycle lane: between a wheel and a sharp buildout. The red tarmac is <1.20m. The zigzag is 1.5m in its extremes, but where the pavement juts out the width falls to 1.3m.
"Roadworks at the top of the cycle ramp coming out of the Elizabeth Way / Newmarket Rd roundabout underpass going onto Elizabeth Way itself on the left hand side (by CRC)." "The alternative route to the left side of Elizabeth Way involves ... [more]
After writing several times to the authorities I still encounter cars obstructing this part pretty much every afternoon I pass Eastroad. The disused bus stop needs re-designing.
Looking towards Hobson Street from King Street. This is one of the most explicit examples of a cycle route going directly between two No Entry signs. The absence of a "cyclists exception " panel underneath the No Entry signs here co ... [more]
Worst possible provision: pavement cycleway where motor vehicles constantly cross or park on the footway.

Milton Road ASL and MCL are frequently invaded by cars. ¿Park & Ride? The red box is popular with taxis #9119, vans #16094, cars #17399 and the police #17438.
The upper end of Downhams Lane, near the Rees Thomas School, just before the cycle path to Hawkins Road. The College Field Development did not use this road and the Council Planners did not want to integrate this lane with its mature trees ... [more]
This is where cars often park invading pavement and the mandatory cycle lane on East Rd (Newmarket Rd roundabout), forcing cyclist into the car lane. This bay was designed as a bus stop, not parking.
Don't try this with a trailerbike. There are a total of five of these barriers, plus five 90 degree bends and a 180 degree bend on the "cycle" bridge over the A1 at Tempsford.
What possible reason could there be for adding a bollard here, directly next to a fence? See also photo #8778 .
A remarkably smooth and useful bit of path. Segregated by just a white line, pedestrians to the left and cyclists to the right. Not really wide enough for bidirectional use, but as good as it gets in the UK. Photo taken on Land's End to ... [more]
Assen at night at -2 C. Plenty of ice on the grass and the canal is completely frozen over, but the well lit cycle paths are completely free of ice as they always are right through the winter. More photos and a video of riding in these c ... [more]
Cycling across the Afsluitdijk. This is a sea defence 32 km long which separates the IJsselmeer from the North Sea and joins North Holland to Friesland. A very good quality cycle path is provided all the way along the dyke. You can see a ... [more]
The clever way to travel down Milton Road in rush hour. Some people prefer to queue for road space, others prefer to cycle....
Possible solution for Gilbert Road in Cambridge. Even those of us on the Assen trip who strongly dislike off-road cycleways liked this very much. It had a feel of an on-road path but had some segregation.
The infamous East Road layby - the new broken white line has helped but it was quickly worn away and infringements began again - now I see it's been repainted. Maybe it'll last longer this time!
One of many small paths in an area of mixed heath and forest just a couple of minutes cycle from the city of Assen. Anyone can escape the city and get out into some greenery on their bikes with ease. While all these paths are well surfac ... [more]
Four metre wide cycle path past an industrial estate. Very wide and well used, even at the weekend. Note the racing cyclist coming in the opposite direction. People ride such bikes at speed on these paths quite freely because they are go ... [more]
The cycle bridge over the railway near Cambridge Station. Also known as the Carter Bridge.
Long Rd cycle underpass on Aug 7th. All the box sections are in place and work has started on 'wing walls'
Typical situation on Hills Road. What are MCLs good for if cars (number plate AK55 BCF ) stand / stop and even park in them?
Milton Road just after rush hour. Typical situation with on pavement "cyclists give way at every crossing" cycle way.
As ever, the barriers really shouldn't be here. However, the path provided is very direct and very useful. An excellent example of a 1960s/70s design feature which has somehow been forgotten in more modern developments in Cambridge.
There are many cycle routes in Kings Hedges. They are not all wide enough or smooth enough, but they score well for pervasiveness.
The switch from shared use pavement cycleway to on-street mandatory cycle lane on East Rd (Newmarket Rd roundabout) when empty. Signs on the bay are confusing and need amending to enforce mandatory cycle lane.
The switch from shared use pavement cycleway to on-street mandatory cycle lane on East Rd (Newmarket Rd roundabout). This part of the Ring Road is an important cycling route, but poorly designed and often obstructed. Signs are confusing and ... [more]
East Road. Cyclists leaving the subway cycleway bypass round the Newmarket Rd roundabout have to stear around street furniture to the dropped kerb, around illegally parked cars - avoiding collision with cars coming from the roundabout.
At the end of Fox's Lane bridge, take the Fowlers Park path shown going straight on here (along the course of the lost GWR main line railway) to go towards A460 Cannock Road bridge
Lots of kids cycling home from school in Eindhoven. Decent quality cycle paths make this possible all over the Netherlands. Note also the patience of drivers. You can see more examples of children cycling in the Netherlands here: http ... [more]
Victoria Avenue Toucan Crossing 2. The poles on the Midsummer Common (East) side make for a very tight turn onto the shared pavement, often in the face of people coming the opposite way. Unsurprisingly, many people follow the path ta ... [more]
Here's a motorist who thinks that shared-use footpaths are not for walkers or cyclists, they're for cars. It was still there an hour and a half later.
Reliability: Outspoken's bikes can reach parts of the city other courier companys can't. Whatever the congestion elsewhere, their journey times are predictable.
This short section of cycle lane has finally been re-instating after further lobbying of the city council.
Is there really a need for ELEVEN bollards/posts? This is hardly the 'accessible, barrier-free environment' required by government policy.
The Night Survey Group at Gonville Place / Gresham Road junction where posts have sprung up everywhere. http://www.camcycle.org.uk/map/gallery/67/
Road behind the photographer = King Edward Walk (Borough: Lambeth) Crossing Westminster Bridge Road (Road administered by: TfL) Looking towards Morley Street (Borough: Southwark)
The policy with bollards is to set them in 500mm from the pavement. In addition these bollards are 100mm wide, so a total of 600mm (two feet) or roughly 33% is lost from the width of this pavement. See how its done in Amsterdam at: #113 ... [more]
Bait's Bite Lock The steps here have channels to help bikes across. I think this picture was taken during a leisurely ride.
A crummy 'cycleway' outside a school. Riders have to give way to side road traffic, whereas riders on the road can zip along unhindered.
Gritted cycleway down to Riverside - the footway had a light covering of snow. Sorry about the dark image - from my 'phone.
Two-way cycle track on James Morrison Street. Route crosses road to St Andrew's Street (see #35410).
Two-way cycle track along St Andrew's Street. Route has come along London Road and down James Morrison Street (see #35409).
Taken from the upper deck of a number 26 bus. A cycle route crosses Hackney Road here.
King's Boulevard, the new cycle route from Kings Cross to Kings Place and the University of the Arts - showing the position of a future entrance to the Underground.
Southern end of King's Boulevard, the new cycle route from Kings Cross to Kings Place and the University of the Arts
Hugely improved cycle facilities in Recoleta, Buenos Aires - still virtually no parking, however.
Hugely improved cycle facilities in Recoleta, Buenos Aires - with map to the right, container for free bike rental to left
The beginning and end of it. This is a short section of cycle path (shared use) leading from the Essex Yeomanry Way toucan, to the junction with Tollgate Drive. Look by the brick wall on the left and you'll see the 'End of Route' sign, a ... [more]
