The clever way to travel down Milton Road in rush hour. Some people prefer to queue for road space, others prefer to cycle...
View of an advanced stop line from the excllent Thai pub known as the Wrestlers. Light snow is falling.
Riders emerge from the central cycle lane off Hills Road bridge - away from the dangers of the left turning traffic.
This bus-only road in Haarlem has not rising bollards, just prohibitory signs and a few road markings. The with-flow cycle lane (on the right, of course) is segregated from the road by means of a humped reservation.
Quiet cut-through suitable for cyclists and pedestrians. Through-route blocked for cars by a couple of bollards. A good example of permeability.
No entry for cars at this end of the road but there is access for cyclists. A good example of filtered permeability.

Looking down onto the area where a new bridleway is being constructed to form an alternative to this busy road.
This street environment seems vastly improved since my last visit to Sheffield in 2004. This is a big toucan crossing and you can cycle up Howard Street its plenty wide enough to work well.
A welcome new "Give Way" marking has been added at this junction after complaints that the priorities were the wrong way round.
Raised table where cycle path meets 'no through route' road in 30kph zone. Cycle path straight ahead.

Permanent green light for cyclists to pass through Monk Bar Gate, York (pedestrians and buggies permitting)
Split cycle lanes on roundabout in Acomb, York, persuading some cars to give way to cycles.
See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5TJe2iGd9c and site at http://www.thebusway.info/ Currently the longest guided busway in the world. This may not last, as the contractor (who's been taken to court by the council for failure ... [more]
Instead of waiting at lights to turn right (and instead of a 'turn right on red' exception), cyclists simply give way to traffic coming from the left at this junction in central Amsterdam.
Cyclists don't pay but need to take this bypass around the toll barriers on the Clifton Suspension Bridge.
This access road to a new development in Houten in the Netherlands provides for drivers to access 900 homes - about the same as Orchard Park. This is the only access route for drivers, though cyclists have many other routes and can use t ... [more]
New footway to the Château de Lourmarin created across the wall from the carriageway - making the road safer for cyclists.
Bicycle Road (fietsstraat) in Assen. Cyclists are all on one side of the canal while drivers use the other side. This side is a through road only if you ride a bike, and provides part of a direct and very nearly completely car free route fr ... [more]
Rising bollards in Valence (one-way for motor vehicles, two-way for cycles) - location not exact.
Former dual carriageway (presumably) outside Annecy station, with one half now a two-way road and the other half for buses and cycle only
The 'gateway' to one of the Netherlands' many many "60 km/u zones": two all-vehicles lanes become one central lane flanked by two advisory cycle lanes. While this is very common in the Netherlands, the UK has lagged behind on these so-calle ... [more]
A series of commemorative paving slabs have been installed along this section of the footway in Earl Shilton. They evoke the former status of this village as a hive of industrial activity making shoes and hosiery.
Interesting junction in Wollishofen, Zurich - there's nowhere for cars to go, but bikes can continue.

Groningerstraat in Assen. This is a street the same width as Gilbert Road in Cambridge. The layout is extremely good for cycling, and residents get to keep their on-road car parking: http://hembrow.blogspot.com/search/label/groningerstra ... [more]
The absurd Cyclists Dismount sign en route to the cycle shed has been removed (see #17473).
