[Image taken 5.2.21] People riding on the Monks Cross, York retail park cycle route have lost the red colouring of the tarmac and now have to rejoin the road. There is no kerb but the angle is such that I feel even with no mobility issues it would be tricky to look behind to see if there is a driver approaching (from around a corner) and exit into the road with confidence. Doing it with more than one other person or if the other person were not an adult who could decide for him/herself when it was safe to proceed would not be easy. There is not much space to wait if you are in a group, say, between the point you exit onto the road and the place pedestrians are crossing the unmarked continuation of the cycle route to/from the zebra crossing. You may also have had to stop (and therefore start from a stationary position) for a second time in a couple of meters. Not easy for everyone. See also: #162557, #162558, #162560 #162561
