[Image taken 18.4.21] Clifton Moor Gate, York. Clifton/Rawcliffe are leisure, residential and retail areas with a network of segregated pedestrian and cycling links. York Council signs consistently overlook the existence of people who cycle in the city. How can provision be made and resources allocated for an invisible transport mode? How do you encourage people to use sustainable transport; support individuals’ sustainable, active transport choices; authenticate the authority’s own transport aims and ambitions (www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/dec/31/york-to-ban-private-cars-from-city-centre-within-three-years) if signage ignores a popular form of transport? See also signs here from 18.4.21: #167365, #167366, and from 1.4.21: #166546. Same issue at Marygate car park in 2021: #167242 and in 2022: #178077.
