[Image taken 21.11.22] Tanner Row, York. The driver in the HQ Dental (www.hqdental.co.uk/) van has chosen to park on a contraflow cycle lane. The contraflow is towards the camera. The all-users route is away from the camera. The driver went into a building which is on the non contraflow side of the street. The driver therefore put people on cycles at risk by parking in the contraflow cycle lane rather than in the 'all users' lane; had to cross Tanner Row twice himself on foot; had to drive onto the other side of the street ie into the oncoming [cyclists] lane, had to drive off from the other side of the street ie out of (and necessarily therefore) to some extent along the advisory cycle lane. I had hoped the repainted contraflow markings might stop this behaviour by making the cycle lane clearer. Other image today: #187828.
