There's an advanced stop box at the end of this road, but no cycle lane going down Farringdon Road leading up to it. There used to be a cycle lane here. Because the traffic leading up to the bridge is almost always solid in rush hour, people tend to filter around the traffic, including vans and HGVs, to get to the front of the queue. A cycle lane (even if it was narrow) would encourage traffic to queue away from the kerb and leave room for cyclists to pass. There used to be a cycle lane here before the junction was remodelled - please bring it back!
