See clip at youtu.be/3IwWqIP39tM

The bridge under the Stourbridge Common railway bridge has been quite slippy for a while. So it's having it's slip-stop surface replaced.

Here's a good before and after clip while it's been half done. You'll notice the rough nature of the new surface. It's actually pretty difficult to ride and must take at least 25% more effort.

Also, the fixing is a single series of studs along the middle of each strip. This looks like it'll come up pretty easily as it feels like each strip moves around whilst riding over it.
