Skillful or foolhardy? It's a fairly common sight in Cambridge to see cyclists carrying loads of stuff on their bikes.
It is without explanation, but I believe the thing on the left is to allow cyclists to pull in and wait to cross to the shared footway on the right. See also #170247. The ban on right turns presumably didn't take into account the route o ... [more]

improvement
plant/more hedges
reduce roads sizes to create more cycleway paths for all to use
quieter buses
width reducing car measures reducing numbers of cars passing through residential areas
introduce time restrictions for cargo trucks using roads
reduce speed limits to 20 mph in residential areas, introduce road humps.
ask residents if they are willing to pay a small sum toward introducing road measures also to fund this scheme. consider using the monies from traffic camera penalties or breaches for polluting cars and no access vehicles to improve road safety, and making roads quieter. also consider using recylced road tyres for tarmacing roads- 170256 Sheffield stands needed outside the Forest Tavern for customers. Currently bikes are imperfectly locked to the railings there.
- 170255 Sheffield stands clearly needed outside Webster's and other shops here to encourage cycling.
- 170231 There has been great work to the Bull Plain crossing with Maidenhead Street but some drivers do not take care when crossing and travel much too fast when approaching - is there something that could be done - to persuade car drivers to take more care?
- 170230 No safe way for cyclists & pedestrians to cross the A47 at the Longwater interchange.
- 170229 Very difficult to cross William Frost Way due to the high level of traffic

- 170226 Travelling against the flow of traffic will cause accidents and chaos
- 170225 Mablethorpe is a one road town, any ideas which would cause any obstruction on the high street to the traffic will cause utter chaos and grid lock the town!
- 170224 Whoever keeps coming up with these unworkable and silly ideas, needs sacking!
- 170223 It can't be improved
- 170222 Whole one-way system needs to be a 20 mph Zone, this would be beneficial to people cycling in the road. Also those walking on narrow footpaths and motorists that come across queuing traffic.
