The route sign at the Bowline junction, east of Bowling. NCN7 is now signed via the new Bowline route, while NCN754 continues along the canal towpath. In the Clydebank direction, NCN7 is incorrectly shown in brackets.
The area could do with tidying up, noting the routes people actually use, and to have some benches installed.
Progress on the bridge under construction at Stockingfield Junction, looking through the worksite gate.
The sign on the gate says "No Parking" but there is no enforcement. The footway forms the link between the partly installed toucan crossing across Craighall Road and the canal path.
The canal path access next to the Centre81 community centre is now opened. There are steps and a hair-pin bend ramp. The community centre also has some cycle parking.
There is a lack of a dropped kerb to allow access to the canal towpath at the end of the car park at Firhill. A temporary ramp has been provided, but this is possibly related to the construction work on the bridge to the Claypits nature res ... [more]
A new canal towpath access point has been created at the Centre81 community centre in Whitecrook. UPDATE: Now open.
A new steps and ramp access to the canal towpath is being built at the Centre81 community centre in Whitecrook. The towpath here has been resurfaced over a short distance.
The path on the north side of the Forth & Clyde Canal at Linnvale has a loose gravel surface, while the direct route to Strauss Avenue is just a grass path.
Lack of verge trimming has lead to the LED catseyes being, in a number of cases like here on the left, completely covered over.
The little bridge across the Forth & Clyde Canal in Clydebank appears to have stuck. Access is still available across the main bridge at the shopping centre, but this is often busy with pedestrians, making this a preferred route for cycling ... [more]
Elesmere wharf on the Llangollen canal is a picnic-lunch stop for a ride along ncn 455; nice weather for it too.
NCN route 52 leaves the towpath and crosses the Coventry Canal here (there are good local route signs, but not so many for the national route).
Nice canalside development, with an unbroken fence and a hedge being grown to prevent access to NCN route 52 by the Coventry Canal. Bizarre.
No Entry - but cyclists should presumably use the footway on the left to the start of NCN route 52 by the Coventry Canal
The Boquhanran Road underpass beneath the Forth & Clyde Canal. I'm sure the road network would still function if this was shut to motor traffic and a more suitable surface laid for safer cycling.
Maybe it's because I don't enter Speirs Wharf from Craighall Road very often, but I almost cycled down the cobbled slope since I was this time going to turn left down the ramp to Garscube Road. The layout here could be better. The steps ... [more]
Again I forgot to approach this gate on the footway, since there is no dropped kerb to assist with getting around it from the carriageway.
Etihad Stadium near velodrome. Path closed here, no further progress westbound from here. No warning and sign says exit the path here but there is NO exit here. Need to backtrack to steps onto Joe Mercer Way or all the way back to Alan Turi ... [more]
The resurfaced section of the Forth & Clyde Canal towpath will tie into the work at Stockingfield Junction, where a bridge is being built across the canal.
Although the main towpath has been resurfaced, nothing has been done about the poor connection from the towpath to the path to Vaila Street. In addition to local access, this is important for making connections between the canal and Summers ... [more]
The signs for the Forth & Clyde Canal diversion (see #155655) are no longer pointing the correct ways.
Still no connection between the towpath and Great Western Road on the south side of the dual carriageway. But a clear worn desire line up the embankment. The north side access at #145337 is left on, left off on the eastbound carriageway, ... [more]
The lack of sweeping on the canal path means the LED catseyes are starting to disappear into the extended verge.
Signage relating to the Stockingfield Junction canal towpath closure for construction of a new bridge.
The Forth & Clyde Canal towpath is now shut at Stockingfield Junction for construction of a new bridge. Signed diversions have been put in place. In the opposite direction, the closure is at Ruchill Street. On the opposite bank, the path ... [more]
A map showing the full diversion route for the Stockingfield canal towpath closure. Similar signs are located at the Kelvin Aqueduct and at Stockingfield Junction itself, possibly elsewhere too. The canal towpath is open up to Stockingfi ... [more]
Permanent route signs and temporary diversion signs relating to the Stockingfield canal path closure, but who would know? The temporary diversion signs should be yellow. The canal towpath is open up to Stockingfield Junction, but only to ... [more]
