The incorrect tactile paving (corduroy in place of cycleway) is still in place on Old Dumbarton Road.
The Old Dumbarton Road cycleway still has incorrect corduroy (Hazard) tactile paving, and for some manoeuvers from Bunhouse Road, it is so close to the junction that cyclists will still be turning when crossing it. Leaf and other autumn ... [more]

[Image taken 25.11.21] Manor Lane, junction with Eccles Close, York. 'Relaxed' or 'wide' corduroy. I am aware I am riding over it but it does not impact on my movement, my confidence or the handling of my cycle. Compare with 'skinny' cordur ... [more]
[Image taken 25.11.21] Clifton Moor Gate, close to junction with Oakdale Road, York. Location of: #176154, #176155. The tactile paving is required as people can leave/join the route via the pedestrian crossing the light paving/dropped kerb ... [more]

The lining on the new Old Dumbarton Road cycle track has been done, for the section that is complete (either end is still in construction), but there is still no way of crossing the road from the Bunhouse Road shared footway due to kerbs. T ... [more]
The correct Cycleway tactile slabs have arrived in North Canal Bank Street and await fitting in place of the incorrect corduroy Hazard tactiles.
A section of new road linking Cable Depot Road to the Clydebank College area. This section is as yet unopened. Here the road is raised to footway level, and corduroy tactiles are used to mark the limit of the carriageway.
A new toucan crossing next to Miller Street. The carriageway has been raised to the same level as the footway, and corduroy tactile paving is used to mark the edge of the footway since the kerb is flush.
South City Way at Bowman Street. In theory, it appears they expect cycles to be able to access the side road, but no dropped kerb has been provided to get from the cycle track onto the shared footway. And no provision for right turns or goi ... [more]

The new cycle track along Old Dumbarton Road. In addition to the top surface (in the foreground) not being machine laid, the tactiles are incorrect Corduroy/Hazard type and not the Tramlines/Cycleway type. Being at the foot of a hill, these ... [more]
Now arriving in Ely - first ride through the A10 underpass which was delivered as part of the Leisure Complex. https://t.co/Aunbi6tefw
NCN668 continues to the left here (I missed the turn as there is no signage), Leeds Update 2021-11-12 16:01:33: we've heard that there are now signs here.
Welcome distraction from politics this morning. This is a new piece of infrastructure. This is a pile of shit. https://t.co/H6b5izZ7od
The path from the Waterloo Road car park ends at the Aldi car park, but another path connects across to Ferncliffe Road. Corduroy 'hazard' tactiles have been used in place of cycleway tactiles.
Nice looking cycleway here - but follow it and it gives up near the junction ahead. Also that sign on the left has the transport modes the wrong way round (but at least it is off the path).
The plans show a parallel cycle/zebra crossing to go in here. Incorrect corduroy tactiles have been used.
Corduroy tactiles were specified in the drawings and corduroy tactiles were duly installed, rather than cycleway tactiles.
A really weird way to create a pedestrian crossing of a cycleway. Basically, there's a short segment of shared-use. As a result there's an overusage of tactile pads. TSRGD 16 now allows Zebra crossings without Belisha beacons to be deplo ... [more]
A nice replacement bridge over the River Colne, but a pity about the tactiles being the wrong type. The sign reads "Please give way to pedestrians on bridge".

The Clyde Street cycleway approaching crossing across to Carlton Place. Incorrect corduroy tactiles have been used.
Milton Keynes pernicious signage that suggests that this cycleway is only for the walker, that is backed up by the way the corduroy paving is laid. Also unusual here is the sign that is folded in the closed position.
See clip at http://youtu.be/gOeMarpER4A Some of the barriers have been removed to make this route accessible by cargo bikes and child carriers. About time, given it goes to a local primary school!
Cycle lane between pavement and bus-stop. I wasn't impressed with this facility, until I found myself using it the other day, travelling west-bound to Leisure park cycle racks. It only really has use for reaching / leaving Leisure park: ... [more]
Elephants footprint crossing leads cyclists onto a cycle lane on the wrong side of a dual carriageway.
Two cycle tracks? which side are pedestrians meant to be on?? Ed: The corduroy paving suggests the left side is for cyclilng and the right for walking.
Tactile paving is just a pointless nuisance unless it is installed correctly. Worse, it will confuse the people that it is supposed to help. This is an example of how people put tactiles down without bothering to find out how it is suppo ... [more]
This is a classic - how do you cycle along this strategic local cycle route? Better barriers are required!
