[Image taken on 7.5.22] Bootham Bar/St Leonard’s Place, York. This junction is a typical CYC 'fudge'. CYC is unable or unwilling to understand that its policy of 'shoehorning' (my term) is not a solution or even a compromise. All users … [more]

[Image taken 10.7.21] Marygate car park, York. [Note: There is no street view at this location.] The lighting was not on, on the hoardings again today. For once I was able to get an image that shows how dark it is. (The lights don't … [more]

What is the point of these cyclelanes? Is it just a tickbox exercise for the local authorities, claiming they are spending money on cycle infrastructure? It's a complete waste of time.

Design fail: When there's a bus waiting at the rising bollard / traffic signal the exit from this cycle slipway is blocked.

Effectively the end of the new cycleway alongside St Rollox Drive, with no way back onto the road and only a connection to the old footpath. UPDATE 2021: The path has now been extended, see #170148.

Infra stops functioning when 4+ cyclists (never mind pedestrians) use it at once. Built to fail. https://t.co/SKX6GH02q2 [See also #80717]

See clip at https://youtu.be/LiNXfp00R4o Another new poor development for no reason whatsoever.

Having put off people riding to their store by hiding the cycle parking, Waitrose are now making use of the freed up stands by storing their trolleys in the empty stands.

Sign post planted in cycle track on A565 dual carriageway

A grim, rusty chicane reinforces the unfriendly message from the absence of a dropped kerb that this useful cut through is not meant for pesky cyclists - or anyone else in a wheeled vehicle. I cannot immediately see any reason why this … [more]

Route sign directs cyclists along road where cycling is not allowed! See #53813.

Signing #fail with cycle route signed through road where vehicles are prohibited except for access to properties on that road. The new path goes as far as the equestrian centre.

Wall of buses in Oxford Street. #transportplanning #fail http://t.co/rpK8Q3P6HQ

Abell Way, where the Authorities allow the residents to park across the cycle path than have to put their cars in own drive/garage or even park on the road. Cycle network completely useless on this & adjoining roads due to this behaviour.

Gallagher Estate thrived at making Orchard Park car centric. There are very few gardens and few green spaces, everything is paved over to provide space for cars. Southcam cycleparking standards however are insufficient. Bike chained against … [more]

Useless cycle lanes #1 Location: Newhaven, Edinburgh (Scotland, United Kingdom) Why bother? Does this help anyone? No. You've got to feel sorry for the people who have to paint these bizarre white lines. Can anyone think this is useful to … [more]

Gully installed the wrong way round in Glasgow City Council's "Copenhagan-style" London Road cycle track. The slots should go across-the-ways so skinny tyres don't get stuck.
