#107155, nearby

A big improvement on the old crossing, which required you to lift the bike over. These gates appear to be controlled by magnetic lock (I didn't look closely but there's an odd lump on the side of each one).

#102877, nearby

The John Muir Way in Bo'ness has been resurfaced with smooth asphalt, and solar LED catseyes for lighting. However, the level crossing kissing gates remain.

Norton Level Crossing allows cycles, but not motor vehicles, so acts as a modal filter preventing through traffic on Red Brow Lane.

#84320, nearby

Solar powered LED and reflective edge of cycleway stud. It is used here to mark the way across a level crossing, but could be used much more widely to mark the edges of unlit cycleways.

#84319, nearby

A rare example of a properly justified "Cyclists Dismount" sign at the level crossing.

Kissing gates at railway crossing on John Muir Way.

#82539, nearby

Level crossing at Aspley Guise station.

#82457, nearby

Very odd - No Motor Vehicles signs on the righthand side of the road - is this so that cyclists can get ahead of the cars queueing at the level crossing?

#74085, nearby

Cottonmill Lane level crossing, St Albans. Just off NCN6 and NCN61, where the Green Ring heads off towards Verulamium Park.

#72888, nearby

Bikes locked to railings at Victoria Metrolink, but no obvious provision of any cycle parking stands.

#72886, nearby

Cycleway crosses 4-track tramway with just a forest of signs and a 'Give Way' triangle. No flashing amber tram crossing signals like elsewhere in the city centre, despite the complex and potentially confusing arrangement. The central refuge ... [more]

Bizarre routing of cyclists on Long Millgate between tramway crossing and link road to Corporation Street. The second cycle route sign appears to be sending cyclists up a one-way street the wrong way! This could have been designed far bette ... [more]

Garve Level Crossing Location: , Garve (Scotland, United Kingdom) Sign instructing cyclists to walk across the tracks at Garve level crossing due to the high skew the rails are at to the road.

#60681, nearby

Multi-stage caged toucan crossing across tramway and dual carriageway on South Gyle Broadway. It's clear what the local council's priorities are here. The observant will notice that the crossing call-button panel is for a pedestrian cros ... [more]

#60680, nearby

More cabinets (see #60679) on approach to toucan crossing and tramway level crossing.

#60141, nearby

'One of the closest near misses' http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cambridgeshire-24562951 I wonder if one reason this happened was that she regularly took a risk here and became de-sensitized to the danger?

#60140, nearby

See http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-dorset-28170665 It says that 25,000 people per day walk across this level crossing. It is a headache for the rail company - but they've decided that they can't do anything more about it to improve ... [more]

#59787, nearby

Manned level crossing at Norbury.

#59200, nearby

Barriers at the end of the path where it meets a very minor road

#59199, nearby

A rather pointless gate across part of the path. Surely a drop-bollard would do.

#55798, nearby

Southbound on Strand Road, cyclists are expected to ride on the footway and dismount to cross the level crossing. None did in the time I was there.

#55797, nearby

The cycle lane bends to allow cyclists a crossing across the railway track that is closer to a right angle, to minimise the risk of being thrown off.

#55794, nearby

Mandatory Left Turn signs used at location where cycle route turns left.

#55262, nearby

Leaving Preston Marina doesn't involve crossing the railway tracks on the bridge. Advertising aimed at cyclists for nearby café.

#55261, nearby

Route sign where cycle path recommences after the bridge in #55260. But getting to it from the roadway involves a detour around the end of the railing.

#55260, nearby

Red sign reads "Cyclists are advised to dismount and cross the bridge on pedestrian footways". It may be more effective to warn cyclists to take care crossing the railway tracks. Perhaps a sign like in #19642.

#55259, nearby

Cyclists have been directed to use the pedestrians only route across the bridge rather than the roadway

#55257, nearby

Cyclists are encouraged to use route on which cycling is not allowed! This path leads to #55259. Red sign reads "Cyclists are advised to dismount and cross the bridge on pedestrian footways". The blue 'Cyclists Dismount' sign can be seen ... [more]

Lots of signs at level crossing

Level crosssing on Teversham Road, Fulbourn.

#52591, nearby

Stop, Look, Listen - level crossing with sprung gates leading to NCN 62

#51788, nearby

Is it really necessary to have so many signs repeating the warning about the tramway crossing? If safety has been an issue then put in some flashing lights like other tramways have at crossings.

#51787, nearby

The cycle route doesn't even go over the tram tracks and yet there's still a Cyclists Dismount sign!

A level crossing at the bottom of a hill, BRAKE!!!!
