[Image taken 14.4.21] Sheffields (racks) at Monks Cross, (Huntington), York. The aisle (gap between the racks) is just 187cm wide. There was no room for me to be able to reverse out without lifting my cycle. For a second view of this site … [more]

Pretty small lifts at Bury St Edmunds station too

How is it that Prestatyn station has an adequately sized lift and Cambridge of all places does not?

Lift down to the Greenwich Foot Tunnel

Loads of space in the lift at Leeds station - a lesson for those who gave us the tiny ones at Cambridge

This is what station lifts should be like - a lesson for those who fitted the tiny ones at Cambridge.

The lifts are too short for a bike (about 62" or less than 1.60 m). They also force users wheeling their luggage, trolley or bike in to exit backwards. These lifts should be about 1/3 deeper, with an exit on the opposite end, like most … [more]

The vertical lift bridge from 1927 presents a bottleneck for different types of traffic in all directions. But once the bridge is lowered cyclists are the first to cross it as shown in this video. See also raised bridge … [more]

Squeezing into the lift - three bikes can just fit into the lift - if you weren't friends before, you soon will be.

New lifts for the Audley End station footbridge. The shape of the lift seemed to be square. The width of the entrance door is 1.1 metres and I'd estimate the dimensions inside are 1.6 metres square with a 12 cm door recess. (These figures … [more]
