The route across the vacant ground leads directly to the shops and the toucan crossing across Nitshill Road. This will be lost if the land is redeveloped without a formal path being formed.

The waste ground between Nitshill Road and the path to Woodhead Road needs tidying up and a formal path established.

Although the connection from Woodhead Road leads to Dove Street, more people seem to use it to get to Nitshill Road, over the adjoining waste ground. This connection has been in use for many years.

Titan Boulevard forms a through route for cycling from the new Clydebank riverside towards the canal at the town centre, via Hume Street visible in the background.

The path from Abbotsinch Road to Inchinnan Road at the bascule bridge. The cycleway effectively ends at the bridge and it's onto the road for Renfrew and Glasgow, although a riverside path route starts on the other side of the river that … [more]

Van and car parking on the (presumably shared use) footway connecting the Craighall Road toucan crossing to the Forth & Clyde Canal at Speirs Wharf. The car is also blocking a dropped kerb (the dropped kerb can be seen better in #188011).

A new street in Clydebank, Titan Boulevard, at last providing a high quality walking and cycling connection between Clydebank College and the town centre, lining up with Hume Street and Abbotsford Road to link to the canal towpath.

It's great that the path from Netherton Road to the Forth & Clyde Canal towpath has been widened and resurfaced, but those bollards are just in the way at the point of a blind corner. Put them at the road end of the path where they would be … [more]

Bad tree root damage to the path down from Campbell Street to the Stockingfield Bridge. While not ever going to be a main access route, it is still one that will be used by local people and this damage should have been addressed.

[Image taken 23.4.22] Malton Road close to junction with New Lane, Huntington, York. A toucan crossing. Access is tricky (see: #181985) and you have to know it is here. I didn't. I only saw it existed a week ago when someone cycled over … [more]

[Image taken 23.4.22] New Lane, junction with Malton Road, Huntington, York. A substandard (very narrow) link (with a very tight turn) from the ASL (see: #181984 and links) on New Lane to the eastern side of Malton Road. Other images in … [more]

The path from the Forth & Clyde Canal footbridge at Old Farm Road over to Netherton Road is in a very poor condition (still). What doesn't show up in the photograph is the step between the asphalt surface and the washed-out unsealed path.

End of Kingscliffe Road, Grantham

The Nicholson Street cycle track has lost its signs, has faded markings, and is being used for car and van parking, and is being illegally driven through. Just next to the Sheriff Court! The link was put in to provide a safe link between … [more]

The contraflow cycle lane on Norfolk Street exists to provide a link from Coburg Street at the back of Bridge Street Subway station to the east.

The cycle track at Herbertson Street forms part of a link from Eglinton Street to Norfolk Street eastbound, but there is no assistance for making the initial right turn from Eglinton Street other than the right turn lane for the Coburg … [more]

Van parking obstructing the path between Renfrew Street and St Georges Road at Charing Cross.

The tie-in between the bottom of the new ramp down from the Forth and Clyde Canal to Garscube Road is poor. A kerb blocks the entrance to the ramp from Firhill Road and a ramp has been provided facing Firhill Road but this appears to be for … [more]

A new canal towpath access point has been created at the Centre81 community centre in Whitecrook. UPDATE: Now open.

[Image taken 6.6.21] Link between Foss Islands cycle route and Wigginton Road. The image doesn't do it justice. Tranquil, shaded but not dark or dank. Other flowery locations, other dates: #169771

The path connecting Cogan Street and Shawbridge Street has been laid out for pedestrian use only, but provides a route to and from the retail park that avoids Nether Auldhouse Road, so would be useful for cycling too. Although there is a … [more]

A cycle link between Milngavie Road and Macfarlane Road. Each bollard displays a different sign.

It would be useful for east-west journeys to have a proper connection between Hawthorn Street and Campsie Street (which leads to Wallacewell Road). But at present, the most direct connection is a gravel path between the footways of Atlas … [more]

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 … [more]

[Update: #169455] [Image taken 27.1.21] A Council officer said it was "a lot of work" to get this link installed retrospectively between two retail parks in Clifton Moor, York. However, signage was limited and did not give information about … [more]

[Image taken 27.1.21] York, Clifton Moor retail park near Dunelm furniture and home furnishing outlet. The shared use link on the far side of the crossing looks like a service road to the rear of industrial units. In fact, as the new sign … [more]

[Update see: #169455] [Image taken 27.1.21] New sign for a shared use link at York, Clifton Moor. The sign (installed 18.1.21) tells people there is a reason to explore the link route. Therefore the new sign benefits the retail outlets on … [more]

The ramp at Glendinning Road is still steep and poorly surfaced. There's plenty of room here for a decent ramp to be built.

No dropped kerb at the start of a path connecting Collina Street near new housing development to the Forth & Clyde Canal and Maryhill Road. The path is in poor condition and has some shallow steps in it too.

A connection from Bantaskin Street to Cowal Road, although there is no formal crossing across the latter, and not even a dropped kerb there. Should the awkward bit of the Kelvin Walkway (at #100566) ever be rebuilt, this will be the … [more]
