The Halfpenny Bridge, built in 2001 for the Trans Pennine Trail (NCN route 6)
Another example of the high standards that Bury Council maintains on this otherwise good cycleway. Who wouldn't want to cycle through a huge quagmire of mud, eh?
And to those who aren't familiar with the route - there's a paved cycleway
Who has priority? I really dislike the ambiguity at this *brand new* side road crossing in Beeston! https://t.co/UCNwpUqlI2

Annoying End of Route sign, particularly if you actually wanted to follow NCN route 6 somewhere worthwhile - obviously the sign should just tell cyclists to continue across the zebra crossing.
Shared-use footway and crossing towards Kendal station
Cyclists do have the option of turning right onto the shared-use footway towards Kendal station
The road markings tell cyclists to turn right from the left-hand side of the lane - potentially disastrous.
So much for Keep Clear markings on NCN route 6 in Kendal

Developers have provided a footway for 150m north on NCN route 6 - they should have done a proper job and linked up with the existing shared-use path.
Developers have provided a footway for another 150m south on NCN route 6 - they should have done a proper job and extended the shared-use path.

A route sign for the Trans Pennine Trail. The red background for the NCN 6 number has faded out.

The 'no through road' is also the Trans Pennine Trail.
Waiting for the toucan crossing across Sheaf Street to change. It did take a while. Across the road is the city's railway station.
Was the budget for the Cobweb Bridge so tight there was no money left for a proper sign at the turn, hence the use of Sustrans stickers?
