Narrow path

You had thought that people would work out to give space in this difficult time. Not here though. Here's @jrhoardingltd illegally blocking the cycle access across Newmarket Rd. Driving into this site through here has been expressly … [more]

@IanGManning @camcycle Any idea how we can deal with this blatant illegal parking? It's not isolated, it's parked up here a lot. https://t.co/WZRZZ9MRu6

Another example of the poor cycle infra in the Newmarket Road retail park. The driver just pulls up and stops (without indicating to traffic behind) in the cyclelane and the passenger opens the door straight away. This, combined with … [more]

Here's a follow up on http://cambridge.cyclestreets.net/location/47766/ This bit of the Newmarket Park and Ride cyclepath is just getting worse and worse. The layer of mud is thick and very slippy. Surely the whole point of making this … [more]

UPDATE: Change of hatch direction! http://cambridge.cyclestreets.net/location/54865/ See clip at http://youtu.be/Uj3gxhg0Vio This is meant to be a serious bit of cycling infrastructure to enable bikes to cross the very hostile Newmarket … [more]
