The South City Way at the five-way junction at the Brazen Head pub. There used to be 'Ahead Only' signs on the traffic signals for traffic coming from the Pollokshaws Road contraflow bus-lane, but now there are only green arrows on the … [more]
The South City Way cycleway now complete on Victoria Bridge. This is where it ends for now, until the section into the Merchant City via Bridgegate is built.
The South City Way cycleway finally complete past the Sheriff Court. However, the contraflow bus lane signs along this section are now out of date and need replaced.
The South City Way cycleway has been closed by roadworks. No diversion is signed, and from this direction it is less obvious what to do. The traffic cone on the pedestrian refuge and the sign on the cycleway cause obstruction. The 'ahead … [more]
The South City Way cycleway closed by roadworks, but the main carriageway is unaffected. As the cycleway has an 'ahead only' restriction at the junction, a slip into the Advance Stop Line on the main carriageway has been provided for right … [more]
The South City Way cycleway closed by roadworks at Norfolk Court. There is no signed diversion, but it should be obvious to most to divert via the main carriageway.
A connection from the South City Way cycleway to Cleland Street. But parking in the contraflow cycle lane is still a problem.
Bedford Lane has been closed to motor vehicles, so the cycleway runs uninterrupted past the junction.
A connection from the South City Way cycleway over to the site to the east, replacing the lane seen in #93385.
The sign says 'Cycle Lane Closed Ahead' but the section has far as Bedford Lane is as good as open. The closure is at Norfolk Court. No diversion information is given, but the only likely diversion is into the main carriageway, so this sign … [more]
Pollokshaws Road shut at the M77 motorway bridge for roadworks. It is possible to get around the closure on the western footway.
A van driver obstructing cyclists by parking on the South City Way cycleway and footway. There is a parking space just along the road to the right.
View from the (not quite open yet) cycle path this morning. Queen's Park to Glasgow city centre route almost complete from the looks of things. Markings & street trees being added now all the way up to the river. #SouthCityWay … [more]
Work continues on the Gorbals Street cycleway, which will form part of the South City Way. Here on Victoria Bridge where work presently ends.
Work continues on the Gorbals Street cycleway, which will form part of the South City Way. This is the toucan crossing where NCN756, the South Bank cycle route, crosses.
Work continues on the Gorbals Street cycleway, which will form part of the South City Way. A floating parking bay and bus stop can be seen here.
The South City Way cycle route construction is at least now happening on Gorbals Street and Victoria Bridge. While the cycle lane is shut, some cyclists ride on the road, some on the footway.
And hit some Friday rush hour traffic on the South City Way!!! 😁 @SouthSeeds @SCWFriends https://t.co/o5v1fCyVW7
Good to see SCW being well-used this morning. Just a shame they had to wait two and a half full cycles of the lights before being able to cross https://t.co/cyl5jW5cYX
Surrey Street has had a cycle connection to Pollokshaws Road ever since this end of the street was closed to motor traffic as part of the Route Action Plan programme, but it is not clear how one is to join the South City Way cycle tracks.
Cycling in the cycle lane on Gorbals Street. The taxi driver driving behind the bus then barged through this group of four cyclists to park in the layby. The permanent cycle provision for this road can't come soon enough!
The northbound South City Way cycle track is now operating at the Cumberland Street junction, but the southbound is closed off awaiting the installation of the two-way cycle track in Gorbals Street. The junction is marked as being for … [more]
The connection to Surrey Street from the South City Way cycle track on Pollokshaws Road is no longer marked (as it was previously, see #37220), but is implied with a dropped kerb available (although part of a pedestrian crossing) and ends … [more]
Cycle parking stands next to the South City Way on Victoria Road. The spacing could be better, and that big sign will get in the way of pedals.
South City Way at Bowman Street. In theory, it appears they expect cycles to be able to access the side road, but no dropped kerb has been provided to get from the cycle track onto the shared footway. And no provision for right turns or … [more]
Calder Street tie-in to the South City Way on Victoria Road. See also #167148. The parking bay is at least wider than the van for a change.
The South City Way cycle route on Victoria Road. Note how the right hand side of the cycle track gets narrower over the width of the road crossing. The markings should guide cyclists away from this area, where the kerb has upstand as the … [more]
At most of the toucan crossings on the South City Way, the cycle track is flush with the footway adjacent to the crossing, but at this one, on this side only, the cycle track dips down below the kerb height, creating a step down, just where … [more]
Flashing electronic signs has been installed at some junctions on Victoria Road to warn motorists of the presence of cyclists. This is activated by a detector in the cycle track.
Work blocking the South City Way cycle track on Pollokshaws Road, and also showing the general layout at toucan crossings along the route.
A dropped kerb for cycling from Cavendish Street towards the South City Way, but now it is aligned with a large patch of grass, so requires awkward turns to get around.
Cycle parking and a public workstand at Cavendish Street, but no dropped kerb to leave the South City Way cycle track to get to them. There used to be a dropped kerb and painted cycle track linking Pollokshaws Road and Cavendish Street … [more]
The section of cycle track on the traffic island between Pollokshaws Road and Cathcart Road has been marked with red surface, unlike anything else in the South City Way to date. Work continues.
The South City Way taking shape at the transition between two-way and one-way cycle tracks at the north end of Pollokshaws Road. I'm not convinced the layout will be used as the designer intended. Surprisingly, no use has been made of the … [more]
The painted cycle lane on Gorbals Street zig-zags around some parking bays before returning to the kerbside.
Cycling on Gorbals Street. A two-way facility is due to be built as part of the South City Way, so this is temporary.
I know this is temporary, but I think more effort could be made to tidy up this transition between the South City Way cycle track and the road at the north end of Pollokshaws Road.
@GlasgowCC @SustransScot That's great! But why the parking spots just down the road before the British Linen Building? They have not been there before, there is no need and it generates a dangerous bottleneck between opening car doors on … [more]
Just after taking this a cyclist went by and narrowly avoided a car turning across the cycle path which was unable to see because of the van being 'parked' like this. Its genuinely no exaggeration to say that a cyclist will be seriously … [more]
Here we go... problem is still happening, how long will it take the council to respond to a letter on the issue? 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ @f0rmat @CyclingSurgeon @GoBikeGlasgow @SustransScot @GlasgowCC May I add before I got my bus today, there was van … [more]
Thank you Glasgow City Council for building new cycle lanes on Victoria Road. Is there anyway you could stop vehicles using them as parking spaces? @GlasgowCC @Chris_Boardman @chrishoy @policescotland https://t.co/RBjTJ77OXk
Hey @networkrail I know you guys think you are special and can park anywhere, but you cant. This is a segregated bike lane that your vehicle is parked in, the SCW, Pollokshaws Road, one of the few in Glasgow. Get it moved. @GlasgowCC … [more]
2/4 Others have discussed the left hook risk to cyclists at the Devon St junction @GoBikeGlasgow eg https://t.co/hsiql8duc7. Today I was nearly left-hooked by a council vehicle overtaking and turning in front of me into Torrisdale St. The … [more]
They're still at it @AnnaLangside @GoBikeGlasgow @GlasgowCC Really think the segregation needs to be more substantial https://t.co/08xkctm49Z
People are already (unofficially) using the southbound cycleway, before merging back into the roadway. #SouthCityWay https://t.co/K9QjAyXTDz
Fabulous to see the progress with Glasgow's South City Way on my commute. Well rolled surface, low chamfered kerb = good pedal clearance to maximise width, generous angles and, of course, it will be uni-directional. #stepchange in street … [more]
Reported this on Victoria Bridge months ago... still there & getting worse. Lethal to cyclists. #GlasgowCycleInfraDay17 @GlasgowCC https://t.co/OsKCl7IJk5
