And suddenly with nothing changed (and no tactile paving fitted) the crossing that was unusable for at least 5 months seems to be open - see #193996
What on earth is going on here? Or rather not going on - this zebra crossing has been closed for about 5 months, maybe because some tactile paving is missing.
This new zebra crossing has been out of use for over a month now - it looks as if they forgot the tactile paving on this side (the far side is ok).
This new zebra crossing has been out of use for at least 20 days now - but of course people are crossing anyway.
[Image taken 10.11.22] Station Road, York. Compare the visibility of this events sign with this one from 2021: #175806. And consider the effect of putting it on (existing) poles rather than on the pavement (compare with this image also from … [more]

There is briefly no walkway on either side of Station Road in Cambridge. Has anything been done to provide safe space for pedestrians on the carriageway? Nope.
Road works by Cambridge Water at the Station Road/Hills Road junction - luckily many people are working from home. It would be nice to think that the dreadful potholes will be properly fixed, but I'm not optimistic.

There have been some repairs to the disaster that is Station Road in Cambridge - it remains to be seen how well they last.
There have been some repairs to the disaster that is Station Road in Cambridge - it remains to be seen how well they last.
Advanced cycle lights have appeared at the Station Rd/Hills Road junction - with a surprisingly long period before the main light turns green.
Two or three holes on Station Road have been marked in yellow for repair - which is a total insult to all of us who have to tackle the road on anything less than a full-suspension mountain bike.

Hatching on Station Road warning of potential dooring. Example of where this is not done: https://twitter.com/ronniemushiso/status/1439697913161129988
Optimistic sign saying that these new cycle stands are not for the use of rail travellers. I'm afraid that train has already departed...
The new cycle parking on Station Road is finally in use and the 'security' guards have been sent elsewhere.
Dooring zone markings on the newly resurfaced Station Road, Cambridge - cyclists are entitled to keep well to the right.
The whole of Station Road is a disaster for cycling - but for some reason they've resurfaced the Tenison Road junction.
Station Road will be awful until redevelopment is finished (if ever), but this pothole does need fixing.
Access to the station cycle parking closed off with no alternative route yet signposted - although there are marshalls ready to direct cyclists.
New poles (which will eventually indicate the new route to the station cycle parking) immediately used for a failed attempt at cycle parking.
The road is collapsing and will continue to do so until a) it's properly rebuilt and b) the Cambridge station area development is finished.
Given that this is about 200m from Cambridge station, why were Microsoft surprised that people wanted to lock their bikes here? - as the metalwork's only purpose is to protect the tree, it would have been far better to have designed it for … [more]
