Shared-use route from Whittlesford to the Imperial War Museum Duxford

Route from Whittlesford to the Imperial War Museum Duxford

Route from Whittlesford to the Imperial War Museum Duxford

A sign to Sawston has been added!

Terrible infrastructure on NCN route 11 - there's shared-use footway where it's not needed (and no dropped kerb) and then you're thrown out onto the road where a cycleway to Station Road would actually be useful.

Traffic-calming with a wide clear cycle bypass - the two to the north are nearer trees and are not so clear.

Two-tier covered cycle parking at Whittlesford Parkway station - Sheffield stands are available elsewhere.

The north-south cycle route is fairly clear, but there's no indication that this is a shared-use route to Whittlesford Parkway station.

Cycle parking crisis at Whittlesford “Parkway” Station.

There isn't actually a through route here - better to stay on the road to Whittlesford church.

There is no through route here - far better to turn right to the road.

Who says there are no potholes in the Tory villages?

Cycleway from Whittlesford to Sawston

One example of a very poor pass, several more here. http://radwagon.blogspot.co.uk/2016/08/ncn11-south-from-cambridge-part-2.html#Bypass (Date could be 1 or 2 days out, time is correct.)

A ride to celebrate the opening of the new route between Wandlebury and the Babraham Institute. Exploring the routes south of Babraham.

See clip at http://youtu.be/HoxQee2Gom4 "Highway code rule 163". http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_070314 Written numberplate on trailer is not legible either.

The signs from #33032. Could do with being rationalised (a new NCN11 sign has been tacked on the bottom) and the road sign to the station is looking rather tatty. However, they're all useless thanks to the tree that hides them!

Cycle (and other road) signs. Honest. Includes a new NCN11 sign. See #33033.

You have to use a footpath to reach this point, the start of the new cycle route from Whittlesford to Sawston.

It'd be very easy to put in a cyclable link here. [In 2019 this is actually signed as NCN route 11, but there still isn't a through route]

There should be some indication that this road leads to the new Whittlesford to Sawston cycle path.

Two sets of cycle parking at the Imperial War Museum, Duxford

Not only is cycling not allowed, it seems even pedestrians aren't allowed on the path! See also #31783

Drop kerbs needed on the M11 slip roads at Duxford. And surely the 'No Pedestrians' sign should be with the 'National Speed Limit' sign, on the far side of the footway?

Drob kerbs needed at the M11 slip roads at Duxford

At New Road, Whittlesford, the shared-use cycle route by the A505 ends, but an asphalted footpath continues to the M11 and Imperial War Museum.
