Very tight chicane by a walkway between buildings - a necessary measure with these desire and sight lines.

#166251, nearby

Really pleased to have influenced the reinstatement of these bollards after their temporary removal. Got them put back with a 1.5m gap either side of the central bollard, rather than 4 separate 1m gaps that were there before 😊 #LittleVic ... [more]

The chicane has been lengthened making it much more pleasant for cycling 🤗 because it does not require a sharp turn. I suppose it also easier for motorcycles too 🤭. This is a great improvement over previously, see #49119.

1980s LTN facilitated by this simple gate. This is widely supported and there is no movement to remove these. Would be good to replace this with a more accessible bollard.

Northern side of Cutter Ferry Bridge over the River Cam. It is good to see that there is no bollard in the middle of the path. In the past there was a single bollard in the middle. Since the ramp is less than 3m wide this meant the ga ... [more]

Great to see some bollards go in to prevent pavement parking on West St @TowerHamletsNow . I wonder how much installation of each bollard costs to stop drivists... https://t.co/6ROCy2c3Bj

The chicanes here are to dissuade cyclists from the steep bank just after, and that is probably a good thing and anyway there is quite a good nearby alternative just a little further.

Old Leicester and Swannington railway line, now a cycleway. Access barriers designed to allow for horses and cycles to pass.

Well-placed bollard at the end of the new connection to Red Cross Lane. Strange & unnecessary but harmless give way markings, I suppose.

Low white concrete bollards allow cyclists to pass while preventing motor vehicles crossing the bridge. A far superior solution than the kissing gate at the other end of the bridge

#85470, nearby

Previously locked central gate removed, removing need for cyclists to open sprung side gate. Planter boxes obstruct central gate enough to prevent motor vehicle access, but not enough to stop footway parking alongside. See also #85471.

Barrier keeps out motor vehicles - but gap is wide enough for cyclists to ride through.

Gate prevents motor vehicle access to Green Lane - and there is a nice wide gap for cyclists to ride past.

Bollars at new entrance placed sensibly, preventing car access

#83845, nearby

Choice of by-way or bridleway. We chose the bridleway. It looks well-cared-for here, and the sign asks you to kindly close the gate.

At last, Tesco have discovered it is possible to drive an extra 10m up the road to avoid blocking the cycle lane on East Road
