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.

#94884, nearby

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

#93667, nearby

Generous chicane where cycleway meets road.

#93325, nearby

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

#91321, nearby

Bike racks overflowing at 8pm (compare previous photo #91320).

Decent bollards in the back pathway to Shire Hall

Bollards with reflective strips.

#87431, nearby

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.

#85357, nearby

Posts with reflective strips prevent motor vehicle access to Woolston Park while presenting no obstacle for cyclists.

Gate prevents motor access but is easily avoided by cyclists.

#84330, nearby

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

#84261, nearby

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

#92748, nearby

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.

#81445, nearby

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

Bollard now installed to enforce restriction, preventing rat-running. Compare #33218.

The unusually generous chicane (thanks by the way, don't take it away) at Peter's field.

#68392, nearby

Generous chicanes at crossing of minor road just right to slow cyclists where the walls make blind corners.

#67971, nearby

Recently added self shutting gate at Romsey Rec - a good idea for slowing down bikes onto this park at a blind corner. It is probably a bit of a pain for wheelchair / mobility scooters when approaching from the side where the gate opens ... [more]

A gate designed to deter wide vehicles but accommodate bikes.

Bicycle permeable barriers at this end of the Middlewood Way. I think the bit on the right is for horses to step over.

Straight-forward gap beside gate at cycle path access

#53200, nearby

This gate easy to get around without hindering path users too much, but enough to slow users down at road crossing

Cycleway in Kempston, Bedford.

#51122, nearby

Chisholm Trail - section of the Travis Perkins Depot planning application to be safeguarded.

#51121, nearby

Bateman St mandatory counterflow cycle lane is frequently blocked by workmen's vans, but this one has left space for East-bound cyclists, while still allowing motor vehicles through.

Bateman St mandatory counterflow cycle path NOT blocked by workman working in adjacent house!

Big fold down barrier at the access to Coldham's Common from Barnwell Road cycle path.

#50229, nearby

Much less severe chicanes than previously (e.g #12089) strike the right balance here.

The correct way to deal with road closures that cyclists can in fact get through.

Oldenburg cycleways. A barrier to keep cars out, much more visible than short bollards.

#50152, nearby

Oldenburg cycleways. These steps have an incorporated ramp – but large bollards have been added to stop pedstrians stepping onto the ramp.

#49279, nearby

Cycle bypass through this chicane to slow traffic.

#48107, nearby

Very pleasing to see the new bollard painted white after I pointed this out to our hard working cycling officer- even though he thought it was visible enough beforehand.

#44475, nearby

Entrance to Bushey Park designed to be a barrier to deer but able to accommodate five bikes.

Grand Canal Dock railway station bike wheeling ramp Location: Ringsend, Dublin, Ireland

#35147, nearby

A useful cut-through and generous chicane.

#34832, nearby

A bike ride from Chippenham to Calne. The sign warns that: "The cycleway will be CLOSED to all traffic between Blackdog and Stanley every THURSDAY from 9am to 3:30pm from November to February inclusive."

#34813, nearby

A nicely generous chicane - but probably like this to help mobility scooters as this path is no cycling.

#34393, nearby

These yellow posts are a distinctive feature of the Milton Keynes redway system - crossing a residential road here.

#33995, nearby

Sustrans gate on the NCN67. This one has been opened so that it can easily be bypassed.

#33982, nearby

Another cycle access gate, the mobility scooter got through this gap too - after she folded in her wing mirror.

#33976, nearby

These bicycle access narrowings vary a bit some quite tight, others loose. There's a horse step over on the left.

#33961, nearby

Another restriction - necessary here to stop motor vehicles getting onto the bridge behind the camera. This is on the TPT see: http://www.transpenninetrail.org.uk/

#33957, nearby

These narrowings are necessary, but to be honest a bit wearing, along this cycle route.

#33953, nearby

Necessary restriction on NCN routes to permit cycles, but prohibit motorised vehicles.

#33906, nearby

Harrison, Sidney and Mason push their bikes up these 'Dutch Ramps'.

#33920, nearby

I think that's a channel on the left edge of these steps, to help wheel bikes, then again it might just be a drain.

#32235, nearby

Sometimes there can be terrible obstructions for cyclists on Dutch streets. This is one of the main streets through Assen.

#32074, nearby

James with some highly reflective bollards outside the junction of Highsett with Hills Road.

#30664, nearby

This gate is now pinned ajar to let cyclists through, but why is there a big sign on the left asking them to dismount?

The Boris Bikes just fit through these filters - but the gates were wide open anyway. The Greenway - a disused railway line - see #29722 for opening times.

#29233, nearby

Compared to the horrid situation previously (see #12089) the new arrangements strike a better balance to force slowing down for the junction.

#30249, nearby

Proof that deliveries and works to this hotel do not need to be done by blocking the Regent Street cycle lane near Pizza Hut.

#28300, nearby

These bollards have been moved further apart so that they can allow wider non-motorised traffic, such as tricycles and trailers.

#27417, nearby

Much improved bollard arrangement at the start of the path to the Riverside Bridge. The previous pair of bollards forced people entering and leaving the path into each others' way, creating conflict and confusion (see #13896 ). This singl ... [more]
