Photo listing : obstructions (infrastructure)
The most recent photos are listed first. See also photomap view.
Overgrown bushes along the path towards Pollok House from the southern side of the Pollok Estate. This was in the process of being cut back a little distance further on.
Just after high tide, in dry weather, the Irt at this location is still a sizeable tidal river. The location of the "ford" on maps is in the centre of the photograph (the fence on the right hand bank gives an idea of scale).
An underpass with steps linking the two parts of Boquhanran Road beneath the railway. Unlikely to ever be made accessible, I guess. Duntocher Road is the nearest alternative crossing.
The footway of Hillington Road (at least part of which is shared-use) is loosing width to the bush, which will need cut back at some point. The toucan crossing connects Penilee and Hillington as part of a minimal signage quietway style c ... [more]
Steps with cycle channel - and No Cycle Parking sign on the railings to the right. Why not put some Sheffield [sic] stands there?
This private road is a footpath only, and it's not much more direct than the road through Portinscale.
Start of bridleway from Childerley Hall, which becomes a byway to Lolworth. I lifted my bike over the fence just to the right.
The path between Cartcraigs Road and Kennishead Road is a little overgrown, but may not see use for much longer since the nearby railway bridge (see #169924) is proposed for demolition.
A dumped motorbike partly blocking the path between the railway bridge at Cartcraigs Road and Kennishead Road, plus a shopping trolley in amongst the trees.
A barrier with an asphalted path through the gap leaving the road into Pollok Park. This route leads to some quieter options for routes through the park. The notice is about reporting crimes against wildlife.
Having established that the path through the woods wasn't particularly useful for cycling, I continued along the path until I came to this barrier. Although the path continues ahead, there is no break in the barrier down the middle of the s ... [more]
Unlike those in Kinbuck Street at #169712, the planters used to close off Stonyhurst Street do not have room to cycle between them, and there is only room to get around them on the footway. However, possibly not so much of a useful route.
Barriers on the path from the B1049 to a new housing development - although it's shown as a through route for cycling on OpenCycleMap.

The Dole turns into a footpath here - a dropped kerb would at least allow access for wheelchairs and buggies.
[Image taken 10.5.21] Marygate car park, York. No way through. No diversion. All images today: #168694 and links
Former Fire Path at Allander Street where it meets Ashfield Street. No provision for cycling through, although not much in the way of hindrance either, and the area awaits redevelopment. Through motor traffic here would be undesirable due t ... [more]
You may have an autistic child but you're still blocking the start of the Ayot Greenway east from Wheathampstead (NCN route 57)
The route from Erradale Street to the Halloween Pend now has a large flight of steps to get down. Avoid the route if cycling.
The route between Erradale Street and the Halloween Pend is steep, rough, now has a large flight of steps, and is unsuitable for any kind of cycling, so this obstruction is of no particular concern. Just avoid the route entirely.
NCN route 2 in Dawlish - you can ride up the road, or take this route with steps and a wheeling gulley.

Just as well Ferry Path is no longer needed for access to the ferry - the current bridge is just to the left of the camera.
If only my bars were 3 inches higher or lower, or 6 inches narrower, I could get through. As it is this cycleway isn't a way for cycles to go.
The new A1307 route and the bridleway to Madingley, which has been severed but still appears on maps as a dead-end.
Monks Cross retail park two Saturdays before Christmas. The cycle route around the perimeter is also used by pedestrians. The crash barriers were in situ on previous visits with no obvious purpose. See also See also #156553, #156554, #15655 ... [more]
There's a gap of just a few metres between this private cul-de-sac and the cycleway to Darwin Green - could this provide access for cargo bikes until proper access is built nearer Kings Hedges Road?
