Permeability could be improved here.
Obstruction to prevent speeding cyclists
Angled chicane, Felixstowe
Steps and pedestrian ramp.
Uncycle-friendly barriers, Amsterdam
Unusual in Amsterdam - a barrier to discourage cycling - there's a school a block ahead.
Barriers on this bridge in Haarlem - better to dismount, there's a very fierce angle at the top.
Closure of canalside route, Haarlem
There are places in Leiden where cycling is not allowed.
A cut-through here would create a useful alternative route to the Harwich International ferry terminal
It's just possible to wheel a bike through Harwich churchyard
Western end of bridleway on former mineral tramway to Gwithian
Footpaths only in Rickerby Park, Carlisle - even on the riverside route

Barriers on link west from Ryelands Park, Lancaster
Stepped access over the flood wall to the riverside cycleway (NCN routes 6 and 700) from Lancaster to Glasson Dock
Cyclists Dismount - but I think this access to Lancaster station has been closed for years.
Steps to a bridge over the Lancaster Canal
Stepped access here from the Leeds and Liverpool Canal towpath (NCN route 68) to Burnley Manchester Road station.
Final end of the cycleable riverside path towards the former Tadcaster railway viaduct - this could all be improved as a cycle route.
The Roman road from Tadcaster to York, an overgrown footpath at this point.
The Roman road from York to Tadcaster, which starts well but soon becomes an overgrown footpath.
Low barrier on the Trans Pennine Trail (NCN route 62).
Low barrier on the Trans Pennine Trail (NCN route 62).
Level crossing on the Trans Pennine Trail (NCN route 62) north from Doncaster.
Ramp to the Lavenham Railway Walk and barriers - there's no point cycling or horse-riding west (behind the camera) but it's ok east to Lavenham.
There's no point cycling or horse-riding west from here - but the route east to Lavenham is fine.
The dead-end road is narrowed to a single lane here, so there's no need for Cyclists Dismount signs and barriers - open it up and give cyclists priority!
Barriers to the virtually traffic-free road from Midsomer Norton to Westfield - a chap in a mobility vehicle had no trouble going around to the right.
This gate on NCN route 24 currently closes at 9pm.
They really don't want bikes on these steps off NCN route 244.
The Colliers Way (NCN route 24) is diverted here as a riding stables has taken over the former railway route.
Closed to motor vehicles for social distancing - but why the cones?
Stile protected crossing of the railway, on this public footpath so cycles are not accommodated.
Not the most cycle-friendly link on this housing development on the edge of Truro.
Gap to the left of the gate is slightly narrow but straight so useable
Poor access to this paved cut-through
If the path had gone to the left of the garages it would have been straight and much more useful.
Two 90-degree bends on this narrow footpath
Barriers on this narrow paved path in Hauxton
Steps from Hauxton Meadows to the paths by the Granta
Somebody wanted an up-to-date photo of the former Butt Lane crossing.
Bicycle limbo under the barrier
Chicane spacing isn't the worst which is good given the weird angles
Chicane with slightly jaunty angles
It only leads to a paved footpath, but still a dropped kerb would help wheelchairs and other users.
Gate to Hobson's Brook path
Bicycle gap next to locked gate, no chicane so more accessible than most
Two gates at the start of the bridleway to Whaddon - easy enough to get past.
Road closure - access for pedestrians only
Road closure - access for pedestrians only.
A dropped kerb would be helpful, even if this isn't a shared-use path
A dropped kerb would be helpful, even if this isn't a shared-use path
Barriers on Church Lane, Barton
I imagine there was once a staggered crossing here - maybe it'll be restored one day now that this isn't the A14.
This is marked as a cycle route on OpenCycleMap but there's no dropped kerb
Gated roads and pedestrian access only from the Trumpington Park & Ride
Earth piled up by farmer/landowner to stop motorised vehicles using the Icknield Way bridleway
Earth piled up by farmer/landowner to stop motorised vehicles using the Icknield Way bridleway
How long until this becomes a through route to Darwin Green?
Cycle access to the new NIAB offices - closed because of the Covid-19 lockdown? But the car access is open....
Permissive footpath only between the Barton Road and the M11
This is no longer the main entrance for visitors to the National Trust's Wimpole estate - but I presume this will remain a right of way for walkers and cyclists
Midsummer Common Community Orchard - stepped exit only at this end.
Steps at Edinburgh Rd on path between Cranhill Park and housing (weren't marked on OSM).
Steps down to path between Cranhill Park and houses. Could have a ramp at side to make it accessible. In distance is a new entrance path into park – smooth tarmac but only 1m or so wide.
Gate and sentry box on the bridleway across the Barton Road rifle range - do not enter until authorised when the red flag is flying.
Gate and sentry box at the exit from the Barton Road rifle range - wait here until authorised when the red flag is flying.
Junction of track and the Coton Path
I had no idea there was a route around the back of Waitrose (the sign asks people queueing 2 metres apart during the Covid-19 lockdown to keep the right of way clear) - the barriers are pointless as people are clearly taking bikes, trolleys
The Ridgway approaches Girton Corner.
A frame barrier across tarmac path serves no purpose whatsoever as it is easily bypassed by the rough path to the right.
Barriers at the pedestrian underpass beneath the Harrow Road
Sand on NCN route 5, Rhyl
Sand on NCN route 5, Rhyl
A-frame at the south end of the Mold railway path

Chicane on NCN668, Headingley, Leeds.
Bollards, Headingley, Leeds.
Slightly improved access to the riverside route, Bala (see #57447)
Barrier to cycling via this car park in Llangollen
OCM/OSM show this as a road - but bikes can get past.
I'll never understand how it came to be that bollards like this exist to protect people from drivers who mount pavements, but are installed in a way which takes space away from the people they are meant to protect. https://t.co/EBpR0BXePT
The King's Parade security gate is now in use, with a steady flow of cyclists through the single two-way gap (thanks to Lucinda Price).
Road closed with very restrictive barriers when motor traffic was diverted to a new development - pretty pointless, and I can't see anyone using it.
The King's Parade security gate is now in use, with cycle markings and other signage in place (but they need to get rid of that white arrow to the right) - thanks to Lucinda Price.
Security barrier alongside Bath Abbey
An attempt to tidy the area up but flytipping hasn't been eradicated.
Harlaxton signs amended to remove wording about retaining access
Steps to the riverside path, Carmelo, Uruguay
End of the road on the promenade of Nueva Palmira, Uruguay - it would be nice to have a dropped kerb here.
