Red Lion junction Hatfield showing crossing to the cycle route south from NCN61 to the station, opened November 2015 see #74067.

Despite lobbying by local cyclists the island has been constructed to pedestrian only standards requiring cyclists to dismount and creating an unnecessarily difficult crossing for tricycles and tandems.

Subway under Great North Road Hatfield.

This could be used to divert NCN12 away from a busy roundabout, but rulled out because the subway is too low to be legally acceptable. Hertfordshire County Council should take the view this is still safer than the roundabout shown in #74069. View from east end #74077.

Note that the subway is only a footway, not shared use, hence the white line to define the cycle route.
