111527	Senate Passage Location: Cambridge, Cambridge District (England, UK) Cambridge	Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways
111493	Fixie Location: Cambridge, Cambridge District (England, UK) outside Corpus Christi College	Road environment: Infrastructure road
111408	Blazing vine Location: , Cambridge District (England, UK) England can't compete with New England's autumn colours but all around Cambridge the vines are catching fire. Most of them are on venerable college buildings, but this beauty is on the wall of an early 20th century workshop building, now a dance studio. #FlikrFriday #WarmColours	Road environment: Infrastructure road
111135	Battered railings encroaching further into a narrow shared path. Why exactly are they needed? The next crossing does not have railings.	Obstruction: Problem obstructions
111134	Burst water main, not being fixed. Grantchester High Street	Obstruction: Problem obstructions
111133	This was already a very tight and awkward gap to negotiate. Knuckle crusher rails were installed last year to punish anybody who didn't get their alignment quite right. This bollard has now been added to make it even more difficult and make a tight gap even tighter.	Obstruction: Problem obstructions
111132	This was already a very tight and awkward gap to negotiate. Knuckle crusher rails were installed last year to punish anybody who didn't get their alignment quite right. This bollard has now been added to make it even more difficult and make a tight gap even tighter.	Obstruction: Problem obstructions
111104	The potholed and flooded route to Grantchester. It doesn't get better.	Track: Problem track
109539	As if this gate wasn't awkward enough to negotiate before, somebody has bolted a post onto the narrow cattle grid. Why is there so much resistance to making this busy, popular route to Granchester cycle friendly?	Obstruction: Problem obstructions
109339	Sometimes you just have to give way to bigger traffic Stourbridge Common	Obstruction: Event obstructions
109202	Riverside Cambridge Museum of Technology	Destination: Infrastructure destinations
109201	King's Parade	Road environment: Infrastructure road
109200	Which would you choose? Sheffield stand or two tier racks It is a unanimous vote for Sheffield stands. Much more popular. Cycle parking in the basement of 50/60 Station Road.	Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking
108799	Riding the flood bank Norton Marsh, Brancaster	Track: Infrastructure track
108798	Elephant and Castle roundabout with segregated cycle lanes on the circulating carriageway and approach arms London	Road environment: Infrastructure road

106692	On the towpath Location: , Fen Ditton (England, United Kingdom)	Track: Infrastructure track
104426	Concrete surfaced track through Coton Nature Reserve. It cuts off a section of fast and narrow road into Coton.	Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways
104200	Top of Chapel Hill Location: , South Cambridgeshire District (England, United Kingdom)	Road environment: Infrastructure road
103824	The Grantchester Meadows path just doesn't get any better. This is the condition after the County Council have allegedly "fixed" it. All it needs is a tarmac path between the end of the surfaced road to the start of the surfaced path. I am at a loss to see why that is so difficult to achieve. #103819	Pothole: Problem potholes

103476	Riding the path from Grantchester to Haslingfield. Only a public footpath on this side of the M11, the motorway bridge is stepped and not suitable for cycling. There is a crying need for a decent route between these villages. Location: , Grantchester (England, United Kingdom) Grantchester, Cambridge	Other: Infrastructure general
103475	The ramped, stepped bridge between Grantchester and Haslingfield. The lack of legitimate cycle routes connecting these two villages is a disgrace. Location: England, United Kingdom Grantchester, Cambridge	Other: Problem general
101743	Cycling to the beach along the coastal path Location: , Burnham Overy Staithe (England, United Kingdom) Burnham Overy Staithe in Norfolk	Track: Infrastructure track
101625	Dead trees, ivy strewn, collapsing into the Love Lane path. Particularly hazardous at night.	Obstruction: Problem obstructions
101624	Hedgerow saplings collapsing across the path at waist height, forming a soggy barrier in wet weather. This path, like so many, needs better maintenance, particularly of summer growth.	Obstruction: Problem obstructions
101616	Fall hazard. Steel borehole lining and cap left projecting over an inch above the path surface next to the busy A606 at the M11 intersection	Pothole: Problem potholes
101615	Fall hazard. Steel borehole lining and cap left projecting over an inch above the path surface next to the busy A606 at the M11 intersection	Pothole: Problem potholes
101289	Grantchester Meadows path. Thistles and nettles growing out of the fence by 1m. These will reach half way across the new narrow shared path, visible in the background. Narrow paths, encroachment by vegetation, these are not new problems. Why are we still building shared paths like this? [Update - this work was started without any consultation or public announcement, and especially without any reference to the Greenways project. Madness. It was stopped after local protests.]	Cycleway: Problem cycleways
101288	Grantchester Meadows path. New 1.5m wide path under construction, tight to the fence. This will be just as unsatisfactory as the existing narrow path alongside Skater's Fen. Why such a narrow path when there is so much space available? And whatwill be done to prevent people from parking on it? [Update - this work was started without any consultation or public announcement, and especially without any reference to the Greenways project. Madness. It was stopped after local protests.]	Cycleway: Problem cycleways
100035	Cambridge Rules 1848 Sculpture. Parker's Piece The rules of football were first written down in Cambridge in 1848. This new sculpture was unveiled in May 2018 to commemorate the event. It is inscribed with the rules in many different languages	Destination: Misc destinations
100032	Parker's Piece and its lamp posts. Nice path although too narrow.	Cycleway: Good practice cycleways

98902	Dumfries Old Bridge Stepped access so not suitable for cycling but does allow people to avoid the busy road crossing.	Road environment: Infrastructure road
98901	The Old Military Road Location: , Drumsleet (Scotland, United Kingdom) NCN 7	Road environment: Infrastructure road
98610	Christ's Pieces Location: , Cambridge (England, United Kingdom) Cycling signed as not permitted on Christ's Pieces but restrictions are widely disregarded away from the main path, without causing any apparent problems.	Track: Infrastructure track
98153	Contraflow cycling Norwich Street, Cambridge Fantastic! Such a small, simple, but incredibly important breakthrough. No entry, except cycles... in the UK! Thank you to whoever is responsible.	Road environment: Infrastructure road
98128	Senate House Location: , Cambridge (England, United Kingdom) Senate House	Road environment: Good practice road

95805	Jesus Lane	Road environment: Infrastructure road
95792	The County RoW officer says that local residents object to the surface of the Grantchester Meadows path here being repaired "because it would encourage parking". Well the state of it clearly doesn't deter parking, people park on the bits with fewest potholes and force anybody on foot or bike to splash through the puddles.	Cycleway: Problem cycleways
95733	Exercising the dog On the bridleway between Barton and Grantchester	Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways
95444	High Viz Trinity Street	Road environment: Infrastructure road
95321	For as long as I can remember the end of Red Cross Lane has been made awkward to negotiate by anybody trying to get through to Addenbrookes from the East by bike - gated, no dropped kerbs, rough surface, barriers to stop you accessing the road from the path. cambridge.cyclestreets.net/location/33236/ Last week I came down Red Cross Lane and found this. Wow, brilliant, just what was needed! Thank you to whoever finally made this happen.	Cycleway: Good practice cycleways
95297	Newnham crater field The start of the Grantchester Meadows path, destroyed by use as a casual car park	Cycleway: Problem cycleways
89674	Not much respect for speed limits in evidence on "New Road" in Barton. The school is just around that bend, as is the post office, pub and village centre.	Enforcement: Problem enforcement
89311	Garret Hostel Lane	Cycleway: Good practice cycleways
89310	Garret Hostel Bridge A rare shared use path with enough width to cycle comfortably. If the Cambridge News is to be believed the County want to stop allowing people to cycle on it over fears that a tourist will get bumped into the river	Cycleway: Good practice cycleways
88663	Riverside bridge in the sunshine	Cycleway: Good practice cycleways
88605	Mums and toddlers at the Red Lion Cargo bikes a plenty	Bicycle: Misc bicycles

85871	Cycle parking outside Guildhall	Cycle parking: Good practice cycleparking
85758	There is a nasty, blind dog-leg on the Tesco Fulbourn path. I was hit, head on, by another rider as I came round this bend earlier this summer. The path continues straight on, to the left (see lady just emerging on a bike), but visibility is blocked by the hedge in front. There is also a path emerging from the back of Tesco car park, where the lady on the right is about to disappear. Visibility approaching this path is poor from the west, due to vegetation, and is non-existent from the east. Both of these issues can be easily addressed. 1. Cut back the hedge in front to give clear visibility. 2. Re-align the path to give a smooth dog-leg instead of the very abrupt realignment currently present. 3. Re-locate the path into Tesco so that it is away from the corner (to the west 50-100m), and cut back the hedge to improve visibility. There is	Cycleway: Problem cycleways
85757	Going fishing! Much improved bollard arrangement where Carter Bridge ramp joins Devonshire Road. Personally I would have liked to see a centerline marked for 5m up the ramp to help warn of the bollard, but this arrangement is as clear as anyone could expect. Mind you, people still ride the "wrong" side of the post,, like this guy going home from a fishing trip.	Cycleway: Good practice cycleways
85748	Gate leading to Grantchester Meadows and the Newnham path	Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways
85747	Coe Fen bridge Location: Newnham, Cambridge (England, United Kingdom) Coe Fen bridge	Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways
85746	On Coe Fen path Location: Newnham, Cambridge (England, United Kingdom) On Coe Fen	Cycleway: Good practice cycleways
85745	Traffic and tranquility Location: Cambridge (England, United Kingdom) The path across Coe Fen, with nose to tail traffic on Trumpington Street beyond	Cycleway: Good practice cycleways
85744	At the duck pond Location: Cherry Hinton, Cambridge (England, United Kingdom) Cherry Hinton Hall	Other: Infrastructure general
85737	October mist at Coe Fen Technically a public footpath, as are almost all of Cambridge's traffic free cycle routes. The bridge was closed for several months for re-painting. It is a shame that it was not widened or a parallel cycle bridge installed at the time. The bridge is very narrow, far too narrow to pass, and it is very busy at peak hours with people both walking and cycling.	Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways
85630	Cargo trike The only way to travel for any self respecting toddler in Cambridge. Newnham corner is a bit of an awkward mess to negotiate unless you are heading up Barton Road. A widened pavement and a flat topped hump help.	Bicycle: Infrastructure bicycles
85629	Midsummer Common Technically a public footpath, and rather too narrow for shared use. This is never the less a useful and attractive route.	Cycleway: Good practice cycleways
85606	Carter bridge by night	Other: Infrastructure general
85581	Path between the Queen Anne Car Park and Parkside Pool Technically a public footpath, this path provides access to the cycle parking for the pool, and also links Gonville Place with Mortimer Rd and Mill Road. Visibility at corners is poor.	Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking
85580	Grantchester path Technically a public footpath, very narrow (see how riders need to leave the path to pass), and with a poor surface. This is never-the-less a fabulous route into the city from the south.	Cycleway: Good practice cycleways
85579	Parker's Piece Path across the Piece - technically a public footpath, but heavily used for cycle access away from the busy roads surrounding the Piece.	Cycleway: Good practice cycleways
85578	Child trailer on Gonville Place Why would you want to reduce traffic on a road like this? Gonville Place used to have cycle lanes but they were removed in order to create an additional traffic lane to allow more vehicles to queue at the Hills Rd and Mill Road junctions. The result is a very hostile environment for cycling. The City Deal proposes possible traffic controls on East Road, Mill Road and Hills Road. That would transform this busy street, back to a quiet avenue.	Road environment: Problem road
85577	Carter Bridge Both the footway and cycleway are below recommended width, and this causes congestion in rush hour, but this is a very useful and popular crossing of the railway.	Cycleway: Good practice cycleways
85461	Bakfiets Outside the Parkside Pool	Bicycle: Misc bicycles
85460	Cycle counter Parker's Piece	General sign/notice: Good practice signs
85459	Palmers Walk - home to a furious campaign by local residents opposed to the path being improved for shared use.	Track: Infrastructure track
