| 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 | |

| 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 | |

| 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 | |

| 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 | |

| 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 | |

| 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 | |

| 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 | |

| 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 | |

| 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 | |

| 85459 |  | Palmers Walk - home to a furious campaign by local residents opposed to the path being improved for shared use. | Track: Infrastructure track | |
| 84358 |  | Narrow and blind - the path under the railway bridge on Ditton Meadows. This is acceptable as a "temporary" fix, but a permanent solution is needed to give acceptable width and sight lines. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 84357 |  | Gratuitous pinch stile obstructing the path. Action - make the cattle grid full width with a bypass gate for dog walkers etc and remove the pram arms. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 84356 |  | Horningsea village is generally fine for cycling but can be a rat run. | Road environment: Infrastructure road | |
| 84355 |  | The footbridge at Baits Bite Lock is not cycle friendly. This is an important crossing point and should be easy to improve. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 84354 |  | Green End is a dead end. It SHOULD be a meeting of ways. 1. The Byway meets Horningsea Road at the point where the cycle track becomes far too narrow. 2. The footpath to Baits Bite Lock could connect to the towpath on the other side and so to Milton and Waterbeach with a suitable path and bridge. All need developing. | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs | |
| 84353 |  | Fen Ditton High Street - an escape from the busy rat run that is Ditton Lane / Horningsea Road. | Road environment: Infrastructure road | |
| 84352 |  | Plenty of room here to widen the shared use path into Fen Ditton | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 84351 |  | The roadside shared use cycletrack narrows from "uncomfortable" to "you cannot be serious" as it enters Fen Ditton. For most of the way to the important High Street crossroads it could clearly be widened as there is little development on the West side of the road. Close to the High Street it becomes dangerously narrow and tight against the kerb. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 84350 |  | Not as bad as it looks, but never the less, a clutter of signal poles at the A14 slip roads | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways | |

| 84347 |  | Clayhithe Rd - quite a busy rat run | Road environment: Infrastructure road | |
| 84346 |  | Narrow path next to Clayhithe Rd. Note the lady cycling on the road, not the path. It is however a useful way to get on and off the Cam towpath. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways | |
