| 31318 |  | "Cyclists Dismount" sign in a contraflow cycle lane at roadworks. See #31317 for the view from the other side. The other side of the road contains fixed buildouts, meaning that it would be difficult to divert the lane around the obstruction. The obvious solution (were this a traffic lane) would be temporary traffic lights. In practice cyclists just ignore the dismount sign, bringing them and it into disrepute. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 31317 |  | "Cyclists Dismount" sign in a contraflow cycle lane at roadworks. Note that this photo is taken from the 'with-flow' side from which cyclists will be approaching on the road and not in the lane so there's nothing for them to dismount for! See #31318 for the view from the other side. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 31143 |  | Compare with #31074 - the 'offending' Cyclists Dismount sign has gone, but that may just because the location of the work has moved and it's easier to divert pedestrians down the other side. | Obstruction: Misc obstructions | |
| 31074 |  | Contractors using "cyclists dismount" even though the main carriageway is entirely passable. (C.f. #31143 for a subsequent view) | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 29880 |  | Roadworks on Pembroke Street encourage (or in some cases force) vehicles into the contraflow cycle lane. | Roadworks: Problem roadworks | |
| 29630 |  | Temporary traffic arrangements don't _have_ to ignore the needs of cyclists. This setup cleanly allows cyclists to bypass the restrictions that need to be applied to cyclists. The sign says "cyclists use bypass lane" (sorry about the quality of the photo). | Temporary closure: Good practice closure | |
| 26512 |  | Southbound access to the Addenbrokes access road roundabout. Implication that cyclists must leave the road at this point. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 26511 |  | Northbound exit from Addenbroken access road roundabout going towards Addenbrokes. Unclear if the 'Segregated shared use' applies to the foreground (in which case where's the segregation), or to the background (where it's an on-road cycle lane, not shared use). | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 26509 |  | Exit (officially optional, but looking rather compulsory) from the Addenbrokes access road before the roundabout to the east of the rail bridge (heading towards Addenbrokes). | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways | |
| 26508 |  | View turning right across the road to access the new crossing on the A1301 Sawston Bypass. Note the proximity of the turnoff from the bypass. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 26507 |  | Other: Misc general | ||
| 26506 |  | Drop-curb access from new crossing of the A1301 Sawston Bypass onto Mill Lane | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways | |
| 26505 |  | Cyclist's view turning right onto the the new A1301 Sawston Bypass crossing. Note that you are turning across the path of fast traffic leaving the bypass only approx. 30m from the junction. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 26456 |  | Sawston-Whittlesford cycleway - crossing of the southbound carriageway. Note the narrow cyclepath beyond. | Cycleway: Misc cycleways | |
| 26455 |  | Poor state of the _new_ Whittlesford-Sawston cycleway | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 26454 |  | New flush curb, Whittlesford-Sawston cycleway | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 26403 |  | Sawston-Babraham cycle route. Crossing of Sawston Road near its tee-junction with High Street, Babraham. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 26402 |  | Sawston-Babraham cycle path (under construction, surface tarmac not yet laid). | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 26401 |  | What looks like the intended route of the Sawston to Whittlesford cyclepath to the east of the new crossing on the A1301 Sawston Bypass. Note the excessively narrow path. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 26400 |  | New cycle crossing on the A1301 Sawston Bypass under construction. | Cycleway: Misc cycleways | |
| 26399 |  | What looks like the intended route of the Sawston to Whittlesford cyclepath to the west of the new crossing on the A1301 Sawston Bypass. Note the excessivly narrow path. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways | |
| 19413 |  | Sign replacing #19412 www.cambridgeshire.gov.uk/countryside | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs | |
| 19412 |  | Closeup of the sign in #19411. See #19413 for its eventual replacement. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways | |
| 19411 |  | Temporary sign and 'improved' footway. See #19412 for a closeup of the sign. | Other: Infrastructure general | |

| 16081 |  | Approach to Addenbrookes relief road roadworks, March 2009. 'Cycling Prohibited' sign turned over, 'Narrow Lanes Consider Cyclists' sign added. C.f. #15995 for the situation earlier in the week. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways | |
| 16080 |  | Addenbrookes access road roadworks, March 2009: Newly-painted stop lines at contractor access | Cycleway: Misc cycleways | |
| 15999 |  | Pavement blocked by contractors pulling cables. They seem to think nothing of obstructinng a cycle route, and that cyclists could not possibly use the road as an alternative to walking. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 15998 |  | Approach to Addenbrookes relief road roadworks, March 2009. 'Cyclists Dismount' (probably in relation to the on-pavement cycle path). 'cycling prohibited' and 'Footpath Closed' signs further on - no suggestion of where cyclists or pedestrians are supposed to go. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 15997 |  | Addenbrookes relief road roadworks, March 2009. Cycling OK again? | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 15996 |  | Addenbrookes relief road roadworks, March 2009. Cycle lane erased but sign still in place! | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |

| 13677 |  | Emmanuel St roadworks: minimal cycle lane, or misplaced sign? | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 13673 |  | Reinstated bus stop outside Maplins on Regent St. This was originally removed to make space for the bollard installation but was reinstated just before the bollard came into use. Note that a bus stopped here effectively blocks the road. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 13672 |  | Rising bollards, St Andrew's St, southbound. | Other: Infrastructure general | |

Most northbound traffic is expected to turn right here into Park Parade. | Other: Infrastructure general | |
| 13668 |  | Early warning sign for the St Andrew's Street bollard | Other: Infrastructure general | |
| 13667 |  | Space available in the delivery bay for the lorry shown in #13666 (and viable in the background here) | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 13666 |  | MF 52 OPP cheerfully blocks the new north-bound bus and cycle lane in St Andrew's Street on the day it opens (despite there being space in the loading bay 50m along the road - see #13667) | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 13665 |  | A bus stop too far? Buses waiting here force overtaking traffic to compete with oncoming buses taxis and bikes. | Other: Infrastructure general | |
| 13664 |  | Planned island, junction of Emmanuel St and St Andrew's St | Other: Infrastructure general | |
| 13663 |  | As #13643, but amended for the fact that there is only (has only ever been) one lane south. | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs | |
| 13662 |  | New Bus/Cycle lane, northerly approach to Hills Road bridge roadworks | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways | |

| 8795 |  | Other: Misc general | ||
| 8794 |  | View north from the Taxi Hailing Point on the east side of Hills Road. Note the pedestrian crossing zig-zags and/or mandatory cycle lane markings stretching of into the distance. This point has now (June 2006) been moved a few hundred meters north to the bus stop outside St Pauls Church - roughly oposit the north-bound bus just visible in this picture. | Cycleway: Misc cycleways | |
| 8793 |  | View south from the original position of the Taxi Hailing Point on the east side of Hills Road. Note the mandatory cycle lane stretching of into the distance. This point has now (June 2006) been moved a few hundred meters north to the bus stop outside St. Pauls Church. | Cycleway: Misc cycleways | |

| 8791 |  | One of the new 'Taxi Hailing Points' | General sign/notice: Misc signs | |
| 8790 |  | Variable restriction sign, but at about 18:00. I don't know when these messages actually change, or what else (if anything) the top section of the sign every displays. | General sign/notice: Misc signs | |
| 8789 |  | Closeup of the variable restriction sign, midday. | General sign/notice: Misc signs | |
| 8788 |  | The St Andrew's Street/Hobson Street junction, taken around midday. | Other: Misc general | |
| 8787 |  | The entrance to the pedestrian zone, St Andrew's Street at its junction with Emmanuel St. There is a similar sign on the other side of the road. Note "No waiting except in signed bays". The white square below the sign was, until recently, a non functioning indicator of the amount of free space on the taxi stand further up the road. | General sign/notice: Misc signs |
