| 170060 |  | Very poor quality cycle parking at Asda in Trafford Park | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking | |
| 170033 |  | An utterly pointless series of barriers rendered useless by the desire line to the left. Stop installing this rubbish. If antisocial motorcycle use is an issue, that is for the police to deal with. And if the police don't have the resources, it's a political issue. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 170032 |  | Other: Infrastructure general | ||
| 169902 |  | Staircase down from School Lane to the TPT. There is an opportunity here to use the unused woodland to the west/left, to create a flat access track directly to School Lane. This would enable much easier access for all. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 169798 |  | Of course the road has no mud, but the narrow bypass for pedestrians and horses (the disabled are excluded) is full of mud. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 169765 |  | Desire line on the grass verge showing demand for a short section of pavement up to the TPT access point. | Road environment: Problem road | |
| 169725 |  | Bus stop bypass. A nice feature. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 169724 |  | Ludicrous, pointless stupid barrier on a staircase. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 169723 |  | These barriers are to slow cyclists down near the bar. They're far too tight and a better solution might be to use sinusoidal speed humps. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 169671 |  | Useful modal filter in this Salford estate. Unfortunately many of the nearby paths have no dropped kerbs to access them. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 169053 |  | Some nice ice-cream bikes. | Other: Event general | |
| 169052 |  | Cycleway in Rome. Quite good although I haven't used it. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 169051 |  | Cycleway in Rome. Quite popular while I was there. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 169050 |  | Ghost bikes are everywhere in Rome :( There is a protected cycleway mere yards from this location, but it doesn't extend to this point. | Road environment: Problem road | |
| 167746 |  | A lovely view but the towpath along this canal is dire for cycling. | Track: Problem track | |
| 167745 |  | Superbly surfaced cycleway alongside the River Lune | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 167744 |  | Superbly surfaced cycleway alongside the River Lune | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 167743 |  | Superbly surfaced cycleway alongside the River Lune | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 167742 |  | Superbly surfaced cycleway alongside the River Lune | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 167314 |  | This apparently hand-made kerb will seriously hurt or kill somebody trying to cross it, especially while turning. There are dropped kerbs nearby but people unfamiliar with the area will expect to turn normally into the road. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 167312 |  | Continuous footway = good. Ridiculous kerb transition at the junction = dangerous. This will seriously hurt somebody turning across it. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 167310 |  | Two-lane crossing at a roundabout exit for the new link road. This is not good enough - it should be a single lane, and the speeds should be significantly lower. This is dangerous. | Road environment: Problem road | |
| 167309 |  | Cycleway on the new link road | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 167306 |  | The new link road from the Giantswood Lane bridge | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 166574 |  | Very poor finish on the cycle gutter (which cannot be used anyway) | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 166573 |  | Bicycles do not fit in the sole lift provided on the north side of this bridge. This bridge likely infringes the Equality Act 2010. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 166572 |  | Staircase gutters too close to railings, so you cannot wheel a bicycle up or down. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 166571 |  | New cycleway connecting Thorley Lane to A555 and "cycling bridge" | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 166570 |  | The new bridge across the M56. Marked as bad practice because despite being a "cycling" bridge, you cannot cycle onto or off it. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 166569 |  | Temporary traffic calming on Broad Walk | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 165541 |  | A very nice surface on this private road. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 165540 |  | An old road repurposed as a cycleway. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 165539 |  | New protected cycleway on New Chester Road. I prefer wands, but this is a little bit better than paint. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 165538 |  | Upgraded surface on the A580. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 165380 |  | Planters, funded under the first EATF scheme, have replaced the old inaccessible barriers here. A new surface has also been laid where necessary. The result is that you can cycle straight through here without delay, as can disabled people. | Obstruction: Good practice obstructions | |
| 165170 |  | Sinusoidal speed humps are good, they don't cause much discomfort but if you go much too fast over them, they'll launch you out of the saddle. A good way IMO to slow people down. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 164722 |  | I have no idea what this is supposed to do. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 164234 |  | An old modal filter that allows walking and cycling, but not driving. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 164233 |  | New cycleway entrance in Haslingden. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 164232 |  | New cycle route in Haslingden. A short section of the old footpath to the right has also been upgraded. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 164231 |  | New cycle route in Haslingden. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 164230 |  | New cycle route in Haslingden. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 164229 |  | New cycle route in Haslingden. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 161839 |  | Flooding due to recent storm | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 161838 |  | Blocked off entrance to the tunnel beneath the main road. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 161837 |  | The blocked-off ramp down to the tunnel beneath the main road. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 161836 |  | Another stupid, pointless obstruction on a brand new path. Why is this low barrier necessary, when bollards will do the same job? | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 161835 |  | River Mersey was very high the day this photo was taken. | Cycleway: Event cycleways | |
| 161834 |  | An utterly pointless piece of fence that forces everyone through a narrow gap, in the middle of a global pandemic. How stupid is this? | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 161833 |  | New link to residential streets from the new path | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 160671 |  | Cycle tunnel beneath the roundabout. High quality but needs cleaning of leaves and litter. | Dutch-style cycleway: Good practice dutchcycleways | |
| 160670 |  | Overgrown cycle infra here, very good but needs cleaning. | Dutch-style cycleway: Good practice dutchcycleways | |
| 160669 |  | Very good cycle infra to cross the motorway. | Dutch-style cycleway: Good practice dutchcycleways | |
| 160668 |  | Slightly overgrown but otherwise quite good cycle infra to cross the motorway. | Dutch-style cycleway: Good practice dutchcycleways | |
| 159526 |  | The correct way to filter the entrance to a walking/cycling route - with bollards. Not stupid A-frames. | Dutch-style cycleway: Good practice dutchcycleways | |
| 159525 |  | Trial filter as part of a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood in Levenshulme. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 159524 |  | Trial filter as part of a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood in Levenshulme. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 159523 |  | Trial filter as part of a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood in Levenshulme. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 159522 |  | Trial filter as part of a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood in Levenshulme. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 159521 |  | Trial filter as part of a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood in Levenshulme. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 159520 |  | Trial filter as part of a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood in Levenshulme. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 159519 |  | Trial filter as part of a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood in Levenshulme. Motorists have parked in this manner to stop other motorists driving along the pavement to bypass the filters. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 159518 |  | Trial filter installation as part of a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood in Levenshulme. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 159517 |  | Trial filter as part of a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood in Levenshulme. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 159516 |  | Trial filter as part of a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood in Levenshulme. The two planters have been moved from their proper positions by vandals. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 159515 |  | Trial filter as part of a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood in Levenshulme. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 159514 |  | Trial filter as part of a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood in Levenshulme. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 159513 |  | Trial filter as part of a new Low Traffic Neighbourhood in Levenshulme. | Road environment: Good practice road | |
| 157867 |  | Incomplete separated crossing for walking and cycling. Pedestrians press a button, while it looks as though cyclists will be detected by loops in the surface. The cycleway continues to the right (north) and turns left (northwest) down Newlands Avenue. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 157866 |  | This is a shared footway. A new entrance to a private business park has been built across it. This is really, really bad infrastructure. The islands are too small for long bicycles with trailers, the angles are severe and motorists will not be looking for cyclists approaching along the footway. This should be a continuous footway with priority given to those on it. But unfortunately, Manchester City Council don't have a clue how to build good walking and cycling infrastructure. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 157630 |  | Bolton Council seem to have run out of stripy paint and lit poles for this.....whatever it is. | Road environment: Infrastructure road | |
| 157629 |  | The new CYCLOPS junction at Bolton Trinity Street. This has made navigating this junction much safer. Unfortunately there are no sensors to detect the presence of bicycles, and users have to press a button to cross/turn. This is impossible to do without passing the STOP line. The buttons are also difficult to reach for some people with disabilities. | Dutch-style cycleway: Problem dutchcycleways | |
| 157628 |  | The new cycle lanes along Chorley New Road, ending prematurely at Beaumont Road. This is a major junction and cyclists should be given protection here. Ed (simon) these lanes are being used for motor vehicle storage, see: twitter.com/allpartycycling/status/1350064655339839492 | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 157627 |  | New wider wand-protected cycle lanes installed along Chorley New Road. Unfortunately as of uploading this image, they end at Beaumont Road. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 154060 |  | Completely useless barrier that is a royal pain in the arse if you're pulling a trailer. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 152134 |  | The cycle crossings in this area are poorly maintained. This one doesn't drain properly, there's a big pile of mud which is a potential slip hazard for cyclists turning right. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 152121 |  | An extra beefy line has been installed here, although it will need wand protection to prevent intrusion by drivers. | Road environment: Event road | |
| 152120 |  | Temporary no-entry for motor vehicles and extra wide cycle lane for cycling, due to COVID-19 This filter makes a big difference, especially as at the top (and west) Deansgate has been temporarily pedestrianised. | Temporary closure: Good practice closure | |
| 151600 |  | Nice and simple access from the canal to the new cycleway. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 151599 |  | No dropped kerb to access the road and no way to access the cycleway on the other side. What on earth is going on here? | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 151598 |  | This is ridiculous - how are you expected to cycle onto the road when there are no dropped kerbs and when there's a sodding great fence in the way? | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 151597 |  | The surface on this cycleway is absolutely superb. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 151596 |  | Cycleways aren't just for cyclists... | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 151595 |  | The crossing is welcome but the approach is difficult to navigate. Cyclists do not ride in right-angles, they ride in curves, and so the approach should be curved. And the buttons can be difficult for someone on a cargo bike to reach without nosing into the road. | Road environment: Problem road | |
| 151594 |  | These typical TFGM crossings are better than nothing but the controls are very difficult to see while cycling and the layout is difficult for a cyclist to navigate. Also, pedestrians and cyclists should not have to cross the road in stages. | Road environment: Problem road | |
| 151593 |  | It's very nice to see such good access not spoiled by a silly barrier. This is excellent. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 151592 |  | While this is a welcome addition on this new road, the shared footway is too narrow. Valuable space has been taken by the armco on the left, which should really be on the right, taking space from the carriageway. If the barrier was on the right, it would also offer some protection to pedestrians and cyclists. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 151591 |  | While this is a welcome addition on this new road, the shared footway is too narrow. Valuable space has been taken by the armco on the left, which should really be on the right, taking space from the carriageway. If the barrier was on the right, it would also offer some protection to pedestrians and cyclists. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 151590 |  | The shared footway at the side of this new road is nice and wide and has an excellent surface. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 151589 |  | The shared footway at the side of this new road is nice and wide and has an excellent surface. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways | |
| 151588 |  | The cycle lane merging like this is a nice idea, but it should be reinforced with wands in the chevron area. | Road environment: Problem road | |
| 151587 |  | This gate should be modified to allow active transport, or at least some dropped kerbs added. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 151477 |  | Another example of the high standards that Bury Council maintains on this otherwise good cycleway. Who wouldn't want to cycle through a huge quagmire of mud, eh? And to those who aren't familiar with the route - there's a paved cycleway under that lot. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 149971 |  | A bodge job by Highways England. Please beware of this dangerous surface, which has been reported twice. | Pothole: Problem potholes | |
| 149824 |  | Cycle paths enable more activities than just cycling. | General sign/notice: Good practice signs | |
| 146391 |  | A very badly neglected path. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 146390 |  | And another barrier.... | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 146389 |  | Oh look, another barrier. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions | |
| 146387 |  | This shared footway is ok, but is far too short to be worthwhile. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways | |
| 146386 |  | A combined walking and cycling zebra crossing. | Road environment: Good practice road |
