The ironwork here has become springy. It is possible to stand on one corner of it and the ground bounces when you push on it with your feet. But when bus goes over it then it emits a very loud clack, see video at #175270. There's already ... [more]
The cycle parking outside the Kelvin Hall has now been installed (see #173729). It is quite close to the wall.

Nice new raised parallel crossing in Bowthorpe where Boatman Way cycle path crosses Clover Hill Road. However, the warning signs from one direction include the Zebra crossing and Cycle route ahead signs whereas the other direction only h ... [more]
A bus stop bypass in construction on Liverpool Street. A good deal of the carriageway has been reclaimed for active travel here.
A family of planters on Frederick St. This road is lovely and quiet now that it's been modally filtered.
[Image taken 23.10.21] Deangate, York. [NOTE: Streetview is not showing this set of toastracks.] The minimum recommended gap between uprights i 100cm. This is a shopping area and also has family groups who would share locks and therefore al ... [more]
[Image taken 23.10.21] Deangate, York. [NOTE: Streetview is not showing this set of toastracks.] The gap of just 72cm between the ends of the run of Sheffields is a lost opportunity to create space for wider and longer ('York'cycles) or car ... [more]
[Image taken 23.10.21] Deangate, York. [NOTE: Racks in York get moved around. Streetview is not showing this set of toastracks.] This damage shows why racks need to be protected by bollards or another solid object as is the case in High Pet ... [more]

With NCN7 due to shut on Saturday, the cycle route on the diversion route on Old Dumbarton Road is still under construction at its eastern end. There does not appear to be any attempt to tie in the cycleway to the road network at this busy ... [more]
The crossing to the east of Bunhouse Road has now been provided with asphalt ramps to aid pedestrians crossing. No sign of either dropped kerbs or raised crossings being installed. Incorrect corduroy (hazard) tactile paving is still in plac ... [more]
Slow progress on the Old Dumbarton Road cycle track. The corduroy tacile paving is incorrect. UPDATE: The raised crossing has been installed, but the tactile paving remains incorrect. See #175266.
Still finishing work to be done on Old Dumbarton Road, and not looking likely to be finished in time for the COP26 diversion route coming this way. UPDATE: The raised crossing has now been installed. See #175266.
New cycle parking stands are to be installed outside the Kelvin Hall at long last. UPDATE: Now installed, see #175268.
[Image taken 4.7.21] High Petergate, junction with Duncombe Place, York. Sheffields (this design of cycle rack) added earlier this year are now protected with bollards either end. This is good practice. Nearby are unprotected racks - and in ... [more]

[Image taken 23.10.21] Asda, Monks Cross, Huntington/York. This was my approach route. But how to reach the cycle parking? Or even find out where is it? (And as for finding your way on a cycle out of any of the car parks here and back to th ... [more]

175289 Pavement is narrow and very busy as it leads to the main entrance of a secondary school. The road is very busy in the mornings in particular as it is used as a rat run by commuters.- 175257 Cars are parked on either side of the road though nearly all the houses have parking. Controlled parking zone would help with this
- 175256 Very narrow pavement and cars go very fast as they cut through to the a20. There is a nursery and riding school as well as a junior school further up and it would help with walking to school if the pavement was wider
- 175229 This is a residential area with lots of flats. I've recently moved here and there is no secure cycle storage for people in flats with no outdoor space. It would be great if cycle racks, or even better if bikehangars could be installed in this area.
Bikehangars protect your bike from being exposed to all weather conditions keeping it in better shape which is more sustainable. They are used all over London and are a fantastic, well used resource that encourages more people to cycle. They can fit 6 bikes in a single car parking space - each cycle space is rented out so you have an allocated space and know that you'll have secure parking for your bicycle.
I hope something can be implemented here as it is a worry that there is nowhere secure to store my bicycle. I live at no. 8 Emperor Court, but am sure other streets in this area would also benefit from some form of secure bike parking.
- 175190 Constant speeding on Dorchester Road rat-run
- 175189 Dorchester Road is used as a rat-run to get to Hinckley Road and avoid traffic lights. Constant levels of speeding up and down hill, and cutting corner, making it dangerous for pedestrians and residents.
- 175188 Ride-on Santander Cycle scheme is a great thing for the city, yet there are not enough locations outside of city centre to make it accessible for those outside of student populace. Focus on residential areas to allow commuting would be highly beneficial. For example Western Park.

- 175171 Dingy and unsafe route through this park. Would not use this path on my own or in the dark. Needs lighting and more security. Streetscape architects need to take safety of vulnerable pedestrians and cyclists into account when designing routes and new estates. Often I have to walk 10-15 minutes longer to stay on main roads in order avoid a dangerous and unsafe areas like this.
