  • Obstructed Path

    Created by Dawes Jaguar // 0 threads

    The multiple barriers here achieve nothing. All that is needed is the fence adjacent to the carriageway, and even that is debatable (since the road ends here). However, they do make cycling at best difficult and at worst impossible. Cycling should be encouraged here as the path is next to a school. Cycling to school would improve the life-long health of the children, and reduce the numbers of "school run" cars parked in Teazel Avenue, engines idling.

  • Anti-Cycling Barriers

    Created by Dawes Jaguar // 0 threads

    These barriers make life awkward for pedestrians, as well as cyclists. It would be better if they were removed. Germany has opened up paths such as this to cyclists, and it hasn't resulted in blood on the streets. It has encouraged cycling, however.

  • Cut-through on Lugtrout Lane

    Created by Bracken VanRyssen // 0 threads

    Currently there are pedestrian fences, bollards and curbs separating the two sections of Lugtrout Lane, preventing easy access from one section to the next and avoiding cycling along the 40 mph plus Damson Parkway. This would be an ideal point for some dropped curbs and appropriately spaced bollards to increase permeability for cyclists. There is clearly latent demand for a decent cut-through as the area to the left of the railings has had the grass worn away by the imprint of bicycle tyres.
