[Image taken 16.4.23] Village Street, York. There is just the one pavement but on Sundays it's unofficial car parking. I didn't think someone in a wheelchair of around 1m would be able to pass several of these cars. Grass is not part of the … [more]
[Image taken 16.4.23] Village Street, York. The Lysander Arms (cycle parking: #173324) is a massive trip generator… of people using cars. On other Sundays, there has been parking on the ‘no footway’ side of the road too. Motonormativity … [more]

[Image taken 29.11.21] Field View, York. Pavement parking on the other side of the street. This side (close to the junction with Haughton Road) has been patched many times. It has a variety of surfaces and today part of it was icy. The … [more]

The junction where it is proposed to close NCN7 during the COP26 conference and divert users around the streets of Yorkhill, Finnieston and Anderston. The carriageway of the road is accessed via the dropped kerb before the bridge, and the … [more]
The first sign that the Benalder Street/Beith Street junction is going to be signalised, but no clues as to how the cycle track ending here will be tied into this. The dropped kerb and crossing studs have not deterred these selfish drivers … [more]

No provision for cycling through the closure of Victoria Park Drive South at Westland Drive. A dropped kerb and toucan crossings at the junction signals would probably suffice.
"Cycle Lane Suspended" - no further details. Roadworks are taking place in the contraflow cycle lane in Howard Street ahead. A diversion could have been set up via Dixon Street and Fox Street. See also #170199.

Pavement parking in Scotland Street, opposite a car park. The line segregation cycleway sign is wrong too, since the cycleway is to the left of the footway.
Pavement parking in Cogan Road, outside a huge free car park at the retail park. The Advance Stop Line is the only concession to cycling on this road.
Canniesburn Toll roundabout, where changes are proposed including signalisation. See https://arcg.is/1P81rb Also included in the plans is a sliproad outside of the shops with parking spaces, since the parking presently occurs exclusively … [more]

Secure cycle parking required at tower blocks in Charles Street. This location is very handy for cycling into the city centre, but better storage is required.

Unlike other armadillo-protected cycle lanes around the city, there are no double yellow lines on Wallacewell Road, and fly parking is still a problem, particularly at gaps in the armadillo provision.
Car parking in Laurieston all over the place, and some random cycle parking. I guess the streetlighting is nearing replacement.
The shared footway has been built along Spean Street without any thought for those that want to leave or join the route at intermediate junctions. Dropped kerbs are missing at various locations where such a turn may be required. And … [more]
