[Image taken 17.5.23] Tadcaster Road (looking north east), York. I’m marking the sign - Cyclists use road - as good practice (though I shouldn’t need to) because it’s still all too common that people on cycles are told to dismount (see: … [more]
[Image taken 17.5.23] Tadcaster Road (looking south west), York. The sign - Narrow lanes do not overtake cyclists - is good practice. There was another for the north east-bound carriageway too. Second example of good practice these works … [more]
Temporary traffic lights on Barton Road, Newnham, where space has been taken from the road to provide more space for cyclists and pedestrians, as well as a new crossing (presumably part of the Greenways project).
[Image taken 29.11.21] Burton Stone Lane, York. [Note: The works signs were removed 29.11.21] Details of the company doing the works, who it is on behalf of and a contact number, though not the duration of works. Context: #176416. Other … [more]
[UPDATE: The floodgates have been replaced. The route re-opened 19.11.21] [Image taken 9.8.21] Tanner's Moat/Wellington Row, York. Context see: #173062 and links. Clear signage for cyclists. A clear view of the ramp. The visibility means … [more]
[Image taken 9.8.21] Tanner's Moat/Wellington Row, York. Context see: #173062 and links. This is a busy area with works traffic (HGVs) and wheelchair users. I think the signage is clear and means people on cycles, foot and wheelchairs can … [more]
[Image taken 9.8.21] Tanner's Moat/Wellington Row, York. Context see: #173062 and links. The pedestrian signage is visibly at a pair of dropped kerbs. This makes the route practical for many users (tourists with wheeled luggage, wheelchair … [more]
[Image taken 9.8.21] Tanner's Moat/Wellington Row, York. Context see: #173062 and links. The pedestrians are following the signage – and complying with it. The signage is clear and logical, encouraging conformity. Other images (different … [more]
[Image taken 9.8.21] Tanner's Moat, Wellington Row, York. Context see: #173062 and links. The contractor took heed of best practice for these temporary (sub) works: 1. The Cyclists at roadworks appendix of the London Cycling Design … [more]
Excellent provision for cyclists and pedestrians at these roadworks, while drivers have to take turns to pass.
Abbey Chesterton bridge all three parts joined together. https://twitter.com/simon_nuttall/status/1257701367046692874?s=20

Sale Moor . Great to see no waiting signs being placed in the very wide road during Covid19 emergency . Was this @electricityNW or @traffordcouncil see also #15339 https://twitter.com/Cyclinstructor/status/1253687403316994048

A temporary cyclable route through the works during the widening of the A14 bridge. It is really good to have this, but it has required quite a bit of lobbying.

Excellent signage at the Scottish Water work on the Kelvin Walkway Garriochmill Road access, where a short path has been laid to divert around the worksite.
Excellent signage at the Scottish Water work on the Garriochmill Road access to the Kelvin Walkway. A short path has been laid around the back of the work compound to maintain pedestrian and cycle access.
Good to see cyclists being considered here - though I don't think it was really necessary to dismount.
Amazing! One tiny section of these roadworks have a sign and barriers in place. In Georgian and in English!
Path in Wyndford being widened, rerouted and resurfaced, providing more direct route between Kelvin Walkway and Southmuir Place.
A section of the A77 cycleway that is being resurfaced, and has been left open for use in the meantime. Off to the left one of the crossing points can just be seen, where the dual carriageway can be crossed to access properties on the … [more]
In its own way, rather beautiful. A temporary four way crossing control point (because of road works happening nearby) with provision for those on bikes.
Shared-use pavement work going on. Diversion onto road now includes ramps for riders (it didn't yesterday!). And this means taking a road lane out to temporary traffic lights. Now, to get those awkward concrete blocks out of the diversion … [more]
Improved crossing for cyclists. A protected waiting area in the middle of the road lets cyclists cross the road faster and safer, especially during rush hours.
Tenison Road closure to through-traffic during works - perhaps this should be made permanent, given that people are coping for 3 months?
The ground has been cut! Cambridgeshire Highways start work on installing cycle parking in Thoday Street. https://twitter.com/simon_nuttall/status/573067490986729472
The iron work is still a little raised but Short Street is finally being resurfaced, with the setts removed too. Let's hope it lasts.
This is impressive making space for cyclists during roadworks. Istedgade, #Copenhagen http://t.co/USOsCd5Y2F
A photo showing how a cycle lane closure should be handled. Not with a 'Cyclists Dismount' sign but a simple white arrow on a blue background.
The right way to deal with closure of a cycle lane for roadworks - rather than the usual "Cyclists Dismount". Note that the smaller sign behind instructs drivers not to overtake cyclists because of narrow lanes. (Although not entirely … [more]
Major roadworks, Road Closed Except [for] Cycles - the designated cycle lane is a bit narrow, but there's no reason not to go to the right of the signs. (Also Boris Bikes to the left, of course)
Major roadworks, Road Closed Except [for] Cycles - but the arrangements for cycles could be a bit more obvious.
A cycle lane created during these works on Hills Road which are necessary to re-site some services which lie under the road.
It's great that there's a northbound cycle lane on Hills Road while northbound vehicles have to go a long way around!
More of these signs at road works would be appreciated. This location currently has two sets of road works on either side of the road, so it is much narrower than it should be.
Narrow Lanes Do Not Overtake Cyclists - leaving aside the dodgy grammar, this is excellent advice - possibly influenced by practice in Cambridge.
