New build cycle track takes the basic concepts but fails to understand the point. People emerging from the bus shelter can't see cyclists going past. Slabbed area on the right should have been the footway.
New build cycle track takes the basic concepts but fails to understand the point. Planing on the left interrupts the footway (in light slabs) right by bus stop, causing conflict.
New build cycle track takes the basic concepts but fails to understand the point. The footway (light grey slab paved area) is interrupted by planting that forces cycles and pedestrians in to conflict.
New build cycle track takes the basic concepts but fails to understand the point. Nasty staged junction with railings to get to the next part of the cycle route.
