| 32351 |  | Surely this sign is the wrong way around? And why the obsession with making cyclists dismount to cross a lightly used busway anyway? | General sign/notice: Problem signs |

| 32256 |  | Note how the left-hand 6" of the blacktop is stepped down to a lower level . Given that there is no colour change at this step, it would be easy to fall off the edge in the dark. Need a white line to show the edge of the path. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 32250 |  | Need white markings to show that the cycleway narrows suddenly on the left. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |

| 32247 |  | Cyclists are supposed to use this inadequate path, blocked by builders, rather than the buses-only road. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 32246 |  | Cyclists are supposed to use this inadequate path rather than the buses-only road. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 32243 |  | No Entry Except Guided Buses on the busway - cyclists have to lose the shared-use path to the right (decorated with lots of signs banning cycle parking). | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs |

| 32239 |  | This notice has been put up along the corridor of the cycle park leading to the stairs and lifts where people leave their bikes if the racks are full. Clearly, more racks are needed. | General sign/notice: Problem signs |
| 32238 |  | See video at www.youtube.com/watch and site at www.thebusway.info/ Currently the longest guided busway in the world. This may not last, as the contractor (who's been taken to court by the council for failure to deliver) has got several projects to build the same kind of thing in other UK cities. It'll be interesting to see how this goes. The big test will be how it responds when the A14 gets jammed. Although unless people are already planning to use it, they'll still be stuck in that jam. The guided section from the rail station down to Addenbrookes hospital is not yet open, so it has to mix it with normal traffic for now. | Road environment: Good practice road |
| 32234 |  | Photo of the Cambridge News 8 August 2011 showing yesterday's bike ride alongside The Busway. www.cambridge-news.co.uk/Home/Video-Cambridgeshires-guided-bus-finally-opens-after-years-of-waiting-07082011.htm | Cycleway: Event cycleways |
| 32228 |  | See video at www.youtube.com/watch This is the non-contraflow section of Bateman Street. Notice that there is plenty of off-road space for these vehicles to go. So, just lazy. Breaking Highway Code Rule 240 (backed up in law) www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_069860 You MUST NOT stop or park on a tram or cycle lane | Enforcement: Event enforcement |
| 32227 |  | See video at www.youtube.com/watch Another example of the issues of traffic flow along Bateman Street. Coming to the end of Eligius Passage, I need to turn into Bateman Street. Notice the parked car directly opposite. This means that any exit from this road is dangerous and must be done very carefully. Cars drive into this cyclelane from the opposite direction at speed. Check out radwagon.blogspot.com/2011/06/bateman-street.html for examples. This means that the normal safety of the cyclelane simply doesn't exist, especially with this parked Royal Mail van. Then, the surface of the cyclelane is so degraded, it's difficult to hold a line that keeps the bike in it safely. When it's wet it's even worse. Finally, as the contraflow section approaches, I'm glad I'm not 30 yards ahead of my position as a car drives into my lane to avoid parked cars. This is yet more evidence of how badly this road infrastructure is set out and maintained. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 32226 |  | See video at www.youtube.com/watch As I approach the roundabout, I check all routes, behind and in front. The car approaching is not signalling right so therefore is implying that they are going straight on and not crossing my line. I proceed as I have nothing to Give Way to. Luckily, I'm aware of how poor driving can be. Despite not signalling the car comes round and crosses my line. I've knocked off enough speed to allow for this poor driving. Signaling is required. Signals warn and inform other road users, including pedestrians of your intended actions. Breaking "Highway code rule 103". www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_070289 | Enforcement: Event enforcement |
| 32225 |  | See video at www.youtube.com/watch Another example of the "I must get past" attitude from some drivers, including the professional ones. The driver makes the pass just before the (illegally) parked car and has to squeeze in with an oncoming bus. Of course, the traffic isn't going any faster than me, so the driver is going nowhere. A poor manouevre, gaining nothing whilst risking the safety of others. Again, breaking "Highway code rule 163". www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_070314 | Enforcement: Event enforcement |
| 32224 |  | See video at www.youtube.com/watch A few dozen yards after this is a parking bay for unloading. So, just lazy.

| 32169 |  | See video at www.youtube.com/watch I can imagine loads of car drivers gently discombobulating about this clip and seeing cyclists do this. However, I believe I've done nothing wrong here. First, I see the lights are changing and quickly assess my options, spot the empty cyclepath and decide to head that way. I drop speed as the manoeuvre is tricky. First, check there's nothing coming from the left. Then make a left turn into the side road and quickly join the cyclepath crossing of this road. Make sure anyone crossing the main road, on hte pedestrian lights is well away from me and head on down the cycle path. After a short while I notice pedestrians in the cyclepath ahead and decide to re-join the main road carriageway. I check the road behind and it is free of traffic, so I re-join. See, what's wrong with that? | Other: Good practice general |
| 32167 |  | See video at www.youtube.com/watch I've often criticised drivers for poor overtakes in this location, so here's an example of how to do it. Taking good notice of "Highway code rule 163". www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_070314 I hear them approaching and slowing. I speed up as much as I can, because I can and because they've shown me a curtesy. I havea better view point and wave them through once it is clear, they hold backa bit, but do go through quickly when they can see. That kind of thing dissolves all tension and promotes a great stress-free existence for both parties. You get Road Rage? It's because you don't do this. Well done, driver! | Road environment: Good practice road |
| 32166 |  | See video at www.youtube.com/watch Wow! Dumb cyclist! I'm aware that I havea car on my right rear and feel limited in space. Traffic clips this cycle lane regularly as it's poorly designed (see www.youtube.com/watch). Then there's this cyclist facing the wrong way on his phone blocking the cycle lane! And his mate is blocking the entire off road cyclepath. A pair of idiots. Unfortunately, I rather blot my copybook, I really should have completely stopped rather than try to squeeze through. | Enforcement: Event enforcement |
| 32164 |  | Looks like the drivers of these cars think they can get away with the double yellow line violation by parking right on the verge. After reporting this to County's Parking Services I'm told these double yellow lines are not on the public highway and so unfortunately they can do nothing about this. It is therefore a bit of a mystery why the landowner has put these double-yellow lines along here. For a counter to this, enjoy this link from the Mayor of Vilnius who drives a military vehicle over a car parked in a cycle lane: www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-14380367 | Car storage: Problem carstorage |
| 32163 |  | Some of the many cars parked on double yellow lines along here - these two blocking access to the pedestrian / push-chair / wheelchair / cycle route, and restricting the visibility of children emerging from the nearby playing field. After reporting this to County's Parking Services I'm told these double yellow lines are not on the public highway and so unfortunately they can do nothing about this. | Car storage: Problem carstorage |
| 32162 |  | My artistic response to the CB1 development scheme hasn't quite worked here, might try with riders dressed in black - or have white rays coming out of front and back lights! | Road environment: Event road |
