177570 | ![]() | A lot of effort has gone into signing a diversion - but both cycleways north from Cambridge North are perfectly useable at the moment. | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs |
177561 | ![]() | I see Parker's Piece has been left in a traditional state! @Sam_in_Cam @ACarpenDigital t.co/uMnZn1mqE6 | Destination: Problem destinations |
177515 | ![]() | Owning a shop clearly means one can park a car on the footway outside. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
177513 | ![]() | Old locks accumulate. Three old rusty and broken locks have been reported at: www.cambridge.gov.uk/report-an-abandoned-or-missing-bike | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
177483 | ![]() | View for users of the footbridge when they reach the Chisholm Trail. They might sport the Heras fencing (while it remains in place) but it's not at all obvious from here that there's a paved alternative via the old Mildenhall rail alignment. | Other: Infrastructure general |
177482 | ![]() | This is what greets users of the footbridge from Stourbridge Common when they reach the Chisholm Trail. No signage (yet) to direct them on their eastbound route. | Other: Infrastructure general |
177456 | ![]() | More bike parking required at this very popular location as cyclist attach bikes to residents’ properties due to lack of space | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
177423 | ![]() | These triangular panels do not fit correctly and are each only held in place by two bolts, whereas there are holes for four. I asked a pair of men in hi-viz about this and one of them said his team had added the cable ties in the other holes. That seems very bizarre to me as these are heavy steel panels which can surely overcome the flimsy cable ties. The missing holes were visible over a year ago in November 2020, see #154627. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
177379 | ![]() | Hopefully this annoying abandoned bike will be gone soon now that it has been tagged. It has been on these racks for several years and despite several reportings in that time has remained for one reason or another. Update 14 Jan: Hurray it was gone a few days after mkaing my follow-up report. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
177377 | ![]() | A bike rack has been bent almost completely flat against the ground. It looks like it was reversed into by a large van or truck, the bicycle attached to the rack was squashed in between. There are no bollards to protect the bikes / racks from this not uncommon occurrence. Reported at: highwaysreporting.cambridgeshire.gov.uk Update same day as reported: Highways have scheduled work to fix the problem within 12 weeks (i.e. by 31 March 2022). Update 16 Jan: the rack was removed, see #177681. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
177376 | ![]() | See #150276 This has been reported: highwaysreporting.cambridgeshire.gov.uk. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
177348 | ![]() | My guess is that a vehicle has reversed crushing the bike against the rack and bending the rack completely over. The back wheel in particular looks like it has been pressed over the rack. The pedal crank is bent too, so quite a substantial force. This happens when street cycle parking is not protected by bollards. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
177153 | ![]() | Checking that the cycle counter has reset at midnight. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |

177138 | ![]() | Annual Barometer check at Parker’s Piece. It is completely full to overflowing, suggesting at least 1.5 million bikes. We’re going to need a bigger barometer! | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
177117 | ![]() | Perhaps the next cycle parking guide needs a sentence or two suggesting that when racks are installed, care should be taken to ensure that people making use of them do not need to wear waders to do so. | Cycle parking: Event cycleparking |
177110 | ![]() | The Cityglades access road is open to the Chisholm Trail spur. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
177109 | ![]() | Potential access to Chisholm Trail spur from Cityglades access road. Currently blocked by capped-off (disused?) oil pipes. | Other: Infrastructure general |

177028 | ![]() | The Chisholm Trail subway. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways |
177027 | ![]() | Hemingford Road was supposed to have been changed to two-way cycling several years ago, but this approach from Coleridge Ridge is guarded by fading no entry signs on a yellow background. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
176940 | ![]() | When will local authorities learn? The outcry when barriers were installed at Addenbrooke's Hospital had them removed within a week. Do they think barriers on the Chisholm Trail - a major active travel project - will go unnoticed? Be accepted? What a waste of time and money. t.co/qwuqmkiiZU | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |

176866 | ![]() | One of the cattle grids at Midsummer Common/Riverside is broken (two of the bars missing) and someone has marked the danger by flytipping a small fridge @camcitco @cambscc @camcycle t.co/BkWYo8D3ln | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |

176790 | ![]() | The repositioned point where the informal east-west path crosses the Trail to head towards the railway footbridge. The route towards the narrow bridge over the brook, leading to the railway bridge, can just be seen at right of shot. | Other: Infrastructure general |
176789 | ![]() | The junction at the foot of the south ramp to the Chisholm Trail river bridge | Other: Infrastructure general |

176749 | ![]() | Path alterations at Moss Bank | Other: Infrastructure general |
176748 | ![]() | The link between Fen Road and the towpath is 'closed' (though walkers can and do get around the side of the barrier at each end). There's nothing obvious yet to explain the closure. | Other: Infrastructure general |

176598 | ![]() | People might think that this refers to parking at the entrance to Grantchester Meadows, but no, it refers to South Green Road, the private close to the right. | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs |
176597 | ![]() | There was talk of parking being banned here (except for disabled blue badge holders?) but nothing has happened. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |

176441 | ![]() | It seems that providing car club parking also spurs provision of cycle parking. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
176394 | ![]() | The horizontals have been removed from the fence on the west side of the brook. They were on the outside of the posts, which I guess was the wrong side. | Other: Infrastructure general |

176336 | ![]() | Yellow 'nosings' are going onto the south steps beside the bridge | Other: Infrastructure general |
176335 | ![]() | This looks like the top-layer tarmac where the path beside the brook meets NCN51 (or becomes part of rerouted NCN51?). I couldn't tell what the circular inset and lettering (left foreground) signify. | Other: Infrastructure general |
176334 | ![]() | 'Landscaping' is underway on the roadside banks either side of the south end of the Newmarket Road underpass | Other: Infrastructure general |

176331 | ![]() | Cattlegrids protecting the bridge to the cafe site look rather close to the fairly sharp bend onto the bridge. | Other: Infrastructure general |

176313 | ![]() | The new CYCLOPS junction on Histon Road - I'm not sure why the No Right Turn sign is needed.. | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs |
176312 | ![]() | The painted edge to the new cycle lane on Histon Road turns into a kerb past these businesses. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
