Riverside Cambridge This area has become a bit of a caravan park, and this vehicle has a rack on the back which could catch a passing cyclist.
@Cambridge_Uni - when did the pavement on Philippa Fawcett Drive become a car park? Would it be ok for me to park there too or is it reserved for fellows? @camcycle https://t.co/7yNFGfQWdz
Astonishing - there's a large car park but no cycle parking at all for Red Cross first aid courses at Lothbury House.
Why, @CambsCC, does electric car infrastructure have to take up pavement rather than road space? And @alexandrabulat, how is this compatible with the Riverside promenade vision? https://t.co/ocOpWJVRp9
Routine car storage on double-yellow lines on this dedicated cycle link around the Grafton Centre. Admittedly there’s enough space to pass (one way at a time) so you’d have to win that argument with an unsympathetic councillor. It’s part of … [more]
An Italian Job on Mill Road, plenty of outrageous driving through pedestrian areas in that movie! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Italian_Job
A large van trying to park on the footway comes within a foot of our front door. Noise and fumes come into the house. When I protest to the driver I get a load of verbal and aggro, but at least it ends amicably.
This car storage bay should be removed, to improve visibility and access to the cycling/walking cut-through
The exit to this important cut through has very little visibility when cars are parked, with a white H line that is too short. Those car storage spaces should be removed, now that residents’ parking has reduced the demand in the area.
The introduction of residents’ parking has meant that large amounts of commuter car parking has stopped, which is good; but the space should now be reclaimed by removing unused bays
There’s often plenty of space to make segregated cycleways... it’s just taken up by car storage instead.
Narrow Lane on Cambridge Retail Park, and there's a 5 mph sign. (You need to be pretty skilled to cycle as slow as that!)
Narrow cycle lane at Cambridge Retail park with a blue advisory sign that reads: Cyclists use cycle lane only
Vanishing point The white line goes right up to the kerb where there's a lamp post at which point the cyclist disappears!
The narrow cycle lane markings on each side both suggest to ride away from the camera, but this is not a one-way section of the car park.

Cambridge Retail Park A new narrow cycle lane has been marked out, narrower than the space allocated to the footway. Narrow cycle lanes draw cyclists to the edge of the road where they are less visible to vehicles parking / unparking.
Red Cross Lane - taxis are waiting here, in addition to Addenbrooke's staff parking - parking urgently needs to be eliminated as part of the post-Covid19 recovery plan.
Still a useless 'cycle lane' with cars parked in it. As they are allowed to do...single yellow line.
I measured the gap for pedestrians between the house and the dashed white line as 64cm here, the footway as 1.31 metres and the car space as 2.05 metres. Photo captured using the Measure app on an iPhone 7 … [more]
"The Courtyard" which sounds nice is actually more of a motor vehicle storage facility. The only cycle parking is against the walls.
Parker's Piece disgustingly being used as a car park, purely as a perk for ice rink staff, not for brief delivery reasons
Look how much safer things are here, how much more attractive, and how much space there is (e.g. for cycle parking, trees, play spaces) without the car storage
This car park is only used lightly - it would be best to remove it and turn it into a productive use of space - housing
Is replacement of the car park with a new car park really the best use of space here? Why not house people, and reduce car dependency, instead?
The parking on the right causes traffic, particularly buses, to queue and be delayed - but the street flows better when no vehicles are present
Car parking here needs to be stopped - the two left vehicles are on the pavement. This means that the intended route for cycles, behind the bollards, doesn't work.
Lots of space for a cycleway on Lensfield Road - a classic case of a road that looks narrow when parking is present, but is actually quite wide
