Parallel crossing at Addenbrooke's

Foot/cycle link from Darwin Green public square toward play area, and onward toward Windsor Road. At the time of writing (late 2023), the through route to Windsor Road is a temporary link which is only usable at evenings and weekends; it is … [more]

Pinch point where Whitehouse Lane gives onto paved footpath. (Less pinch-y than it used to be. See #198668 for view from opposite direction.)

Fen Causeway crossing improvements - we now have tactile paving, and a second request button at a suitable height for a penny-farthing or a horse-rider. I have no idea why.

New link to Clay Farm from the busway route

Link from the rear of the Abcam building to NCN route 11 (the Genome Path)

No cycles allowed on the car park access to the right - but the cycle route to the Abcam building actually passes through the car park to the left.

Parallel cycleways - good signage is needed at the junction behind the camera.

Start of new route (shared-use, I'd guess) in front of the Abcam building

Much bigger better ASL since the junction changes.

Brown's Field, Cambridge

New cycleway on Milton Road, Cambridge. Bus stop with advice to pedestrians to look, but nothing specific to slow cyclists.

Roadworks on Milton Road, Cambridge A footway cycle route is being created and new trees.

Milton Road works to create a new cycleway.

#CamRideHome at recently changed Barton Road junction.

New crossing - someone at the county council really wanted pedestrians to keep left and go right around Lammas Land while cyclists would keep right and take the direct diagonal. This did not survive contact with reality.

Start of new off-road cycleway to the Barton Road/Lammas land crossing

Looks like a tolerable bollard arrangement, but it may depend whether there is split blackmac/redmac surfacing here.

Not a great deal more to do.

Start of off-road section of cycleway to the Barton Road/Grantchester St junction

Start of route from the Observatory Building towards Storey's Way

Narrow route towards the Observatory Building

Junction of footpath (right) and two cycleways

Route to the west of Churchill College

New crossing on the Cambridge-Barton Road route

Crossing and new segregated route into Cambridge - pedestrians to the left, cyclists to the right (in theory - I think)

New segregated arrangement for cyclists and pedestrians (in theory - cyclists to the left, I think)

Start of new cycleway to the new Barton Rd/Grantchester St junction

New crossing on the Barton Road-Cambridge route

New segregated cycleway along the Barton Road

New cycle lane leading in to the Grantchester St ASL

Cattlegrid protecting the 'jetty' under the Trail and Rail bridges

The (unchanged, as far as I can see) grid that has recently been accused of allowing cattle onto the Chishom Trail

The bridleway skirting the Marleigh development at the Ditton Lane / Fison Road junction.

A toucan-style crossing by the AstraZeneca Travel/Logistics Hub (car/cycle park). Replaces a pedestrian crossing further north, which has been removed.

Unsurprising consequence of ill-thought attempt to deal with sub-optimal junction design. Still no visibility aids (reflectors) either, on what's left of the fence.

'Wrong way' cycle lane to cope with commuters to the Biomedical Campus - although its start behind the camera is very vague. Northbound cyclists use the on-road cycle lane.

Nightingale Avenue modal filter

The latest state of the Red Cross Lane cycleway (and smoking shed)

Modal filter near the Cambridge Biomedical Campus

Cambridge South station construction site, and NCN route 11 (the Genome Trail)

Trumpington busway stop Look Both Ways white lining has been refreshed.

Beware of buses the white lines have been refreshed.

Crossing under construction to the widened cycleway along the Barton Road

Electric charging points for e-taxis on Wadloes Road, adjacent to the cycleway.

Path from Howard Road toward Ditton Walk.

Shared use path between Ditton Walk, Wadloes Road and Howard Road. There's a blind corner and so railings are used to slow and segregate.

Cycle and pedestrian access to the new Civil Engineering building

Access to Chesterton Rec with cycle stands and a sign prohibiting motorbikes.

Not signed or set up for cycling but clearly a useful link.

Access to the route across Coldham's Common

Cattle grid and gate by the BMX Park, Coldham's Common

Is this a future link from the Ironworks development to the Chisholm Trail?

Cycle cut-through added long after the road was closed - the gap between the two bollards on the left is still a bit tight.

Road closure opposite Townsends bike shop - with cycle access belatedly added.

The cycleway inside the new wands now has a red surface - but I'd still worry about cars suddenly cutting across from the right to reach the car park.

A new stretch of segregated cycleway at Eddington

The off-road cycleway has become a contraflow lane to give access to the cycle parking at the Anglia Ruskin University buildings here.

East Road cycleway

East Road cycleway Triangular warning that cycles crossing. This is where motor traffic on the right crosses the cycleway.

Spent an interesting time this afternoon exploring - and measuring up - the "Dutch Roundabout" in Cambridge. The things one does for leisure after a PhD with a focus on accessibility… 😅 A very brief thread… cc @RantyHighwayman @camcycle … [more]

The bollard round the bend.

The maintenance track adjacent to the deprecated busway.

Permeability from Glebe Farm to the cycleway towards Addenbrooke's

Newly segregated stretch of cycle lane.

Cycle parking and the start of a newly segregated stretch of cycle lane (also visible on the far side of the road).

Informal crossing and cycleway towards the new Cavendish III lab.

Apparently there have been changes to the Storeys Way modal filter.

Apparently there have been changes to the Storeys Way modal filter. Cyclists don't use the cobbled route to the left.

Full moon over the cycle bridge at Cambridge station

The planters have been replaced by more bollards - no doubt it was easier to give alternative routes than to fix the flooding.

Link to/from the ring road

Entrance to Chisholm Trail from Newmarket Road. Q: What signage is there here to suggest this route is prohibited for motor vehicles? A: All I can see here are a shared-use cycleway sign behind the fencing on the left.

The newly resurfaced foot/cycle link between Trumpington and the guided busway, where it crosses Hobson's Brook.

Junction of newly resurfaced foot/cycle link from Trumpington with the guided busway.

New link from the busway and the Biomedical Campus

New link to the busway and Biomedical Campus

New cut-through parallel to the busway route

The concrete barriers have been replaced by nice planters, but the sign still calls this an experimental closure.

New shared space opposite the Cavendish III lab.

New cycleway - part of the Cavendish III scheme?
