Head uphill towards the path at the edge of the roundabout to avoid the chicane at the corner of the shop
Clara Rackham Street's connection to Cromwell Road should be OK for Chisholm Trail phase 2 if the proposed connection further south gets silly chicanes etc.
Expected to be part of Chisholm Trail phase 2 The Trail turns left towards Cavendish Place beyond the Heras fence
The only sign of a possible alternative connection between Chisholm Trail and Sedgwick Street - beyond the fence at the end
Expected to be part of Chisholm Trail phase 2 Wonder what will appear instead of this, to prevent vehicle through-route?
Southern access on Cavendish Place to the Timberworks development off Cromwell Road. It might turn out to be the southern end of Chisholm Trail Phase 2 for quite a while - but it's still part of the construction site at the moment.
Handles on the sides of the bollard - and there are evidently times of day when building shadow can significantly impair visibility.
Raised reflective studs doing, for a change, what they are meant to do by guarding the bollard - but handles on the sides of the bollard.
Four redundant, raised, hazardous, reflective studs - and handles on the sides of the bollard beyond.
Three redundant and now hazardous raised reflective studs, and one (on the right) raised and hazardous cover on bollard socket.
After negotiating the narrow gap, you're heading straight for a pair of redundant reflective studs, which stand sufficiently proud to cause problems for small-wheel bikes (or scooters) if struck obliquely.
Unacceptable old markings for a very narrow cycle lane, now heading straight for a narrow gap between lamp post and bollard.
Reflective tape has been added, but with unhelpful red/white orientation for travel in this direction.
Some reflective tape has been added - with appropriate red-white orientation from this side but as for two lanes in the same direction.
The barriers seen in #51104 have been replaced, and there are now cycle stands instead of car parking to the right.
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 alignmen ... [more]
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.
Pedestrian gate, and part of the fence around the cattlegrid, now installed. Several bits still to do.
Potential access to Chisholm Trail spur from Cityglades access road. Currently blocked by capped-off (disused?) oil pipes.
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.
The cattlegrid beside the south ramp is in, and some (but not all) parts of its black fence are on site.
Wayfinding signs waiting to go up. Two direct walkers to Ditton Meadows and riders to Cambridge North and Chesterton. One is for NCN51 towards Fen Ditton and Bottisham. There seem to be at least three more in the heap.
Someone's noticed a deadline: Sunday working to level and roll a section of Trail sublayer next to Barnwell Lake.
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.
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.
This junction between the Trail on Ditton Meadows, and the path from Ditton Walk & Wadloes Road, now has a bit of splay - and a new marker post.
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.
'Landscaping' is underway on the roadside banks either side of the south end of the Newmarket Road underpass
Cattlegrids protecting the bridge to the cafe site look rather close to the fairly sharp bend onto the bridge.
The bridge surface is now made from decking-style slats, with two narrow non-slip stripes on each slat. It is better than the previous plain boards.
Present state of the south compound at Newmarket Road. (The portacabins have been relocated near the road - not removed.)
Wooden fence going up on the south bridge ramp, and in the distance work ongoing on surfacing the Trail
The bridge is 'same width as path' (or, strictly, path is going to be same width as bridge): it's ~3.5m wide on the approach.
Surprised and rather delighted that a leaflet delivered door to door is about Cycle Theft. For a monthly fee they offer GPS tracking and 24/7 recovery for your bike or ebike. Some video testimonies on their website: https://www.backp ... [more]
As expected, installation of bird mesh involves removal of the tall wooden fence that's been making it more difficult to spy on progress
