[Image taken 24.3.23] Hawthorn Terrace (the Folk Hall is on the left in the distance), New Earswick, York. A hole, patched - uneven - tarmac and loose gravel. The latter is a hazard for all two-wheeled road users - engine or human powered. ... [more]

This article in the Cambridge Independent, March 2023, shows the value of parking in Cambridge. It demonstrates the enormous subsidy that people get when parking on-street for free, given the value of land in Cambridge. And yet some people ... [more]
[Image taken 23.3.23] Grosvenor Terrace/Scarborough Terrace junction with Grosvenor Road, York. This driver is on a buildout with double yellows all around. This means no road user or pedestrian can see. I feel she was waiting for someone � ... [more]

Sale in Trafford near Mancheter . Correct sign for roadworks here . " Narrow Lanes do not overtake cyclists "
The start of the unsigned diversion route for the canal towpath closure still has signs up for the Stockingfield diversion.
The canal towpath is now closed for resurfacing. Work can be seen going on in the distance. However, the only information for the diversion route is on the notice at the closure. The route itself, which is via the parallel main road, is not ... [more]
The surface of this former sewage treatment site is sealed with tarmac. Somebody decided to paint lots of parking slots on here, but apparently never used. It is just poor practise.
The road to the right has now been paved (see #71336 ) and winter tyres are required on the Cund road (in winter, presumably) - but the distance is still wrong.
There's a surprising amount of cycling in Dumbraveni, despite or even because of the fact that the whole place has been dug up.

Level crossing closed as part of the rebuilding of the railway - all the more reason for a decent cycleway to the station.
Dumbraveni station - thoroughly rebuilt, but without any off-road cycle access. It's about a kilometre from the town centre, ideal for jumping on a bike.

192223 There is frequent parking on double yellow lines here which reduces visibility and makes it very dangerous for children crossing the road to get to school. Increase patrol around drop-off time- 192222 Parking close to junctions here makes it dangerous for cycle users on the road as cars need to pull out into the road for visibility, where they can hit cyclists. Increase the use of double yellow lines
- 192221 The cycle path that goes up Thornpark rise runs out here. The pavement is wide and could easily be duel use to avoid interaction between cars and bikes
- 192200 Walking route needed through the station car park as the path by the back of Kwik Fit is overgrown, not overlooked and dark.
- 192199 The footpath all along here from the new houses is too narrow and overgrown to walk along as cars speed past.
- 192198 Footpath needs improving as it makes it hard to safely cross to Macknade and out into the countryside.
- 192183 Cars are parked on one side at all times. Bottleneck at peak hours as it becomes a one-way road. Please widen this road (from 2 to 3 lanes) or put a double yellow line. A temporary traffic light at peak times would also help. Cars can then get out of this junction safely. Right now, cars must skid and needle through the busy main road traffic from both ways to join it. Accidents are bound to happen.
- 192160 Timing of signal for cyclists going between Hyde Park/William St is awful. Lots of waiting even when people could go.
- 192124 Fatal collision Jeep and cyclist.

- 192117 Allow bike parking on the street with bike racks
- 192116 Stop pavement parking. Parking should only be allowed on one side of Nutgrove Avenue.
- 192115 Widen pavement and prevent car parking, road is very thin and narrow with parked cars, too many close passes of cars driving too fast.
