Cyclists can't legaly cycle to the Cyclebahn by the CGB from Iceny Way here. This no entry needs to be made "except cyclists".

Cycleway on the Guided Bus maintenance track at Orchard Park is signed here as segregated use. No it isn't, it's shared as on the other 16 miles. Sign needs to be changed.
The entrance to Cornell Court features "cul-de-sac" signs. As at other place in Orchard Park they have to add "except cyclists", as the cul-de-sac is permeable for bicycles and pedestrians and bicycles are vehicles.
In April 2013 some road in Orchard Park (e.g. Cornell Court, Sweetpeas Way etc) had not been finished. The entrance to Cornell Court a features "cul-de-sac" sign - #48528, as at other place in Orchard Park an "except cyclists" needs to be … [more]

This redmac pavement may or may not be a cycletrack, it is lacking signage. Here the dropped kerbs follow the desire line but are not flush (see #48519). At Graham Road the dropped kerbs are far around the corner. There is also a colour … [more]
