A cycle hangar near Radcliffe Library. I'm not sure who this is for but it's a very welcome sight.

Premium Radweg Zwischenahn - Oldenburg at Portsloger Da. .

This bus (see in distance) took 14 minutes to get through Mill Road’s traffic, for a distance of just under 500m. That means bus passengers have to endure a speed of 1.3mph (2.1km/h) thanks to car traffic blocking its way.

See previous picture, #197937, for the first timestamped start point.

Time between these photos is 14 minutes:
18:09:46 - 18:23:39

Cycle parking hoop on the wall provided by Spokes East Kent Cycle Campaign in 1997.

Modal filter (to the right) - the old road (which may once have been a mineral railway) is now available as a cycle route alongside the B4418

Pavement parking blocks shared path

This path is directly outside a primary school and is used every school day by parents and children but is only just wide enough to walk along with a pushchair, myself and many other parents agree that this is dangerous with it being so close to a main road, there is plenty of muddy grass that could be used to widen the path making it safer and more accessible for pedestrians

There seems to be a shared-use path here, ending where the cycle route turns left.

[Image taken 26.9.23] Suzuki Centre, Burton Stone Lane, York. This street is dominated by motor vehicles. There’s one regularly outside the Suzuki showroom (www.yorksuzuki.com/). Today it was partly on the double yellows and obstructing access to/from the dropped kerb. It’s a large van and exacerbates community severance. Other image today and links: #197912.

[Image taken 26.9.23] Burton Stone Lane, junction with Ratcliffe Street, York. This damage was not repaired when much of this road was: #193155. Location this damage: #197915. Other images here today: #197916, #197917, #197918. Worryingly on 25.9.23 CYC emailed: “Having checked with our external design consultant, there is no further work scheduled by the contractor to patch the missed sections of Burton Stone Lane.”
An email from CYC in April 2023 said:
“This section at the junction of Ratcliffe Street was part of our intended patch repair works. I’m sure you are already aware that this couldn’t be done when the contractor was here previously – this was due to scaffolding on the adjacent building protruding onto this section of the carriageway at the time.”
“This area will be patch repaired in due course. I’m currently waiting for our design consultants to confirm a date for the contractor to return to complete the missing items / remedial works. They will send out a notification letter to the affected residents confirming the arrangements at the appropriate time.”
The very vulnerable non motorised users of Burton Stone Lane were not responsible for the scaffolding or a presumed miscommunication about the dates it was to be put up or remained in place. Yet, with the nights drawing in and fast, cyclists, pedestrians and wheelers (non motorised mobility scooter users) will be at risk for as long as the damage remains unrepaired.

[Image taken 26.9.23] Pizza Time, Burton Stone Lane junction with Garth Terrace, York. The area of damage in the forecourt of this takeaway continues to get larger and deeper. I'll try the Ward Councillor again. I'll try local press. Context: #190155. Other image today and links: #197912.

[Image taken 26.9.23] Railway Walk, York. [NOTE: No street view at this exact location.]
The foliage has still not been cut this year. The greenery extending from behind the fence alongside the York-Scarborough line is reducing the already too narrow NMU route by just under 1m.
All users are walking single file... Yet, the group facing away from the camera have wheeled luggage. This means they are very probably visitors and heading for the accommodation on the other side of the rail line or in the area around Bootham and Clifton. The evening before I'd walked to and from the station along here in the dark. It was unpleasant - I could not converse with the person I'd gone to meet (who was wheeling his cycle) as we had to walk Indian file due to the number of other pedestrians and cyclists. Walking/cycling one behind the other is not comfortable or sociable. We need people to choose train travel over motor vehicles but it is Network Rail that has not cut back the greenery this year.
This route is part of the Scarborough Bridge to Bootham Park cycle route improvements scheme see: #177537.

[Image taken 24.9.23] Sainsbury’s, Jockey Lane, Monks Cross, Huntington, York. The cycle parking at this Sainsbury’s (stores.sainsburys.co.uk/0713/monks-cross) is well used. Putting a rubbish bin between two Sheffields means these two racks cannot be used. Plus, these are the ones closest to the trolley bay and the shop entrance.

[Image taken 24.9.23] Cycle Heaven, Hospital Fields Road, York. The non-standard securing point - a railing - is being well used today. Perhaps the riders of the cycles with child carrying-options had been on the 2023 Kidical Mass ride (www.yorkpress.co.uk/sport/23814762.york-cycle-campaign-holds-mass-ride-kidical-mass-movement/) that finished very close by.

Nailsea school have closed the back entrance saying it is not safe. 20mph and a wider pavement would help ensure students are safer travelling to and from school.

The connection from Melbourne Way to Hollywell Road only has a dropped kerb on one side, meaning that cycles need to use the narrow pavement rather than going straight from road to road. A dropped kerb should be added on the Hollywell Road side.

Persistent traffic and thin pavements make cycling appealing but impractical. The road is probably spacious enough to permit a cycle lane
