Nasty sign prohibiting play with threat of £500 fine. PROHIBITED ON THIS AREA THE PLAYING OF ANY BALL GAMES AND GAMES BY ADULTS AND CHILDREN OVER THE AGE OF 10 YEARS West Midlands County Council Act 1980 Section 6 Maximum Penalty £500
This former railway line goes beneath Bolton Road and would allow for a direct connection to Blackleach Country Park. Bolton Road is very busy, this would create an excellent cycle route if built.
Westmorland and Furness. Foxfield near Broughton in Furness West bound on A595 near the junction with with Foxfield Road Warning signs are obscured by vegetation. Outside the entrance to Eccles Rigg Leisure LA20 6BN. Both the warning of a … [more]

The cycle parking at the National Trust's Godolphin House is at the far end of the disabled car park. Obviously. No need for any signage then. Unlike for the walking routes to the route.
Trafford near Manchester Cavendish Street Stretford . A sign instructs drivers to park one side only. Clearly not enforced.

Stretford near Manchester A56 near Chapel Lane north bound carriageway. Illegal sign instructing cyclists to dismount and use footway when the road is open to traffic ! This sign is only to be used on streets where motor vehicles are also … [more]
Eaton Road SALE contraflow opportunity for cyclists. "Except Cyclists" sign required underneath. Warning signs required on the traffic flow side.. This may require a TRO (ideally on an area wide basis) which is a lot easier than you may … [more]
Right turns from Renfrew Street into West Nile Street are now legal for buses, so why not for cycles? Buses on diversion were using this turn back in 2018, before the signs were changed.
This is a two-way cycle route (V61), in theory, so there needs to be an Except Cycles exemption plate.
Signs like this mean 'We know there's a need for cycle parking here, but we're not going to do anything about it'.
Letter to residents illustrating the disjuncture and confusion between Cambridgeshire County Council and the Greater Cambridge Partnership
Very unhelpful sign - the cycle parking is at the far end of the car park but they don't want cyclists to go that way, they have to use the road or dismount and use the footway.
No Cycling sign on Brandon Parade, Motherwell. The precinct is one of only a few traffic-free streets in the busy gyratory system around the town centre.
Why on earth is there a no cycling sign sign here? The Bay cycleway follows the main road at the T junction
The sign says 'Cycle Lane Closed Ahead' but the section has far as Bedford Lane is as good as open. The closure is at Norfolk Court. No diversion information is given, but the only likely diversion is into the main carriageway, so this sign … [more]

Very badly faded No Cycling sign and an escooter on this bit of scrub near Willow Way, Water Eaton, Bletchley.
The sign reads: 'Changes in Mount Tauro already in 2024. More comfortable paths and new recreation areas' - with an image of a cyclist, but a huge park is entirely fenced off for the construction of a new National Concert Hall, including … [more]
Cyclists Dismount sign, alas, on the good spine route south to Bratislava-Petrzalka station (EuroVelo 13)
Repair works being undertaken by Cambridge Water. Looking at how much of the road ahead has actually been taken up with these roadworks (roughly half) I'm at a loss, once again, to understand why it is that cyclists are asked to dismount.
No Entry, but Please ride considerately? Clearly an Except Cycles plate is missing - but the design of this whole route is based on it being closed for major events and used for motor vehicles.
[UPDATE: On 2.2.23 the utilities company responded: "I have spoken with the site manager and he will speak to team on site to get things rectified as soon as possible."] [Image taken 1.2.23] Skeldergate, York. Where should this sign be? … [more]
[Image taken 1.2.23] Skeldergate, York. Damaged Northern Gas Networks signs with their name and contact details. This is surprising. Northern Gas Networks usually set standards for people to be able to see which company is doing the works … [more]
[Image taken 1.2.23] Skeldergate, York. Two ghost signs. One obstructing the pavement. One in the kerb further restricting the width of an already narrow route. Are they part of the Northern Gas Networks works signage? (See: #190584 and … [more]

[UPDATE: #190995] [Image taken 25.1.23] Foss Islands Path junction with Wigginton Road link, York. [NOTE: No street view at this location] You would come off if you cycled into this thick mud. On foot you’d get very muddy. A child might … [more]

[UPDATE: The sign was removed within a few days of my reporting it.] [Image taken 25.1.23] Foss Islands Path junction with Wigginton Road link, York. [NOTE: No street view at this location] Poor surface sign. Where does it refer to? Why is … [more]
Cyclists are supposed to ride on the cobbles and dismount on the smoother surface, That's not likely to happen.
Presumably there should be a '100 metres ahead' plate - otherwise access to the Sainsburys parking places would be illegal Mon-Fri 7am-7pm.
A vandalised 20mph reminder sign, with a contradictory 30mph sign on the joining side road. Also, a commercial vehicle parked on the footway, including tactile paving, at the junction.

[UPDATE 12.1.22: This sign has now gone.] [Image taken 6.1.23] Bootham/Bootham Bar, York. Askham Lane is nowhere near here. Another temporary sign/Aboard that is clutter at best but also misleading and a hazard. How did it get here? There … [more]
[UPDATE: On 2.2.23 CYC said it had removed the sign and the sandbag. I saw later in the day that both had gone.] The sign [NOTE: On 23.1.23 this sign was still in situ despite my reporting it to the company A Plant Lux. I will now ask CYC … [more]

[Image taken 21.2.22] Burton Stone Lane, junction with Crichton Avenue, York. I saw this week this new sign: "Bootham Crescent No site traffic" (context: #182417) had gone up. So why is there no warning to all users of the changes to the … [more]

Pedestrians and cyclists on the almost invisible cycleway have priority over the road from the left.
[Image taken 20.11.22] Burton Stone Lane, York. I asked this couple if I could take this photo. They agreed immediately. They are on the pavement on the east side and heading north. They are therefore facing the oncoming traffic. People … [more]
[Image taken 10.11.22] Station Rise, York. This sign is not facing the traffic. So it is not doing its job. But it is not causing a hazard... Context and links: #187649.
Cycles only beyond this point? The one on the nearside of the crossing should not be there, and signs to diagram 955 should have the bicycle symbol with the front wheel to the left. Just after I took the photo, a delivery van driver used … [more]
There are No Cycling signs (in both directions) halfway along the path to the temporary metro station at Hoek van Holland Haven.
No Cycling on the closed road from the new car park to the Cap Fréhel lighthouse. Seems very silly to me, just put in some proper cycle stands there and let people ride.
A car-sized gap between the water-filled barriers and the sign-post. The barriers are no replacement for the four bollards that used to be here before COP26.
[Image taken 19.7.22] Terry Avenue (Millennium Bridge, end) York. [NOTE: No street view at this location] There is no signage declaring, “Terry Avenue is again open to people cycling, walking, wheelchairing. Come and enjoy the serenity, the … [more]
