[Image taken 26.7.21] Marygate car park, York. [Note: No street view at this location.] Surely this sign can be removed now. Together with the redundant barriers in: #172631.
[Image taken 28.7.21] Deangate/Minster Yard, York. On my way through (in the direction the camera is facing) there was a York, yellow, minibus where this car is. It was disgorging a group of passengers into the path of people cycling in th ... [more]
[Image taken 28.7.21] Tanner's Moat, York. 16.30-ish and at the works compound behind me looked as if everyone had left. So I lugged the signs, the sandbags and the cone out the way. They are very heavy but there was no-one here just then t ... [more]
[Image taken 28.7.21] Tanner Row, York. Cargo cycle, design Bullitt (www.larryvsharry.com) extended the variety of transport modes here. Other image this location today: #172632. Other images today: #172629 and links.
[Image taken 28.7.21] Tanner Row, York. Another cone not in place so not doing its job but instead blocking access to other infra, in this case Sheffield racks (cycle parking). Search on 'redundantcone' for more instances. Other image this ... [more]

Overgrown bushes along the path towards Pollok House from the southern side of the Pollok Estate. This was in the process of being cut back a little distance further on.
The Benalder Street cycle track ends at the Castle Street junction. It is not obvious what is to happen here.
The crossings at the Old Dumbarton Road/Benalder Street junction still await raised carriageways, so these two had to bump the kerb in order to join the cycleway.
The crossings on Old Dumbarton Road still do not have raised carriageways, so continue to hinder cycling across. However, the cycleway is still blocked further along.
The shared footway on Bunhouse Road has been rebuilt, but has not had its dividing line reinstated. The zebra crossing has a random section of tactile paving nearby with no obvious purpose.
The toucan crossing across Argyle Street has been replaced by a pedestrian crossing and a separate cycle crossing. However, the approach is a bit cramped behind a bit of wall.
[Image taken 27.7.21] Museum Street, York. I was behind this driver as he crossed Lendal Bridge. He had also obstructed the other (clearly marked) Keep clear space meaning the island was inaccessible to everyone trying to cross on foot incl ... [more]
[Image taken 27.7.21] Marygate car park, York. (Note: no streetview at this location.) There are light fittings along half of the hoardings only. They were on today but they don’t throw out much light. During 2020 this route was vibrant, ... [more]
[Image taken 27.7.21] Marygate car park, York. (Note: no streetview at this location.) The barricades (there's a second one against the fence in the background), the sandbags (intact and damaged) remain as trip hazards. They are now also at ... [more]
[Image taken 27.7.21] Marygate car park, York. (Note: no streetview at this location.) The only exit/entrance between the car park and the cycle-ped-wheelchair link passing it is blocked. The route through the car park is also used by peopl ... [more]
Footway dug up again, short section of old iron gaspipe removed, other utility ductwork not fairing well. Makes a depressing tale of retrograde progress when seen against https://www.cyclestreets.net/location/170640,171537,172406/
The narrow stone-covered membrane appears to cover a rainwater drainpipe. There's plenty of room outside it for a good wide path from bridge to towpath.
The only (?) info about the diversion anywhere 'on' Fen road - and I doubt if it is visible from the road.
First 'information' about the closure found when heading east. Absolutely nothing to indicate that there's a bypass.

[Newer image see: #170576] [Image taken 8.3.21] Just three of the potholes on Shipton Street, York between its junction with Pembroke and Newbrough Streets. From left: 36 x 34 x 4.5cm; 48 x 52 x 2cm; 29 x 68 x 3cm. On 4.3.21 Shipton Street ... [more]
[Update: I saw on 27.7.21 the holes have been filled] [Image taken 23.6.21] Shipton Street between Pembroke and Newborough Streets, York. Potholes cost money - to fix and in compensation: www.yorkpress.co.uk/news/public-notices/19389909.cou ... [more]
[Image taken 4.7.21] Marygate car park, York. Since the bam Nuttall hoardings/compound for works at Marygate/Museum Gardens (see: #169467) went up in May 2021, there’s only one pedestrian entrance/exit on this side of the car park and… ... [more]
Could be for the ramp from bridge to towpath, but it doesn't look very wide. Subsequently thought just to be cover on rainwater drainpipe next to the ramp.

172614 This is the end of a bus lane and opposite the entrance to a secondary school and also a bus stop it is meant to be a shared path for cycles but when people are waiting for the bus particularly after school there is no room for cycles and with it being the end of a bus lane and bus stop it can be extremely busy and cars cut across to go in to two lanes and turn on to Burnthouse lane the amount of cyclists who have been shouted at for using the pavement even though it is shared path is crazy. if the bus lane was extended to the bus stop and then a cycle path on the road to the traffic lights and a crossing at the bottom of Burnthouse lane rather than just across Topsham so that it's safer for cyclists and pedestrians trying to cross would make it at least a little safer- 172601 Given Exwick Rd/Buddle Lane is part of E1 cycle route and a major commuting route between residential Exwick/St Thomas and Marsh Barton there should be a segregated cycle route - the busy roads congested and constricted with parked cars on either side often make it feel very unsafe to cycle along

- 172596 Queen Street desperately needs a segregated cycle lane, from the clock tower to Paul St
- 172595 Very narrow pavement on one side of the road, barely wide enough to walk along (approx 1-2ft) on a very narrow 2-way road.
- 172594 Very narrow two-way road, often unsafe for cycling
