Alan Turing Way and Separated Bike Lanes

Not sure if the link will work, but this bit looks really scary:

Segregation ends just at a left filter lane for traffic.

Surprised they didn't add a "cyclists dismount" sign for an added kick int he teeth

I ride this road all the time. Most days some helpful motorist beeps and points out the bike lane! Oddly enough I am not usually in it. If you need to turn right at any of the junctions you have no chance as the bike lane joins the main carriageway too close to get across.

They are just wide enough for overtaking if you both have good bike skills, but those with good skills are on the road!

Those do look dangerous to me. There's one that I sometimes go past here - it starts just by those railings (great, so if you slip you don't flatten a pedestrian but get bounced back into traffic, but moving along). It runs along the side of that road on the pavement for all of one block. Good and well so far.

THEN, this - that's right, give us access to the ASL - but hang on, right at a junction? So, if you are here, and the traffic is moving, you have to wait till red. Most traffic there is either skew left or straight, but some cars will also want to turn left into the first road...

They have a cyclists dismount sign where the cycle lane is closed due to yet more roadworks at Cheapside bear Bank.

I really don't understand the sign even though it leads up to a one lane pinch point.Aren't we part of the traffic?I let a cop van through there on my last commute before I negotiated the said pinch point as I didn't want to hold plod up,even though he had given way to me in anticipation.I will take a pic on my next commute if I remember.
