I wonder whether it's to prevent motorists ironing out the bend and running into the bike lane. Though diverting the bike lane to protect it with a bit of traffic furniture seems so bizarre it makes it seem plausible.
Another one too bloody narrow even to paint their bike symbol in.
Not sure if I dare post this - it is likely to reduce cc-ers in Britain to paroxysms of mirth, and render any further attempt at communication tonight utterly useless. But fwiwAren't there any national standards for bike lane widths in the UK?
I can safely say I have NEVER, EVER, EVER seen a cycle lane 2 metres wide, not even in my dreams. . There is however a "common sense" relaxation in certain circumstances.Cycle lanes should be 2 metres wide on busy roads, or where traffic is travelling in excess of 40 mph.
Hmmm - there's precious few of those.A minimum width of 1.5 metres may be generally acceptable on roads with a 30 mph limit.
There's as many of these as there are unicorns.For cycle feeder lanes to advanced stop line arrangements, a minimum width of 1.2m may be acceptable
Don't you just love the little give way lines on these cycle lanes, what were these complete prats thinking of when they did that. They should have been sacked.gaz said:At least it isn't as bad as the facilities put down in Martin Way. Thankfully they have now been removed
