Hi
What's it like cycling on long straight roads with painted cycle lanes like Snaresbrook Road? Better or worse than your average commuter route?
I'm thinking of moving to near Walthamstow and since I'm a pansy and not a real cyclist my route would take me just down Snaresbrook Road from Woodford New Road, and around the corner to Snaresbrook tube station.
Going west there's a cycle lane painted on the pavement, so segregated from traffic by the kerb. Going East though it has a painted cycle lane on the road.
Of course it does vanish from time to time for no sane reason. Just for those zig-zag lines at the crossing, Mr(s) planner? Really?
I would have thought there are rarely cars parked there, so maybe it's not so bad...
