Is there a map of physically segregated cycle lanes in London? The TfL cycle maps I've seen don't distinguish between segregated lanes and blue paint.

If there was, it would only have a few lanes on there.

Sustrans have an ok map for cycling facilities, although they don't state if they are segregated.

The only two I can think of in London are Calthorpe St in Camden & Bayliss Rd in Southwark (Then again even Bayliss Rd isn't fully segregated)

Oh and that one that runs east...

Aren't they mostly pretty crap though? The one I've used to get from Kings Cross to Paddington (I don't know my London well enough to know where exactly it is) is barely wide enough for two riders to pass eachother.

Sounds like Calthorpe



Yeah a fully segregated high quality bike lane is indeed a rare thing.


I've looked at the map and I think the bit I use occasionally to get from one station to another, (Kings X to Padd) is called Tavistock Place or Square or something. This is a Streetview image of it. A couple of feet or so wider and it would be pretty decent.

Yes, that's the one I mentioned above. When yiu get to the bit near Gordon sq you get lots of cars turning right ( the cycke path is also on the right for both directions ) and not sure how many cars know to look back in the direction they were coming from to check for bikes.

Seems like an accident waitIng to happen but it's been like that for a number of years and I could be underestimating the drivers.

Thanks - I'm planning to put together a video of the ones that exist. Gaz, if you can give a more specific location for the Victoria / Pimlico ones, that would be great.

There's a nice stretch along Skinner Street in Finsbury - a segregated lane on each side of the road. I use it when I'm in London for work to get from Kings Cross to Barbican and back on Boris Bikes, and wish more of the route was the same standard. It's pretty narrow, but not such a problem when it's only one way. Streetview link:
