The Forth & Clyde Canal towpath approaching Firhill Road bridge. This section has yet to be resurfaced. The section under the bridge is cobbled.

The resurfaced section of the canal towpath between Applecross Street and the Claypits bridge only starts at the end of the cobbles.

The burst water main in #189435 has been repaired and the road patched, but the pothole has been left untouched!

No surface improvement to the canal towpath at Firhill Road. The improvement stops at the Ruchill Street bridge.

Parking across a cycle track traffic filter. This area is a Controlled Parking Zone "park in marked bays only".

Oh good. Cobbles https://t.co/jb9o6qoSez

Dalsholm Bridge has had its deck surface replaced by slippery, lumpy cobble stones, and if you fall off spiky railings have been fitted to the bridge's parapets.

Slippery cobbles being installed on Dalsholm Bridge.

Maybe it's because I don't enter Speirs Wharf from Craighall Road very often, but I almost cycled down the cobbled slope since I was this time going to turn left down the ramp to Garscube Road. The layout here could be better. The steps … [more]

The path from Shields Road and Scotland Street runs alongside the northernmost section of Shields Road before rejoining the road. The asphalt strip gets progressively narrower, forcing everyone onto the cobbles.

The surface of Lymburn Street is rather bumpy, with poorly relaid cobbles.

Messy obstructed cycleway on Douglas Street, with a totally inappropriate surface. Just like the one on Waterloo Street to the left (see #95475 and #95476).

The wet tyre tracks in the Gordon Street contraflow cycle lane reveal that some motorists are entering it in lieu of slowing down to make a tighter turn.

I don't know why the path doesn't continue behind the wall. The cobbles are not everyone's cup of tea.

A poor change of surface on the path from Crookston Road into Rosshall Park.

A terrible change of surface on the path from Rosshall Park to Crookston Road. Mind how you go!

The full length of the Pearce Lane cycle track. For some strange reason, the dropped kerb at Water Row does not extend to the full width of the cycle track.

A protected cycle lane along Pearce Lane, between Pearce Street and Water Row.

A fairly new cycle link on Hopehill Road, including some new green space created by shortening the former carriageway on this side of the closure.

The footway of Old Polmadie Road has been designated as a shared-use footway, with hazards such as cars being reversed out of driveways, and the alternative is the road with rough surfaces through each junction. This will become the direct … [more]

A rough surface at each junction, but the footway through this residential area has been designated shared-use, with all the hazards that might be expected, such as car drivers reversing cars out of driveways.

A rough surface for cycling, but barely noticeable in a car.

Despite the Clyde Gateway road and new police headquarters being built alongside, the cobbled ramp still remains unaltered. A flight of concrete steps has been provided for access to the police headquarters.

The Sighthill diversion route is obstructed by an undropped kerb.

A pothole in Radnor Street, with exposed cobbles. UPDATE 2020: Road now resurfaced.

An extremely narrow section of path along the canal below the Ruchill St bridge. Shameful that something so bad could have been built in modern times! See update at #185407.

A path from Hamilton Road through to Greentree Drive.

Glasgow really pushing the boat out on cycling infrastructure I see... https://t.co/xEq1oobYaI

Not the best surface for a cycle path. A dropped kerb for joining from the carriageway would also be advantageous.

"No Entry except buses and taxis" at the former Water Bus terminal, now part of NCN75.

The cobble replacement work only goes so far, so together with the bumpy path opposite Speirs Wharf means the canal path is still not the ideal route into the city from the northwest that it could be.

Access from Baird's Brae to the canal bridge and city-bound path is cobble-free, but the left turn towards Maryhill involves crossing a strip of cobbles.

New smooth shared path down Baird's Brae.

Some new surfacing on the canal path at Baird's Brae, partly replacing cobbles

Cycle track through closed off road between Claremont St and Argyle St.

No dropped kerb to access shared-use footway on Dover St.

Access to the path in front of the Sheriff Court is via a dropped kerb protected by double yellow lines.

What in the name of all that is good is this absolute travesty of cycle infra? It's narrower than my handlebars! https://t.co/NkrqTPyWYb

Now that this dropped kerb forms part of a cycle route, it might be time to trim back the lower branches on these trees.

A dropped kerb has been provided at the end of Carlton Place.

The traffic signals on Candleriggs don't exempt cycles from their mandatory left and right turns, even though King Street ahead has a contraflow cycle lane. Location: Candleriggs, Glasgow (Scotland, United Kingdom)

Cobbled backlane cycle route off of Regent Park Square.

The best result of Glasgow's @nextbike scheme would be if @GlasgowCC spot how rubbish our cycle infrastructure is. http://t.co/O2BAfSUApj

A diversion sign for NCN75

Sign for Colleges Cycle Route, but with no destination.

The route under the bridge leads to North Woodside Road.

Temporary NCN75 diversion around the section of Anderston Quay wall that collapsed, somewhat narrow and cobbled at this end (see also #47843 and #47844) UPDATE: A thin strip of tarmac has now been laid alongside the cobbles and the fence … [more]

Rails, cobbles, rough tarmac and just dirt. No expense has been spared in creating a tactile experience for cyclists avoiding the stepped footbridge on NCN 7! Path connects SECC and Riverside Museum (see #37217). Note cyclist preferring … [more]

Cobbles in Carlton Place

Steep cobbled ramp access to NCN 75 cycle path at Rutherglen Bridge. Megabucks are being spent rebuilding the road at this location, but will any money go on the cycle path access? Update at #71262.
