Is it considered acceptable to park across a pedestrian crossing if the road is closed? I'm not sure it should be.
The dropped kerb allows cycle access onto the White Cart path, but for crossing going to Pollok Country Park, it is either go diagonally to the central reservation gap, or ride along the footway to the signalled crossing halfway to the next … [more]
The Brock Burn path reaches Kennishead Road, and a sign post points the way to the Darnley motorway path. There's a dropped kerb crossing here, and no dropped kerb at the start of the next path, so is that footway legal to cycle on? There's … [more]
The view from the cycle lane in Clyde Street. The left turn is unsignalled, with zebra crossings for pedestrians, while the straight across movement is signalled separately from motor traffic coming from Clyde Street. Perhaps a cycle slip … [more]
One of a number of pedestrian crossings on Thornliebank Road that have Advance Stop Lines for Cycles.
The South City Way cycleway now complete on Victoria Bridge. This is where it ends for now, until the section into the Merchant City via Bridgegate is built.
The South City Way cycleway finally complete past the Sheriff Court. However, the contraflow bus lane signs along this section are now out of date and need replaced.
The South City Way cycleway closed by roadworks at Norfolk Court. There is no signed diversion, but it should be obvious to most to divert via the main carriageway.
Bedford Lane has been closed to motor vehicles, so the cycleway runs uninterrupted past the junction.
A connection from the South City Way cycleway over to the site to the east, replacing the lane seen in #93385.
The sign says 'Cycle Lane Closed Ahead' but the section has far as Bedford Lane is as good as open. The closure is at Norfolk Court. No diversion information is given, but the only likely diversion is into the main carriageway, so this sign … [more]
The route across the vacant ground leads directly to the shops and the toucan crossing across Nitshill Road. This will be lost if the land is redeveloped without a formal path being formed.
Stickers stuck over the toucan crossing signal so that it is not obvious that crossing by cycle is allowed. Part of the Colleges Cycle Route on Cowcaddens Road.
The Sighthill Bridge is reached by busy main roads with no cycle facilities, or alternatively an awkward route around the houses in Townhead. The toucan crossing across Baird Street was not working when I visited.
Already indiscriminate parking is occurring on the roads next to the Sighthill Community Campus car park, blocking the crossing points for pedestrians on Sighthill Avenue.
The cycleway alongside Sighthill Avenue is open as far as Fountainwell Gardens. Already indiscriminate parking is occurring on the roads next to the car park, blocking the crossing points.
The path from Port Dundas Basin approaching Pinkston Road. The only dropped kerbs are at the crossing at the pedestrian refuge.

View from the (not quite open yet) cycle path this morning. Queen's Park to Glasgow city centre route almost complete from the looks of things. Markings & street trees being added now all the way up to the river. #SouthCityWay … [more]
The bollards removed for COP26 still have not been reinstated, and the plastic box keeps getting moved aside, allowing drivers to enter and leave the Kelvingrove Art Gallery grounds from Argyle Street, at the pedestrian crossing (see … [more]
A poor road environment on Sauchiehall Street at Charing Cross, leading to these two cycling on the footway and traffic island. And they weren't the only ones.
Was I imagining that this road got resurfaced last year? A very poor surface on a road that supposedly is the flagship Colleges Cycle Route. See #186854.
Traffic signals out again on Craighall Road. Not easy to see approaching traffic around the bend! The cycleway crosses here to get to the canal path at Speirs Wharf.
Incorrect corduroy 'hazard' tactile paving used on Sighthill Avenue, in contrast to the correct 'cycleway' paving mostly used on Pinkston Road. This is one of the main flagship routes in Sighthill.

Incorrect corduroy 'hazard' tactile paving used on Pinkston Road at Sighthill Avenue, in contrast to the correct 'cycleway' paving used elsewhere on Pinkston Road.
A new (not even open) cycleway alongside Pinkston Road, approaching its end before the railway bridge.
Toucan crossing on North Canal Bank Street, connecting the cycleway to the bascule bridge over the canal.
Old habits die hard when there's months between installation and commissioning, and this cyclist, despite having triggered the detector, went straight to the pedestian crossing rather than waiting at the cycle signals.
No improvement on last year then. Leaf mess all over the path, and the tactile paving is still wrong.
Cycles only beyond this point? The one on the nearside of the crossing should not be there, and signs to diagram 955 should have the bicycle symbol with the front wheel to the left. Just after I took the photo, a delivery van driver used … [more]
Highburgh Road, resurfaced, but awaiting reinstatement of road markings besides the stop lines for the toucan crossing.
Work continues on the Gorbals Street cycleway, which will form part of the South City Way. This is the toucan crossing where NCN756, the South Bank cycle route, crosses.
New planters, and the toucan crossing is now free from obstruction. However, the tiny 'No Entry' on the bollard on the right is incorrect because this is just the way you would pass to turn right into the Kelvingrove Art Gallery grounds.
Most folk may cross without making use of the toucan crossing in Kelvin Way, but that's no reason to block the crossing with planters. This raises accessibility issues.
A car-sized gap between the water-filled barriers and the sign-post. The barriers are no replacement for the four bollards that used to be here before COP26.
No path connection between the road crossing and the entrance to Hogganfield Park. Have to bump kerb and cross grass. This is a signed walking and cycling route, the Seven Lochs Trail.
Plenty of car parking spaces, but cycle parking hidden away on side streets. The rubber tactile matting is in a state of decay.
The Bunhouse Road cycle traffic signals are finally operational, about a year after installation. On this occasion the signal was triggered by someone cycling on the footway opposite. See also #183675.
The Bunhouse Road cycle traffic signals are finally operational, about a year after installation. However, some cyclists are continuing to use the pedestrian crossings, including this one who never pressed the button and had to wait a … [more]
The double yellow lines continue across the advisory pedestrian crossings and into the Restricted Parking Zone where double yellow lines are not meant to go. There are no markings or signs to say that the parking extending into the distance … [more]
The footway and crossings between Garscube Road and Cowcaddens, across and along Phoenix Road, have been shut as part of the M8 motorway viaduct repair work.
Cycle parking in Gibson Street, on the Colleges Cycle Route. The road lacks any cycle facilities, other than parkings stands. The delivery van is parked on the zig-zags of a pedestrian crossing. The sign to the right of the picture is … [more]
Another view of the 'Give Way' line in #182981. Note the pedestrian using the diagonal cycle crossing.
While the two crossings on Maryhill Road are pedestrian crossings, the crossing on the Hopehill Road side of the junction is a toucan crossing.
New detector strips have been installed at the North Woodside Road cycle traffic signals at the Maryhill Road crossing. UPDATE 16/6/2022: Arriving by bike, the detector did not cause the button to light up, so I had to press the button in … [more]
Detectors have been installed in the Argyle Street footway at the crossing to Bunhouse Road, not just on the side that cyclists will be approaching from, but also on this side which is not part of any cycleway. The signals remain bagged, … [more]
A detector has been installed in the Bunhouse Road cycleway, but is so close to the traffic signal users will have almost stopped before being detected.
The North Woodside Road scheme included shortening the length of the road available for driving by extending the cycleway. A zebra crossing has been provided for pedestrians accessing the steps to the supermarket.
The Maryhill Road crossing on North Woodside Road has now been completed. Corduroy tactile paving has again been used erroneously in place of the wider gap Cycleway type. Left and right turns have been banned with the Ahead Only sign.
The finished replacement crossing on North Woodside Road at Maryhill Road. Note the Ahead Only sign on the traffic signal.
Although Glasgow City Council has declared that closing Kelvin Way to motor vehicles is to be permanent, none of the motoring infrastructure has been removed. The railings, kerbs, bollards, parking meters, and this toucan crossing all … [more]
Cycle parking on Argyle Street, plus some random driver failing to yield to pedestrians crossing the road.
A zebra crossing on the Bunhouse Road cycleway. This one has tactile paving for pedestrians on one side only.
The incorrect tactile paving (corduroy in place of cycleway) is still in place on Old Dumbarton Road.
The Puffin crossing shows no signs of being converted to Toucan, or any other way of providing access to the still unfinished cycle route across the junction.
The bollards (see #172619) that were removed for the COP26 conference dinner at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery still have not been replaced, and taxi drivers are using the pedestrian crossing as a shortcut to exit the car park.
With the local elections approaching, I'd have thought that there would be a little more urgency to get the cycle routes that have been built already properly up and running, but no, the Argyle Street crossing has been rebagged. (See also … [more]
Construction of the rebuilt modal filter at North Woodside Road is nearly complete. The road and pedestrian traffic signals have been brought into use, but the cycle signals are still bagged up.
Erased markings at the junction of the Old Dumbarton Road, Benalder Street and Ferry Road cycleways. The plans used in the consultation period showed a mini-roundabout!
Unlike the approach taking at the previous junction, the crossings of the Old Dumbarton Road cycleway at the Ferry Road junction do not involve tactile paving on the cycleway and instead only have crossing tactiles at the pedestrian sides. … [more]
The Old Dumbarton Road cycleway still has incorrect corduroy (Hazard) tactile paving, and for some manoeuvers from Bunhouse Road, it is so close to the junction that cyclists will still be turning when crossing it. Leaf and other autumn … [more]
The Bunhouse Road cycleway crosses Old Dumbarton Road without priority, and illegal parking restricts visibility.
The Bunhouse Road cycleway priority crossing as seen from the car park. Restricted visibility, tiny Give Way markings and an offside information sign.
Priority has returned to the Bunhouse Road cycleway at the car park entrance, but has been indicated by a random use of miniature Give Way markings as the only indication of this.
Zebra crossings across both the carriageway and cycleway on Bunhouse Road. It is unclear whether pedestrians are allowed or barred from the former shared use footway.
Although now completely unbagged, the cycle traffic signal at Bunhouse Road doesn't seem to ever change to green.
Although now completely unbagged, the cycle traffic signals at the end of Argyle Street don't seem to ever change to green. The approach is still a mess.
The obstructive toucan crossing with kerbs and railings on one side still remains unmodified, and none of the other problems previously noted on the Bilsland Drive cycle lanes have been resolved either.
The new cycle track connecting the Tradeston Bridge to West Street. The route to the right is only for going to Paisley Road now, since the diagonal crossing at the Kingston Street junction has been removed and mandatory turn signs point to … [more]
The route sign says "Primary School" but the dropped kerb at the junction is of poor quality, with no obvious dropped kerb on the other side of the road closure in Dowanhill Street. The Colleges Route cycle lane has been made narrower and … [more]
The route sign at Kelvingrove Art Gallery has been reinstated after COP26. Interestingly, the walking and cycling directions to some destinations are different. The Kelvin Hall is referred to as Kelvinhall. The shortest route to the … [more]
