The door-zone cycle lane revert to a kerb-side cycle lane, but the parking continues.

The Albert Drive cycle lane remains much as before, including in the door-zone past the car parking bays. The traffic island over the railway bridge is more recent.

The sharrows encourage cycling in the door-zone, adjacent to the parked cars.

Parking bays have been painted on the road adjacent to the double white lines. Even on a bike, there is insufficient room to safely pass parked vehicles without crossing or straddling the double white lines. The parking bays and double … [more]

Start of repainted narrow door-zone cycle lane in Whitefield Road.

Narrow door-zone cycle lane repainted.

Start of the faded door-zone cycle lane in Maxwell Drive. The cycle lane in the opposite direction has already expired by this point.

Door-zone cycle lanes on Maxwell Drive.

Door-zone cycle lanes on Maxwell Drive.

The cyclist avoids the pavement cycle lane that the driver up ahead is in the process of parking in.

Although armadillos have been provided on one side of this section of Provanmill Road, this side has been left much as before, with the cycle lane outside of the parking layby and now with a narrow buffer zone.

Deteriorating road surface beyond the mini-roundabout on Alderman Road. The cycle lane appears to be in the poorest of condition compared to the surrounding road surface.

Deteriorating road surface on much of the Alderman Road cycle lanes. The opportunity could be used to swap the parking and cycle lanes about, which would result in less wear and tear on the cycle lane in future.

Pop-up cycle lane on Hawthorn Street. At this point, the door-zone painted cycle lane (see #156185) leads into the remains of the original cycle lane in Hawthorn Street (see #25292), without addressing the problem of them being on the wrong … [more]

Pop-up cycle lane on Hawthorn Street. At this point, it is a door-zone painted cycle lane next to marked car parking bays.

The painted cycle lane on Gorbals Street zig-zags around some parking bays before returning to the kerbside.

The doorzone pop-up cycle lane returns to the kerbside in Bilsland Drive, but the car parking continues towards the pinchpoint.

The start of the next section of pop-up cycle lane in Bilsland Drive. The centre line has been realigned.

The pop-up cycle lane in Bilsland Drive at the junction with Shannon Street. The parking layby outside the shops is not wide enough for the vehicles parked there, leading to them spilling over into the cycle lane.

@GlasgowCC @SustransScot That's great! But why the parking spots just down the road before the British Linen Building? They have not been there before, there is no need and it generates a dangerous bottleneck between opening car doors on … [more]

@MCRCycleSam @RantyHighwayman @CyclingSurgeon @theJeremyVine I guess we should also factor in that you’ll have double deckers coming straight at nearly on the line... 😶 https://t.co/6dNqsRA9eY [See also #139326]

We asked for #SpaceForPeople, but we didn’t ask for skinny lanes, no segregation, and real life experience of the surface of the moon! We can do better! ☹️ https://t.co/dHxTevjhpx [See also #139536]

A contraflow cycle lane has been created on Argyle Street, but it is full of broken asphalt and dislodged stonework, and is nowhere near a smooth ride. With on-coming vehicles now in the centre of the carriageway (as in #139536), less … [more]

If only there was some space for cycling on Queen Margaret Drive.

This is what happens when you resurface the car driving lane and not the cycle lane. A few years later and the surface has deteriorated so much that it can barely support the road markings.

The usual obstructive parking encroaching the door-zone cycle lane and pavement parking in Alderman Road. Maybe it's time for the Alderman Road scheme to be ripped up and a cycleway built next to the footway and car parking placed next to … [more]

The Govan Road shared-use footway with the door-zone buffer strip in action.

The parking layby is again too narrow for ordinary cars to be reliably parked within, so eroding the buffer zone that is meant to contain door openings.

The proposed cycleway for Jura Street will be on the left side, and end at a toucan crossing across Paisley Road West to Bellahouston Park. So this door-zone cycle lane will be removed.

And it wouldn't be #GlasgowCycleInfraDay17 without mentioning the killing doorzone of Kilmarnock Rd. Unacceptable danger from @GlasgowCC https://t.co/wz8LrYtOGE

A pathetic worn-out narrow painted door-zone cycle lane in Kilmarnock Road from the council that won the "Achievements in Cycling" award at the 2017 Scottish Transport Awards.

The cycle lane shifts from the kerbside to the door-zone.

The narrow door-zone cycle lane swerves into the back of some parked cars. On the other side of the road, there's a car parked partly in the cycle lane, partly on the footway.

The Broomhouse cycle lane goes over a flattened build-out, then becomes a painted door-zone cycle lane.

Painted cycle lanes on West Street. Perhaps the designer could look up the Traffic Signs Manual's road markings section to see how cycle lanes are meant to start.

Buffer strip on edge of shared-use footway outside Scotland Street School museum not actually wide enough to give full protection from opening car doors, and double yellow lines don't mean there will never be opening car doors there.

How wide is a car door? Answer: a bloody lot wider than that "buffer"! @S4CGlasgow http://t.co/DGu9j9prVy

The door-zone cycle lane in Albert Drive reverts to the kerbside.

The westbound cycle lane in Albert Drive is also in the door-zone.

The Albert Drive cycle lane moves from kerbside to the door-zone.

New door-zone cycle lanes on West Street, including a zig-zag where the road changes width.

@GoBikeGlasgow @GlasgowCC repainting lines and "bike lanes" on Highburgh Road. Car space too narrow, even for a mini! http://t.co/z8q3z3cGmB

@magnatom @S4CGlasgow meanwhile in Pollokshields no #space4cycling here, just another door zone paint job. http://t.co/DgrhnjWr6T

More door zone death traps #GlasgowCycleInfraDay t.co/ME40Iu5fII

Narrow door-zone cycle lanes on Kilmarnock Road. Cyclists cycling outside of the cycle lanes get extra hassle from passing motorists. Layby isn't even wide enough for normal-sized cars to park in!

Narrow door-zone cycle lanes on A77 Kilmarnock Road. Photo also shows typical standard of road maintenance in 2011 Glasgow.
