Is it considered acceptable to park across a pedestrian crossing if the road is closed? I'm not sure it should be.

Parking restrictions are only theoretical in this city. Park where you want, commercial drivers!

One of a number of pedestrian crossings on Thornliebank Road that have Advance Stop Lines for Cycles.

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.

The road environment around Cowcaddens hasn't persuaded this person to cycle on the road.

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.

The St Andrews Drive cycleway is now rideable.

While the Nithsdale Road railway bridge is being rebuilt, the Strathbungo footbridge in Moray Place has been made accessible, in advance of its permanent replacement. The work involves timber ramps at each side, leading to a step-free … [more]

Plenty of car parking spaces, but cycle parking hidden away on side streets. The rubber tactile matting is in a state of decay.

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.

Commercial drivers have realised that there are no consequences from failing to comply with laws.

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.

'Give Way' lines leading from the footway onto the roadway of Maryhill Road.

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.

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]

The cycle signals at the Argyle Street crossing have been partly uncovered. The tactile paving on this side of the pedestrian crossing has been removed, as have the bollards.

The pedestrian crossings at Anderston Cross have been surrounded by hoardings, making sightlines rather poor.

The pedestrian crossings at Anderston Cross have been surrounded by hoardings, making sightlines poor. However, the lack of traffic coming from the Clydeside Expressway has made it easier to cross on red as there are more gaps in the … [more]

Painted bollards at Anderston Cross.

The Old Dumbarton Road cycle track is far from complete, and the raised crossings further along still haven't been started. This is on the COP26 diversion route.

The area underneath the M8 motorway at Anderston Cross is being painted a couple of months before the COP26 conference hits town. The Anderston Bridge, Stobcross Bridge, and various roads are proposed to be closed during the conference, and … [more]

A widened and protected cycle lane, compared to what was there previously, although still gaps in the protection at the pedestrian crossing.

The partly protected cycle lane in Provanmill Road is slightly wider than the advisory cycle lane it replaced. The pedestrian crossing is not working.

The end of the two-way pop-up cycle lane on Royston Road. It just ends.

Two-way pop-up cycle lane on Royston Road. Each build-out across the cycle lane on the hill has attracted accumulations of mud and other debris. Unlike the bus boarders, there was no indication of priority for pedestrians crossing the cycle … [more]

Two-way pop-up cycle lane on Royston Road. The previous with-flow lanes have been removed, the centre line repositioned, and one side of the road reallocated for the protected cycle lane.

The pedestrian crossings form part of the original Glasgow to Paisley cycle route, opened by Cllr Charlie Gordon back in 1993. This section is part of one of the many 'Cyclists Dismount' sections, and it remains so to this day. Nowadays, … [more]

The pedestrian crossing on the Newlands to Silverburn cycle route at Thornliebank Road is out of use. This is quite a busy road, and being next to a roundabout it is not terribly easy to cross the road unaided at this location.

It must be a cycle path if it has a barrier across it. Ah, but it leads to a pedestrian crossing, not a toucan crossing, and the path on the other side does not align with the crossing. I noticed while waiting that a number of vehicles … [more]

The shared footway on Aikenhead Road, at the junction with Polmadie Road. There is no off-road cycling option for journeys that do not continue along Aikenhead Road. All the crossings are for pedestrians only.

Pedestrian connection and crossing from Waterfoot Terrace to and across Brockburn Road, which could easily be improved to allow cycling, until such time as replacing the Barrhead Road/Peat Road roundabout comes about.

Light segregation installed on the Colleges Route cycle lanes in Clarence Drive. Again, a break in the armadillos for the pedestrian crossing, and a car illegally parked just before they resume.

Light segregation installed on the Colleges Route cycle lanes in Clarence Drive. The armadillos break for the pedestrian crossing. The first time I've seen the lane this clear in ages.

The pop-up cycle lane in Bilsland Drive at a pedestrian crossing. Maybe not ideal, but something that can be sorted later, should the facility become permanent.

A gap in the Great Western Road pop-up cycle lane.

Roadworks for the installation of the Great Western Road cycle lane. The crossing between Keal Avenue and Kearn Avenue is still no better for cycling across (see #100425).

A rather disjointed looking cycle connection between Springbank Street and Garscube Road at Queen's Cross, but a connection nonetheless. And cycle parking.

Unsurprisingly, people want to go to the crossing. More tyre tracks in Househill Park.

Kinfauns Drive outside the Drumchapel Shopping Centre and Health Centre. Bike parking both sides but access restricted by extensive use of guard railings. The Drumchapel Way crosses the road here and the signs can just be seen.

A pedestrian crossing across Great Western Road that could be upgraded to accommodate cycling between Kearn Avenue and Keal Avenue.

A pedestrian crossing across Great Western Road that could be upgraded to accommodate cycling between Keal Avenue and Kearn Avenue.

Behind me is a shared-use footway sign. Across the junction and to the right is an "End of Cycle Route" sign. Are they related? Is this shared-use footway nothing to do with the one a little distance along Govan Road at #99434? But still … [more]

The footway across the far side of the junction is shared use, but the crossing is for pedestrians only. But the previous shared-use sign was back at #99434. Is this one continuous route or two unrelated shared-use footways? The drainage … [more]

Although there are items of cycling paraphernalia back at Carnoustie Street and at Houston Street, this crossing is not a toucan crossing on the path in between the two locations. The space on the central reservation is somewhat … [more]

The path leads to the crossing across Cathcart Road and the cycle route continues across the far side of the crossing in Preston Street.

A kerb on the approach to the pedestrian crossing across Cathcart Road. The cycle route continues across the other side of the road.

Pollok's road network is not cycle friendly. Will the Peat Road roundabout replacement plans be modified to rectify this?

The green light is only for the pedestrian crossing. There is a toucan crossing across Wallace Street at the corner.

Turning off of Golspie Street onto the Langlands Road cycle track. Narrow crossing. Location: Govan, Glasgow (Scotland, United Kingdom)

An extremely narrow central traffic island at a pedestrian crossing in New Rutherglen Road.

A pedestrian crossing on New Rutherglen Road. With hindsight, I wonder whether the cycle route crossed the road at the Polmadie Road junction where there was a toucan crossing and not this crossing where the central island is tiny (see … [more]

A pedestrian crossing with countdown to green man phase at busy city centre corner

Pedestrian countdown to green man phase, starting from 35 secounds, at busy city centre pedestrian crossing (but see photo #53706)

Of course, it's always cyclists that run red lights! Not.

The stop line for the traffic signals is in the foreground, but there is a "Wait Here" marking on the pedestrian crossing. UPDATE: #62829 shows the "Wait Here" has been removed, and the reason why.

Pedestrianised section of John Street where cycling is permitted, but only southbound. Why not both ways? There are No Entry signs at the other end of this block.

Pedestrians must turn left along the road with no footway, and are banned from going straight on where there is a footway!
