| 163906 |  | The new one-way system in Hyndland now makes it difficult for cyclists to use the quiet streets to avoid the main roads. No exemptions have been made to permit two-way cycling. | General sign/notice: Problem signs |
| 163904 |  | The 'No Entry' signs at the Novar Drive Fire Path now have 'except cyclists' plates (instead of the correct 'except cycles' plates), but the 'No Through Road' signs are unchanged. | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs |
| 163902 |  | The Fire Path at Queensborough Gardens doesn't facilitate legal through cycle access. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 163900 |  | A van parked in the Clarence Drive cycle lane, another also on double yellow lines in the adjacent back lane. | Car storage: Problem carstorage |
| 163899 |  | A van parked on one side of Clarence Drive, and another visible ahead in the distance. | Car storage: Problem carstorage |
| 163898 |  | The southern entrance to Partick station is becoming a bit cluttered, and is being used for car parking, including over the path, which is also partially blocked by hire bikes. | Car storage: Problem carstorage |
| 163897 |  | The new cycle track along Old Dumbarton Road. In addition to the top surface (in the foreground) not being machine laid, the tactiles are incorrect Corduroy/Hazard type and not the Tramlines/Cycleway type. Being at the foot of a hill, these will sooner or later grab someone's tyre and throw them off their bike. It is not clear how the junction with the cycle track in Bunhouse Road (on the right) will be formed yet. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 163896 |  | The new cycle track on Old Dumbarton Road has expensive stone kerbs and divider strips, but the top surface has not been machine laid, so is lumpy and uneven. Disappointing. The cycle track replaces on-street metered parking. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 162371 |  | Traffic signals being installed on Lochburn Road at the canal bridge. Low-level cycle signals have been included for cyclists going along Lochburn Road. Toucan signals have been included for those walking and cycling under the bridge between the canal path accesses. Meanwhile, work continues on building the new bridge across the canal at Stockingfield Junction, connecting paths on each side, and due for completion summer 2022. | Roadworks: Infrastructure roadworks |
| 161063 |  | Ashfield Street bridge over former railway alignment, one of several bridges proposed for infilling by Highways England that now has responsibility for the former British Railways Board (Residual) portfolio of disused railway lines and associated structures. | Other: Infrastructure general |
| 156978 |  | The 'No Entry' ahead on Woodside Crescent could have 'except cycles' added to permit cycle access to the Charing Cross footbridge. Plenty of space. | General sign/notice: Problem signs |
| 156205 |  | Signage for the Springburn Quietway, but no dropped kerb to join the carriageway from the adjacent path. Not so easy to bump a kerb having come up a steep hill. A connection could be formed with Hawthorn Street here. | Route sign: Infrastructure routesigns |
| 156204 |  | A cycle parking stand outside Springburn library. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
| 156201 |  | Shallow steps on the path from Ashvale Crescent to Cowlairs Road, on its way to run alongside the Springburn Expressway. There is a steeper flight of steps at Ashvale Crescent, so the only way to get to here step-free is from Carleston Street. | Track: Problem track |
| 156198 |  | A 'Cyclists Dismount' sign on the path alongside the Springburn Expressway, at a point where all approaches have steps, except for the route to Carleston Street over the bridge. | Track: Infrastructure track |
| 156196 |  | A big flight of steps on the path from Hawthorn Street to Cowlairs Road, parallel to the Springburn Expressway. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 156195 |  | Pop-up cycle lane on Hawthorn Street. At each of the signal-controlled junctions, the inside lane reverts to motoring use. | Road environment: Event road |
| 156190 |  | Pop-up cycle lane on Hawthorn Street. Hatching has been removed from the centre of the road to make room for the cycle lanes. | Road environment: Event road |
| 156188 |  | Pop-up cycle lane on Hawthorn Street. This bus stop appears to have been forgotten for the bus boarder treatment. Hatching has been removed from the centre of the road to make room for the cycle lanes, which much improve safety for as long as they last. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 156187 |  | 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 side of the Give Way line for the side street. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 156185 |  | Pop-up cycle lane on Hawthorn Street. At this point, it is a door-zone painted cycle lane next to marked car parking bays. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 156184 |  | Pop-up cycle lane on Hawthorn Street. | Road environment: Event road |
| 156183 |  | Diversion signage for the Stockingfield canal path closure at the junction of Contin Place and Garrioch Road. The route goes via Shakespeare Street, which can be seen in the background, beyond the round building. | Route sign: Event routesigns |
| 156182 |  | Diversion signage for the Stockingfield canal path closure on Contin Place. | Route sign: Event routesigns |
| 156181 |  | Diversion signage for the Stockingfield canal path closure at Wyndford Drive. Still no dropped kerb for the path to Contin Place. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 156180 |  | Diversion signage for the Stockingfield canal path closure at Southmuir Place. | Route sign: Event routesigns |
| 156179 |  | Diversion signage for the Stockingfield canal path closure. The signs have been fixed quite low down the pole. | Route sign: Event routesigns |
| 155667 |  | Route signs and temporary diversion signs for the Stockingfield canal towpath closure. Lots of leaves are rotting away, awaiting being swept off the Kelvin Walkway. | Route sign: Event routesigns |
| 155666 |  | Signage relating to the Stockingfield Junction canal towpath closure for construction of a new bridge. | Route sign: Event routesigns |
| 155663 |  | The Forth & Clyde Canal towpath is now shut at Stockingfield Junction for construction of a new bridge. Signed diversions have been put in place. In the opposite direction, the closure is at Ruchill Street. On the opposite bank, the path from Campbell Street is shut on the canalside. | Temporary closure: Event closure |
| 155659 |  | A map showing the full diversion route for the Stockingfield canal towpath closure. Similar signs are located at the Kelvin Aqueduct and at Stockingfield Junction itself, possibly elsewhere too. The canal towpath is open up to Stockingfield Junction, but only to access the steps to Lochburn Road. Anyone wanting to avoid the steps has to leave the canal path here. | Temporary closure: Event closure |
| 155655 |  | Permanent route signs and temporary diversion signs relating to the Stockingfield canal path closure, but who would know? The temporary diversion signs should be yellow. The canal towpath is open up to Stockingfield Junction, but only to access the steps to Lochburn Road. Anyone wanting to avoid the steps has to leave the canal path here. | Route sign: Problem routesigns |
| 155653 |  | Cycle parking outside Maryhill Health Centre. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
| 155651 |  | Diversion signage for the Stockingfield canal path closure. The sign should be yellow. The diversion for city centre is rather lengthy from this direction, and those with local knowledge may be better going via Glenfinnan Road instead. The signed diversion for both destinations rejoins the canal via Burnhose Street. | Route sign: Infrastructure routesigns |
| 155650 |  | Car parking as usual in the cycle lane at the modal filter in Shakespeare Street. | Car storage: Problem carstorage |
| 155649 |  | Quality HGV parking in the cycle lane at Tesco! | Car storage: Problem carstorage |
| 155647 |  | I was surprised to see this Scottish Canals branded route sign after the turn for Shakespeare Street, but it turns out it is part of a signed diversion due to the Stockingfield canal path closure, so it should be yellow. The diversion approaches from the other side, so will be seen in time for the turn. | Route sign: Event routesigns |
| 155645 |  | Insecure cycle parking outside the shop at Kirklee crossroads. There is a step down at the end of the paving slabs. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 155644 |  | I think this is a "park in marked bays only" Controlled Parking Zone. Either way, the van is parked obstructing the cycle cut-through to Hyndland Street and the bollard isn't helping. | Car storage: Problem carstorage |
| 155643 |  | 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. | Car storage: Problem carstorage |
| 155642 |  | 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. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 155641 |  | Light segregation installed on the Colleges Route cycle lanes in Clarence Drive. A big improvement on #112288. Ahead are two parking bays, the first is located outside of the cycle lane, the second is kerbside and the cycle lane goes around it. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 155640 |  | Light segregation installed on the Colleges Route cycle lanes in Clarence Drive. The transition between road and bus boarder is rough. The parking bay up ahead has been located outside of the cycle lane. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 155639 |  | Light segregation being installed on the Colleges Route cycle lanes in Clarence Drive. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 154433 |  | The protected cycle lane on Victoria Bridge and the narrow painted lane it replaced. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 154432 |  | Armadillos protecting a wide cycle lane on Victoria Bridge. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 154431 |  | The tops have been sliced off some of the armadillos on Victoria Bridge. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 154430 |  | Dislodged armadillos sitting in the gutter along with the leaves. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 154429 |  | Intermittent armadillo protection for cycle lane on Gorbals Street and onto Victoria Bridge. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 154428 |  | Another short section of cycle lane in Gorbals Street, this time with armadillos. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 154427 |  | The painted cycle lane on Gorbals Street zig-zags around some parking bays before returning to the kerbside. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 154426 |  | Cycling on Gorbals Street. A two-way facility is due to be built as part of the South City Way, so this is temporary. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 154425 |  | I know this is temporary, but I think more effort could be made to tidy up this transition between the South City Way cycle track and the road at the north end of Pollokshaws Road. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 153715 |  | No action taken on the shockingly steep ramp at the bus boarder on the Balmore Road cycle track, and drainage still a problem too. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 153714 |  | No action taken on the shockingly steep ramp at the bus boarder on the Balmore Road cycle track. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 153308 |  | Finishing work still required at the southern end of the Garscube Road protected cycle lane. It will connecting into the underpass and other existing cycle infrastructure through Cowcaddens. | Roadworks: Event roadworks |
| 153307 |  | Progress on the Garscube Road cycle lane. | Roadworks: Event roadworks |
| 153306 |  | It may not be finished, but a dropped kerb at Panmure Gate would be nice. The path now leads to the Claypit Local Nature Reserve. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 153305 |  | Cycle parking, steps and a ramp at the new Panure Gate entrance to the Claypits Local Nature Reserve. The boardwalk leads along the side of the canal and connects to the new bridge at #153304. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
| 153304 |  | The new bridge across the canal at the Claypits Local Nature Reserve is now open. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways |
| 153117 |  | A couple of abandoned/damaged bikes at Partick station. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 152951 |  | Ban all non blue badge vehicles from the park again. Too many cars, making it unpleasant for the now increased numbers of walkers and cyclists. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 152695 |  | Three of four cars I saw in the woods at Cadder. | Car storage: Problem carstorage |
| 152694 |  | Refurbished bridge, seen previously in #87513. The area has been tidied up, although graffiti has returned. Unmade paths lead through the woods to Cadder. | Track: Good practice track |
| 152342 |  | A total lack of cycle facilities on Govan Road at the Pacific Drive junction. On the right is an approach lane for the Fastlink busway on Pacific Drive. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 152341 |  | The Govan Nextbike station has been closed due to persistent vandalism. SPT had been proposing allowing the facility to be relocated across the road to Govan Bus Station. www.spt.co.uk/documents/latest/rtp230617_agenda13.pdf | Bike share: Problem bikeshare |
| 152340 |  | The Govan Nextbike station has been closed due to persistent vandalism. SPT had been proposing allowing the facility to be relocated across the road to Govan Bus Station. www.spt.co.uk/documents/latest/rtp230617_agenda13.pdf | Bike share: Problem bikeshare |
| 152339 |  | The cycle route crosses Govan Road from Burleigh Street to Pearce Street. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 152338 |  | Protected contraflow cycle track next to marked loading bay on Burleigh Street. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways |
| 152337 |  | Incorrect signage and obstructive parking on the Burleigh Street contraflow cycle lane. Room for some cycle parking. | Car storage: Problem carstorage |
| 152336 |  | The Langlands Road cycleway joins the carriageway of Langlands Road. On the right is the start of the Fastlink bus lane to Govan Bus Station. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 152335 |  | The Langlands Road cycleway restarts as a designated strip of asphalt outside the shops. Despite the tyre marks on the kerb, there is no dropped kerb, and cycle access is from the narrow toucan crossing. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 152334 |  | The cycleway on Langlands Road has now been extended across Golspie Street. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 152280 |  | An abandoned section of street in Craigton at Barfillan Drive. This could be reworked into a cycle link connecting to the underpass through to Craigton Road and the Asda supermarket. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 152279 |  | A Fire Path on Carsaig Drive, with no provision for cycling through (cycle access through road closures being Glasgow City Council policy). | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 152278 |  | The path through Craigton, from Drymen Street to Barfillan Drive, interrupted by a Fire Path on Carsaig Drive. No dropped kerbs for crossing the road. This path provides access to the M8 underpass through to Craigton Road and the Asda supermarket. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 152277 |  | A Fire Path in Drymen Street, with no provision for cycling through (although just about physically possible with a standard bicycle). | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 152276 |  | The dropped kerbs either side of the road closure on Morven Street don't align. I noticed this too late and came straight off of the high kerb. See #152275. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 152275 |  | This looked like a good cycle exemption from a road closure, but the dropped kerbs on each side of the strip don't align. See #152276. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 152274 |  | Morven Street is a 'No Through Road except cycles' but has no access from the westbound side of Paisley Road West. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 152273 |  | Although it's hard to see in the photograph, a dip has formed in the speed table that makes it rather uneven for cycling across northbound, and potentially hazardous, so would be better getting fixed properly. | Pothole: Problem potholes |
| 152272 |  | The pop-up cycle lane on Dumbreck Road only goes as far as the M77 off-ramp, due to some motorists complaining to a councillor. The section from here to Mosspark Boulevard was removed. A permanent solution to the distribution of roadspace here needs to be found. | Cycleway: Event cycleways |
| 152270 |  | A pop-up two-way cycle lane has been provided on Dumbreck Road, between the Pollok Park entrance and the motorway junction, due to the inadequate shared footway. The bus stop has been closed, and not provided with a bus boarder. | Road environment: Event road |
| 152269 |  | Vegetation encroaching onto path near Gower Street, and evidence of people going across the grass instead. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 152268 |  | No dropped kerb at the end of MacLellan Street, at the path to Gower Street, although the kerb does get quite low nearer the fence. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 152267 |  | Ramp at the MacLellan Street side of footbridge, but there are steps at the Clifford Street side. | Track: Infrastructure track |
| 152266 |  | It's clear here what the transport priorities are when there are steps at one side of this footbridge. | Track: Problem track |
| 152265 |  | Once up the steps from Clifford Street, the rest of the motorway footbridge is step-free. | Track: Problem track |
| 152264 |  | Shallow steps leading to motorway footbridge at Clifford Street that could be replaced by a proper ramp. The same problem as the other access at #152263. | Track: Problem track |
| 152263 |  | Shallow steps leading to motorway footbridge at Clifford Street that could be replaced by a proper ramp. The same problem as the other access at #152264. | Track: Problem track |
| 152262 |  | The surface of Lymburn Street is rather bumpy, with poorly relaid cobbles. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 152261 |  | A slightly odd arrangement for accessing the cycle lane on Kelvin Way. | Road environment: Event road |
| 152260 |  | Kelvin Way looking south towards Radnor Street. Planters have been used to separate motor traffic going to the Kelvingrove Art Gallery car park from cycle traffic going both ways along Kelvin Way. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways |
| 152259 |  | Although most of Kelvin Way remains shut to motor traffic, the Kelvingrove Art Gallery car park access has reopened. Planters have been used to ensure drivers take the turn into the car park, while allowing cycle access on the other half of the road. The word 'STOP' continues to appear at traffic signal stop lines on cycle lanes. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways |
| 152053 |  | Scotrail please allow off peak trains to take tandems from Glasgow to Ardrossan Harbour, Gourock and Wymess Bay so disabled riders and their abled bodied partners are not distriminated against and can reach the islands. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 152052 |  | When the 153 bike and bag cars are added to the trains please can tandems be allowed to enable disabled people and their partners to reach the highlands. Unable to get to Fort Willam by train currently as Scotrail ban tandems and therefore disabled cyclists. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 152040 |  | Please can Scotrail change their anti Tandem policies and allow them on the Inter7City trains which LNER did with exactly the same trains. Discriminates against disabled riders who have to ride with a partner. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 151941 |  | Filtered permeability for pedestrians only in Dunard Street. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 151939 |  | The new bridge to the Claypits nature reserve nearing completion. | Roadworks: Event roadworks |
| 151938 |  | Filtered permeability for pedestrians only in Raglan Street. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
