The White Cart path at Pollokshaws Road. Although there is a dropped kerb at this side, there is no such convenience provided on the central reservation. See also #194884.
On the left, the Brock Burn path up to Kennishead Road, and ahead the disused underpass beneath the road. The way beyond is effectively blocked to all but the most adventurous of explorers.
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]
Looking the opposite way from #194236, this shows the narrow ramp behind the wall to get around the steps to the right.
Entrance to Greenbank Park straight ahead, and path to the Nether Auldhouse Road crossing to the left.
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.
A connection from the South City Way cycleway over to the site to the east, replacing the lane seen in #93385.
Approaching the junction with Haggs Road, at the end of the SWCW cycleway. The signals are now fully operational, but the cycle signal is not so easy to spot!
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 view from the northern end of the Sighthill Bridge, looking along the paths to Port Dundas Basin.
Heading west from the Sighthill Bridge, along the paths to Port Dundas Basin. The path diverging to the left is step-free to the canalside.
The connection from Sighthill Circus to the Sighthill Bridge features steps and a double hairpin ramp.
The path from Port Dundas Basin approaching Pinkston Road. The only dropped kerbs are at the crossing at the pedestrian refuge.
The path from Pinkston Road approaching Port Dundas Basin. The path to the right is the step-free route to the canal.
The path from Port Dundas Basin leads around the corner of the basin and heads over to Pinkston Road. There is another step-free route (out of shot to the right) which leads to the Sighthill Bridge.
The Provan Hall Trail at the far end of Blairtummock Park. From here the trail is signed along Easterhouse Road to Easterhouse Railway Station. The path ends at the motorway sliproad junction. The road ahead, Rogerfield Road, looks even … [more]
The Provan Hall Trail in Blairtummock Park. Once out of the park the trail appears to be signed along a variety of roads to get to Provan Hall.
The Old Dumbarton Road cycleway appears to be nearing completion at long last, and is getting used. Lining still to be done on this section.
The Old Dumbarton Road cycleway appears to be nearing completion at long last. But still not clear how it integrates with anything else.
The path around the side of the Sighthill redevelopment approaching Pinkston Road. I believe this path will form parts of the cycle routes from Cumbernauld and Springburn to the city centre.
The main path around the side of the Sighthill redevelopment. I believe this is to become part of the cycle routes from Cumbernauld and Springburn to the city centre.
The end of the Sighthill Avenue cycleway approaching Springburn Road. Don't be tempted to go through the archway, since there is a step on the other side!
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.
The path towards Gilshochill suddenly gets narrow. Narrow enough that for people to pass, one has to stand aside off the path.
The ramp up to the Forth & Clyde Canal towpath from Lochburn Road has been made wider and resurfaced.
No surface improvement to the canal towpath at Firhill Road. The improvement stops at the Ruchill Street bridge.
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.
The cobbles under the Ruchill Street bridge have been replaced by asphalt, removing one hazard at this very narrow section of path built in modern times. See #92011 for previous surface.
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]
Temporary barriers have returned to close off the Kelvingrove Art Gallery pedestrian and cycle access from use by drivers.
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]
People walking and cycling on Kelvin Way, with motoring signage still on display two years after the closure to driving.
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 finished replacement crossing on North Woodside Road at Maryhill Road. Note the Ahead Only sign on the traffic signal.
A zebra crossing on the Bunhouse Road cycleway. This one has tactile paving for pedestrians on one side only.
The Drumchapel Way meets the new Garscadden Burn flood prevention construction work, at the foot of the ramped steps from Belsyde Avenue.
A new path to Southdeen Avenue, but the connection to Glenkirk Drive behind the camera is via a flight of steps. The Drumchapel Way crosses from right to left.
A new playpark, picnic benches, and a section of unfinished path heading towards Southdeen Avenue. The path from Kinfauns Drive crosses and connects to the original route of the Drumchapel Way to the left.
A couple of new paths have appeared following the Scottish Water works. The path to the right joins Southdeen Avenue, while the path to the left joins the original waymarked route of the Drumchapel Way. Despite waymarker posts at Kinfauns … [more]
The end of the Ferry Road cycleway, with a Give Way back onto the carriageway. This road is a dead end for motorists, but leads to the National Cycle Network.
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]
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.
The end of the new two-way cycleway on Hamilton Road and transition to one-way with-flow protected cycle lanes beyond the junction.
After a gap of a couple of miles, a permanent cycleway starts on London Road at the London Drive junction. It continues through the Mount Vernon junction onto Hamilton Road. Cycle lights allow cyclists across from the eastbound carriageway … [more]
No further progress on reinstating the road markings at the newly rebuilt Old Dumbarton Road/Ferry Road/Benalder Street junction. All of the pedestrians visible are walking on the cycle track and not the narrow footway.
The SEC covered walkway itself appeared to be open for business, although whether it was possible to get out the other end I don't know, having diverted around the gyratory system due to the sight at #175151.
The former NCN7 route at Pointhouse Road and the footbridge with steps over the Clydeside Expressway still form useful parts of the cycle network to differing degrees.
The Benalder Street cycleway has now been connected to the Old Dumbarton Road cycleway, with the installation of the raised crossing. The old lamppost seen in #174295 has been removed.
The Old Dumbarton Road cycleway has now been cleared of obstructions at the Ferry Road junction. The raised crossing has been installed and awaits lining. Some bollards might be in order too.
The entrance to the cycle path at Greenlaw Road has been receiving some attention. However, the two plastic bollards that control access have gone missing.
Work on the path through Yorkhill Park appears to be incomplete. While work on the wall appears to have been completed to a high standard, the path is missing its top surface, and the lighting columns have been placed within the width of … [more]
