Uncovered Cycle Parking

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!

Dropped kerbs have now been installed to assist with cycling around the gate at Speir's Wharf, addressing the issue in #170157.

According to the sign, cyclists are to give way to pedestrians on the steps and narrow, steeply graded path down to the Kelvin Walkway.

The correct sign, No Through Road except cycles, but partially obscured by stickers.

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 resurfacing of the path from the Forth & Clyde Canal to Netherton Road, down the side of the David Lloyd Club only lasts a few metres, but it at least eliminates the step between the existing asphalt and the rest of the path.

One thing that is quite disappointing on the Garscube Rd project is the minor junction design, what is going on with these bell mouths, no sharp kerb / ramp up from either direction - really promotes fast driving without taking due care. … [more]

Details of the steps down from the Stockingfield Bridge. There is a wheeling ramp (with the usual problems they entail), but once the bridge is properly open, using the main ramp will be far more attractive for those cycling. See also … [more]

Stepped access from the Stockingfield Bridge down to the canalside path towards Gilshochill. See also #186428.

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.

The main arc of the new Stockingfield Junction bridge appears to be unofficially open.

Panorma of Charing Cross from a footbridge in Glasgow.

There's a sort of route between the bridge on the left and the path on the right here on Renfrew Street. The area is known as Charing Cross. The bridge has three small steps at the far end, so it is not a cycle route.

The lanes between the main roads are really just service roads for the buildings with lots of blockages.

Cycle parking and a road connecting from the new university campus extension towards the South Front.

The zig-zag ramp and steps up from Kelvingrove into the new university campus extension are now open.

No surface improvement to the canal towpath at Firhill Road. The improvement stops at the Ruchill Street bridge.

What looks like a new type of cycle counter on Garscube Road. I didn't wait to find out.

A surface dressing has been applied to the now closed to motor traffic George Square East, outside the City Chambers.

Technically it is pointing the right way, but surprising to see a sign for the Wiltshire Cycleway in Glasgow!

Still no replacement bollards at the western end of the Kelvingrove Art Gallery grounds.

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.

Cycle parking outside building in Elderslie Street.

Shared use footway on Dover Street, part of an LTN.

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.

An astonishingly long-lasting piece of Strathclyde Regional Council artwork remaining at the Clyde Tunnel entrance.

Part-time bus lane in Sauchiehall Street.

The 20mph outside the school ends and reverts to 30mph half way along the school building.

Anyone not turning left must leave the protected cycle lane and use the anonymous advance stop line.

Cycle parking in Woodlands Drive, with an abandoned frame.

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]

Spaces for People bike lane on northern side of London Rd. Locals drive cars over pavement to park between trees on left (near Birnam Rd).

Entrance to Auchenshuggle Woods, off London Rd. Gate with sprung hinges onto gravel path. Locals who cycle often use southern pavement of London Rd to get to Auchenshuggle (despite Spaces for People lanes on road).

North Canal Bank Street back open to traffic, and there's plenty of it. The tactile paving on the cycle track is still incorrect.

Temporary barriers have returned to close off the Kelvingrove Art Gallery pedestrian and cycle access from use by drivers.

A driver reversing and turning, having seen the previous driver head down towards Argyle Street to find the way now blocked. See also #183413.

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]

The big cycle traffic signals have been replaced by little ones.

Nextbike cycle hire station on Clifton Street, and one hire bike in use exiting Kelvingrove Park.

"Cycle Thieves We Are Watching You" notice, but non-standard stands installed too close to a wall is what's on offer here.

Another view of the 'Give Way' line in #182981. Note the pedestrian using the diagonal cycle crossing.

A cluttered approach to this 'Give Way' line. See also #182982.

A detector has now been installed at the Maryhill Road crossing on North Woodside Road.

The Advance Stop Line at Hopehill Road had been installed in such an advanced position, it was beyond the traffic signal!

While the two crossings on Maryhill Road are pedestrian crossings, the crossing on the Hopehill Road side of the junction is a toucan crossing.

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

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.
