BBC report: A cyclist has died following a road crash with an HGV in Glasgow city centre. Emergency services, including firefighters and several ambulance crews, were called to the scene at the Riverboat Casino on Broomielaw at about … [more]

Detectors have been installed in the Argyle Street footway at the crossing to Bunhouse Road, not just on the side that cyclists will be approaching from, but also on this side which is not part of any cycleway. The signals remain bagged, … [more]

Not much evidence of there being a COP26 diversion route around this corner.

No improvement at Argyle Street. However, the plastic barrier which had been pushed beyond the asphalt ramp has been restored to its intended position.

The Clyde Arc has been divided in two for COP26.

This scar will never heal!” - west flank opening, 1972 (from ‘The Glasgow Herald Book of Glasgow’) https://t.co/nARiXLdKUP

The first sign that the Benalder Street/Beith Street junction is going to be signalised, but no clues as to how the cycle track ending here will be tied into this. The dropped kerb and crossing studs have not deterred these selfish drivers … [more]

The pop-up cycle lane resumes, but only once the road happens to get wider. I bumped the kerb to allow the couple walking towards me to avoid walking single file. A decent permanent installation would not look like this.

The line narrowing the shared footway over the motorway bridge, and a scooter user approaching.

The shared footway over the motorway bridge has a solid line marking near the railing. Is this because the railing is too low for a shared use footway/cycleway to be there?

A couple of pop-up peak-hour bus lanes have been provided on the Springburn Road expressway. The shape of the start of the bus lane has already been altered.

A couple of pop-up peak-hour bus lanes have been provided on the Springburn Road expressway. Nothing has been done to improve the narrow shared-use footway.

A pop-up painted cycle lane has appeared on George V Bridge, wider than the narrow stepped lane to its left, but still inside of a left turn motor vehicle lane, so probably best to continue moving out if not turning left.

The protected cycle lane in Royston Road appears to direct cyclists into the kerb without warning. Further along it became apparent that installation work was still on-going.

A protected cycle lane has appeared on Royston Road, but further along it became apparent that work had not been completed.

The pop-up bus lane on Braidcraft Road ends here, on the approach to the Peat Road roundabout. The roundabout remains a major obstacle to cycling. For some journeys, the roads around the sides of the roundabout may provide an alternative, … [more]

Pop-up cycle lane on Hawthorn Street. At each of the signal-controlled junctions, the inside lane reverts to motoring use.

Pop-up cycle lane on Hawthorn Street. Hatching has been removed from the centre of the road to make room for the cycle lanes.

Pop-up cycle lane on Hawthorn Street.

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.

A slightly odd arrangement for accessing the cycle lane on Kelvin Way.

The end of the pop-up cycle lane in Bilsland Drive. Traffic immediately takes to the inside of the road, to form two lanes of traffic approaching the Balmore Road junction. The guy on the bike didn't get through the next phase on the … [more]

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.

No eastbound pop-up cycle lane on this part of Bilsland Drive, and a van parked in the westbound lane, despite the armadillos.

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.

Bus boarders have now been installed on the Great Western Road pop-up cycle lane, and await markings. The transition is a bit rough, but not as bad as the step for bus passengers at the raised kerb.

Bus boarders have now been installed on the Great Western Road pop-up cycle lane, and await markings.

The new bus gate on George Square necessitates a bus gate on South Frederick Street too.

A pop-up bus gate in George Square south, with car parking removed. George Square east and west are closed to all vehicular traffic.

Road narrowing and off-side bus lane, approaching the new bus gate at George Square.

Car parking removed in Cochrane Street for an off-side bus lane, associated with the new bus gate in George Square.

Off-side bus lane in Montrose Street, associated with the new George Square bus gate. There was a proposal from the council to create a contraflow cycle lane here by creating a shared-use footway outside the registry office, but was … [more]

The pop-up contraflow cycle lane in Gordon Street, outside Central Station. The temporary 'One Way' signs are incorrect.

@GetGlesgaMoving @GlasgowCC @GoBikeGlasgow @policescotland Hope McDonald's being charged lane rental??! @CBTransport Where is alternative bus stop situated?? If there's room for a dedicated lane for Macdonald's drive thru, there's room for … [more]

The recommencement of the popup cycle lane at Lancefield Quay, where the parallel NCN75 riverside cycle path is shut due to a building fire.

The end of the Fastlink busway on Anderston Quay, and in the distance, the recommencement of the popup cycle lane. The traffic signals detected my approach, and are quick to change.

Cycling legally on the Fastlink busway at last! (But only in this direction.)

Caught out by the road markings, or a change of mind when the traffic signals changed? The sign reads "Cyclists use Fastlink Carriageway", and a tiny "& cycle symbol" added amidst the "Bus Only" wording.

I guess the road markings are to remind bus drivers turning onto the Fastlink busway to look out for cyclists, but they appear to suggest to cyclists to go straight on, when the yellow sign says to use the busway.

The popup cycle lane recommences in Broomielaw, after George V Bridge, while NCN75 U-turns down a ramp onto the riverside path. The footway along this section ahead is no longer shared-use, but still sees people cycling along it, even with … [more]

The popup cycle lane continues onto Broomielaw, passing under the Central Station bridge.

The recommencement of the popup cycle lane in Clyde Street, after Victoria Bridge.

A traffic lane removed on Clyde Street and turned into a popup cycle lane.

Start of temporary cycle lane on Clyde Street. People joining from either the carriageway through the cones, or from the ramp from the shared footway.

Pedal on Parliament (Glasgow) on High Street.

The finishing touches remain to be done at the new path into the Clay Pit local nature reserve.

Due to the cycle path collapse at Adelphi Street, the cycle route is diverted through the car park.

Part of the NCN75 diversion due to the Smartbridge contruction work

One of the measures done in Glasgow for the cycle racing. Railings removed and ramp down from kerb formed at exit from Kelvingrove Park. http://instagram.com/p/a6KcyiqBpl/ shows it in use.
