Torridon Avenue closed to motor traffic at its junction with Dumbreck Road, with cycles exempted and gaps provided.
The cycle filter at the end of Dargarvel Avenue has a signal since the junction of Dumbreck Road and Dumbreck Avenue is signalised. However, the gaps are not best aligned for movements straight across the junction.
The start of the protected section of cycle lane on Cumbernauld Road. However, the motorists have decided to park in the bus layby instead.
The cycle lanes on Wallacewell Road are now equipped with armadillos right along the length of the road. The traffic islands appear to be marked up for adjustments to make the cycle lane wider past the islands.
An advance green has been provided for cycling into the protected cycle route straight ahead on Cambridge Street.
Filtered permeability between Milnpark Gardens and Milnpark Street at Sussex Street, rectifying the main problem in #99410.
The Howard Street contraflow cycle lane with orca protection. The traffic island here has been made less obstructive too.
The Howard Street contraflow cycle lane now has protection from orcas. So taxi driver parks on footway at a pedestrian crossing point instead.
Oswald Street bus gate, helping to filter city centre traffic. But taxi driver stops forward even of the Advance Stop Line.
The road closure in Avenuepark Street now has an opening to allow through cycling, correcting issue in #62876.
The traffic signals at Lochburn Road are now operational, and the low-level cycle signals give a head-start of a few seconds before the main signals change.
Hooray, the filtered access on Scotland St West at Lambhill St, G41, has been installed! Thank you @GlasgowCC 👏👏👏
A dropped kerb in the diagonal road closure on Reidvale Street and Sword Street. Not signed for cycling, but unlikely to cause a problem. Interestingly, the dropped kerb on the far side appears to be newer than on this side.
Fern Lane is well surfaced (for a back lane) and has a single bollard to prevent through motor traffic, making it a useful alternative to the busy Crow Road..
Glasgow's first Advance Green cycle light, allowing right turns into Bridge Street for a few seconds before motor traffic gets the green light to do likewise.
Traffic calming by width restrictions that force motorists to slow right down when leaving Edinburgh Road, and prevent wider vehicles using the local roads as a rat-run.
A dropped kerb to access the St Andrew's Suspension Bridge from McNeil Street has now been installed.
Newly installed dropped kerbs for cycling through to Galloway St, although this couple headed for the footway to avoid the reversing car in the turning head.
New infra heading southbound on the A77 - ends at a toucan. Better with at least! @S4CGlasgow @carsickglasgow https://t.co/jVJaP0NsfE
Beautiful new filtered permeability on one of the streets I use as a shortcut - big improvement! @S4CGlasgow https://t.co/ChvFGNH15J
Newly installed dropped kerb at Langside Road creating quieter alternative to Victoria Road #quietway #glasgowcycling http://t.co/qvfQphWvZa
The Cathedral Street Bridge has reopened after strengthening, and continues to be bus, taxi and cycles only.
Another commute picture; Kelvingrove Park looking towards Glasgow University. http://t.co/HpXsYox7gq
A dropped kerb has now been installed in McIntyre Street, at end of path linking from Clydeside Expressway
Pedestrian countdown to green man phase, starting from 35 secounds, at busy city centre pedestrian crossing (but see photo #53706)
The end of a street neighbouring the Langlands Cycle Path, with dropped kerb for access, but beware of the gully installed with its bars parallel to the direction of travel, which may catch skinny tyres.
Contraflow cycle lane on one-way section of West Nile Street. This allows cyclists direct access from the north side of city centre through to Argyle Street, on a road parallel to the busy Renfield Street.
Cycle track across footway linking Pollokshaws road (which at this point is one-way with a contraflow bus lane) and Surrey Street. This is normally a useful link to avoid the traffic on Gorbals Street, but Stirlingfauld Place is currently s ... [more]
Newly installed dropped kerb at Gadie Street, opposite Alexandra Park. The dropped kerbs on the Provan Road crossing have also been renewed and are lower than before.
End of King Street contraflow cycle lane. The traffic signals are automatic (not detector-activated) and change at the same time as the opposite side of the crossroads. Previous junction at #35689
King Street contraflow cycle lane. Although there is no separation street between cycle lane and car parking, the marked layby is at least wider than the cars that park in it.
