Thank you to everyone who's made this happen. They're looking beautiful. We love it. I hope we can do more around Sheffield to make streets for walking and cycling @olivercoppard @min_esh @RuthMilsom https://t.co/MGbozM8kTq
BBC news website: NHS worker scared of cycling around Sheffield A nurse from Sheffield says she is terrified that she is going to be knocked down by a car when she cycles to work. Ann Gregory uses a helmet camera to document the nu ... [more]
Did anyone seriously think that drivers would block the straight-ahead lane rather than pulling forward into the ASL?
Come with me on the deeply unpleasant experience that is #cycling to the hairdressers on Ecclesall Road #Sheffield S11 https://twitter.com/cyclinginaskirt/status/1383433783005769736?s=21
“If I’d continued to go straight on, I would have gone under the wheels of this lorry” – possibly the most frightening near miss we’ve seen (and the cyclist is a senior police officer committed to making the roads safer) https:/ ... [more]
One side of the double bridge on Shude Hill has been closed off to motor vehicles and is available for cycling. The roadway through the other arch is one-way.
A 20mph zone and shared footway at West Bar. I maybe should have taken the photo a little way back to show better how the dropped kerb is the wrong side of the 'give way' line at the West Bar roundabout, which could cause problems for a ... [more]
End of the long-term roadworks (see #112483), a cycle lane up Corporation Street, and more redevelopment work imminent.
Cycle access to and across Shalesmoor at the end of Bowling Green Street, although the toucan crossing is staggered.
A point to leave the A61 Shalesmoor dual carriageway and turn right using the toucan crossing, or turn left to access Bowling Green Street (at #112466).
An overrun area for U-turning vehicles on new Derek Dooley Way gyratory layout, but judging from the tyre marks on the footway, even this is insufficient.
Cycle markings through the junction onto Derek Dooley Way, where almost all traffic, in both lanes, turns right.
A narrow island forming part of a staggered toucan crossing. This isn't going to work well if more than one person tries to use it at the same time in opposite directions.
Painted cycle lane on Wicker, and off-side bus lane leading to a bus gate at the Derek Dooley Way junction.
A toucan crossing across Wicker, and a point to leave the carriageway to either use the crossing or join the path to the riverside. I'm uncertain what the role of the bollard is.
The lack of a proper dropped kerb at the end of the Cobweb Bridge at #112458 encourages cyclists to use the footway in Sussex Street.
A shared-use footway on Broad Street West, which has been made one-way, so making it possible to continue using it both ways by bike.
Instead of improving this cycle lane, @SheffCouncil are going to remove it to make way for two way traffic. http://t.co/m70h8VltLX
We've worked hard to make this really safe & obvious. Can't understand why drivers keep going into the cycle lane http://t.co/aDMHuifldy
A substandard shared use (for the timid) and a substandard cycle lane (for the confident). Neither is good enough. http://t.co/wNGihrZKMY
The road narrowing here is being used as a car park and the cycle lane through that is obviously not working. Lessons to learn here!
We've heard recently Danny Dorling describe this sort of thing as 'the open sewers of the 21st century'. Certainly the chevrons on the roundabout make it look rather more like a race-track than it needs to be.
The road environment is rather busy here, which is why there is a Sustrans Connect2 project to build a connecting route to the National Cycle Network from the tram stop.
