11271Photo #11271Obstruction sticker placed onto a bike by the City Rangers, where a bike causes an obstruction of the footway.

(Were there adequate levels of cycle parking in Cambridge, one would hope such stickers might not then be needed, so that people didn't need to lean bikes against lamp-posts and the like.)

The Cycling Campaign has been arguing for the wide pavement on the right past the the crush point to be narrowed slightly and the space increased on road to provide a cycle lane.

This short stretch of one-way street has probably been forgotten by the planners, even the signs are worn out. Why can't this short stretch of Coronation Street be two-way for bicycles?
