Grand Arcade cycle park - with the gated valet parking area in the background.

Grand Arcade cycle park, with lots of signs to absolve liability.

Grand Arcade cycle park - valet parking area.

Cycle parking outside student accommodation. Ideally this would be covered, but it does serve as an excellent demonstration that simple, secure parking like this will get used and is considered more than adequate by most people. This ... [more]

Turning right from Lensfield Road.

Lack of cycle parking in Bateman Street - hundreds of cycles parked insecurely.

Vehicles K501NCR and T989LHK illegally and inconsiderately parked on the Bateman Street contraflow cycle lane.

Entrance to the Carter Cycle Bridge near Cambridge station.

A rare case of a cyclist actually using the poorly-aligned 'up' entry point. It would be better to remove the bollarded area and just have a simple, uncluttered entry point.

Is it really not possible to get an exit point here?

Area behind the station cycle bridge which could be used when the bridge is joined up with the station better.

No obvious cycle parking at the Ravensworth Gardens development.

Ravensworth Gardens, a new housing near Cambridge station. This photo shows an excellent example of filtered permeability: accessibility for walkers and cyclists but not cars.

The Triangle Site, a new development in Cambridge.

Underground cycle parking in a locked room in a new development.

Cycle parking in a car park in a new development. Very heavily used and nicely secure. Not as accessible as on-street parking would be though, but as accessible as a car.

Instructions for the use of (cage-based) cycle parking!

Adding a bike to cage-based cycle parking. Two levers prevent the bike falling out when lowering it down.

Getting a bike into a cage rack requires a bit of effort!

Plenty of space in a cage for storage of cycle trailers.

Rustat Avenue development.

Very poorly installed visitor cycle parking - note how close they are together. Despite this, they are used by visitors and seemingly residents also.

At the back are where abandoned cycles are stored, so that more space is made for actively-used bicycles.

Paid-for cycle parking at Cambridge Station, see #35843. (However, it would be better to remove these and make more space for standard Sheffield Stands.)

Shared-use track from Addenbrookes to Long Road (there's a toucan crossing immediately to the right).

Shared-use track continuing from Addenbrookes to Long Road.

The cycle trail is to the right - but pedestrians heading for the Addenbrookes staff car park naturally prefer to go this way.

Start of shared-use track through the Addenbrookes site.

New multi-storey car-park at Addenbrookes now open, and the mini-roundabout has been replaced - road markings and a speed ramp appeared the next day.
