Where the bikes displaced from the pavement outside St Catharine's College have ended up - insecurely across the road. More on-street cycle parking needed instead of pay and display.

On "drop-off Sunday" (beginning of term) Kings Parade was reduced to one lane by parents delivering their offspring and belongings to Corpus Christi College. To give way to oncoming traffic the taxi KX56 HHV (license 158, see also #19068 an ... [more]

The removal of the car parking here and replacement by on-street cycle parking has been one of the best initiatives in cycle parking for years. Yet there is still insufficient space, with the racks packed full. More car spaces (which are ro ... [more]

Cycle parking outside St Catharine's College - some of the best in the city. Installed on-road (taking up spaces previously used by cars rather than at the expense of walkers).
10 metres
What happens when there's not enough cycle parking: people park several spaces abreast, and bikes fall over. In this case, this is done to excess. And so bikes end up in the path of passing vehicles, with wheels being flattened.
10 metres
About 12 bikes stuffed into 4 stands, taking up less space than the car using the Pay & Display bay next to it. It's time more cycle parking were provided here, at the expense of car parking (cars now have an expensive new car park round th ... [more]

I sense a distinct lack of cycle parking outside Corpus Christi College, Trumpington Street. Bikes are having to use this funky raised platform-thing as well as the pavement.
18 metres
Shortage of cycle parking on Trumpington Street (King's Parade end). Two of the four car parking spaces by Ben Hayward should be changed to cycle parking, as has worked so effectively further up outside St Catharine's College.

Fellow's Cycle Parking at Corpus Christi College - apologies for poor photo quality it was taken after a pub visit on the occasion of Mark Clarke's job interview at Corpus - for the advanced photo copying job. cycle parking

An apparently quite famous bike, suspended from the ceiling in the sandwich shop on King's Parade.
23 metres
This new sign outside St Catherine's College seems to have had some effect in clearing the pavement, with the result that the cycle parking next to it is even more heavily stuffed with bikes. The sign presumably has no legal effect - as ... [more]

The photo doesn't show it very well but these cycles are parked on the carriageway (entirely legally) beyond the 'official' cycle parking area.

Sign on the back of bus suggesting don't overtake on the inside. This sticker campaign was the result of ThinkCycling partnership working. It didn't last long as many of the buses were soon relocated outside Cambridge. thinkcycling

Silver Street is much more pleasant to walk and cycle along, following the Core Stage 3 partial closure. Isn't it about time full closure and a better streetscape were considered?
36 metres
Excellent new cycle parking at the end of King's Parade, already heavily in use
39 metres
30mph sign, aka "Increase speed now!" in this city centre area used heavily by walkers and cyclists. The County Council's 20mph zone is a complicated mess, resulting in excess signage, and should be standardised to being the inner ring road ... [more]

Plenty of space here for cycle parking, which avoid blockages of the pavement by bikes leaning against poles.
63 metres
Despite two No Cycle Parking signs here (and more around the courtyard) there is just nowhere else to go. Cambridge University needs to get serious about facilities for cycle commuting.
68 metres
If Cambridge University was serious about sustainable travel much of this courtyard at 17 Mill Lane would be used for cycle parking. As it is there are bikes all around the neighbourhood unsecured to any fixed object.
80 metres
Cycle parking needed here. Bikes are parked insecurely against walls, and there is space next to, or in place of, the car parking.
86 metres
No right turn from Trumpington Street into Bene't Street. It's possible this sign should have an "except cycles" plate now that two-way cycling is allowed in Bene't Street. Also a temporary "priority to other direction" sign for the Libra ... [more]
86 metres
This warning notice hasn't had much effect, as there's a huge demand for cycle parking and of course priority in the courtyard is alas given to cars - see following two photos.
86 metres
Bikes going in all directions at this busy junction. Note the excellent 'pedal-ready' position of the lead two cyclists in the queue.
86 metres
'Cyclists Please Dismount' sign at closure due to collapsed sewer. In fact there are dropped kerbs at both ends on the south side so cyclists do ride through when the coast is clear.
87 metres
The roadworks here force all motor traffic onto the oncoming cycle lane, with no traffic control to protect them.
88 metres
No traffic control in place to protect cyclists from all the motor traffic forced into the contra-flow cycle lane here in Pembroke Street.
88 metres
A narrow lane for cyclists has now been created by the sewer repairs on Pembroke Street.
89 metres
The priority at this junction should be reversed so that the priority is Mill Lane / Pembroke Street, a heavily used cycle route.
91 metres
Old-fashioned contra-flow cycle lane sign on Pembroke street. It currently seems to be facing sideways.
92 metres
Private hire vehicle CU05 MWM with windscreen plate number 409, parked (engine off) in contraflow cycle lane. Took this picture, then went over to his window. Me: "Are you aware that you're illegally parked?" Him: "Mate, mate: move on." ... [more]

Pembroke St closed due to a collapsed sewer - they really do seem to be trying to keep cyclists out too.
93 metres
The view into King's Lane. There is some deteriorating wording on the posts that reads No Motor Cycling.
94 metres
This is the line at the end of the Pembroke Street contraflow: it looks like a 'stop line'. It probably was painted with the intention of *being* a stop line; it is true to state that, unless it's two-thirty in the morning, one cannot do an ... [more]

This so-called "professional" driver, in this taxi, is driving illegally on both the contraflow cycle lane and the pavement, selfishly trying to get past the queue. Unfortunately the picture is too blurry to capture the number plate, but it ... [more]
95 metres
Cycles propped against the wall of Pembroke College. This isn't secure, and the pavement is narrower than the idea.
95 metres
Strange that no-one uses the wheel-bender slots - time for Queens' College to install Sheffield stands?
96 metres
Van, from Hilary's Wholesale Cambridge, illegally and dangerously obstructing the contraflow cycle lane, choosing to deliver to the Pembroke College kitchens by stopping directly outside, rather than stopping in an adjacent side-road or usi ... [more]
97 metres
Cambridge Cycling Campaign's stall bike at Queens' College where these platform wheelbenders make for quaint but inadequate cycle parking.

The Christmas shopping rush, I mean crawl, must have started - not too much of a hold-up for cyclists, thankfully, but do take care!
99 metres
This van, of Essex Lift Services, drove illegally from Tennis Court Road and ignored the clear signage, turning right and driving contraflow in the cycle lane. See also previous picture, #17253.

Alliance van unloading illegally in the cycle lane in Pembroke Street. See also photos #23899 and #23900
106 metres
Pembroke St contraflow cycle lane blocked by a BT van - a particularly bad location, right by the junction.
108 metres
Unofficial cycle parking against railings on the pavement, a type of 'provision' seemingly quite common in Cambridge. Proper racks could be provided on-road.
