Gates found in various locations in Petersfield and Romsey. These closure points are an extremely effective way of making the area very permeable and accessible for cyclists and walkers but stopping rat-running by vehicles.
A central bollard rather than gates would however be preferable as that would avoid people having to wait as sometimes happens when two cyclists approach at once from opposite directions.
See also #12504 for the same location but without the cyclist in the picture.

Campaigning: Signing our petition to support two-way cycling in Kingston Street and other nearby streets.
11 metres
Illegal parking on Kingston Street is rife. The street itself is perfectly wide for two-way cycling.
12 metres
The "No Entry" signs at the far end of the street have been replaced, permitting cycling, but three "One-Way" street signs have been left behind - creating ambiguity.

"Beware oncoming cyclists" sign in Kingston Street. Hopefully this (currently needed) signage will soon be able to be removed as people become more used to the principle of two-way cycling in one-way streets, totally common on the continent ... [more]

There appear to have been no changes made to the road markings or layout at this end of Kingston Street in light of the change to permit two-way cycling. The one-way street signs that remain here are in conflict with the no-motor vehicle si ... [more]

One way is just so passé! A local cyclist signs our petition to support two-way cycling in Kingston Street and other local streets.

Cycle parking needed here - perhaps shift the car parking on Hooper Street up by one?

Barriers temporarily opened here during the Mill Road Winter Fair. For the rest of the year, whilst a barrier is needed to stop through-traffic, this photo shows how much easier cycling through here would be if the gate were replaced wit ... [more]

Bikes parked in Sturton Street, but the drainpipe has a funny sign, detailed in #35149.

Only in Cambridge? A gold coloured frame politely states the case for the privacy of this drainpipe. For more context see #35148. 66 on y' bike A message to our kind, thoughtful and considerate customers. Please do not under any ci ... [more]

Another example of selfish parking on Kingston Street. The pavement is totally blocked, forcing a mother to push her child down the middle of the road.

Emergency access gate and cycle cut-through—forming a very effective solution to rat-running, Hooper Street.
31 metres
Bikes absolutely everywhere near the Kingston Arms on Kingston Street, due to lack of cycle parking (there are zero stands) here.
54 metres
Cycle parking needed in this area, near the Backstreet Bistro in Petersfield. Cycle parking could go at the end of the car parking row, on street.

Bikes occupying the space outside the Kingston Arms that could usefully be provided for cycle parking.

All the petersfield pubs could do with more places to lock your bike up... Blue, Dev, Kingston, Dobblers, Geldart.

Cycles left insecurely against a new building in Kingston Street. It has to be asked why cycle parking is not present.
107 metres
Horrible underpass under the Newmarket Road gyratory. Needs to be replaced with an at-grade traffic light -controlled junction.
118 metres
Plenty of space is available for safe contraflow cycling in Kingston Street.
119 metres
The appearance of railings in Kingston Street immediately results in piles of bikes being attached because of the shortage of cycle parking (there are zero stands) here.
123 metres
Kingston Street, with several vehicles parked illegally on yellow lines, half-way across the pavement.
129 metres
Its not uncommon to find people walking along the middle of the road in these streets, where parked vehicles, bins and street furntiure heed progress on the pavement.
132 metres
Ainsworth Street. Despite being very narrow due to parked cars, two-way traffic is permitted and creates little difficulty for cyclists. Compare with Kingston Street, which is wider but where two-way cycling is not permitted.
134 metres
The result of the lack of cycle parking: pavements blocked. This was taken early-evening outside the Kingston Arms, on Kingston Street, where there is zero cycle parking. No wonder theft rates are so high.
136 metres
Why no cycle parking at this new development? Space on the right is available.
142 metres
On Kingston Street pedestrians are forced in to the road by a combination of inconsiderate parking and wheelie bins.
145 metres
Near the Cambridge Blue pub. Some signposts (council-owned) now have signs up threatening to remove bicycles left against them, reducing the number of safe places to leave bikes.
152 metres
Why not have residential cycle parking instead of bollards either side of the crossing here? There is a hairdresser opposite which would also benefit.
153 metres
It's clear that moving the central reservation across by 1.5m would create space for a much-needed cycle lane on Hills Road
156 metres
Many cyclists create their own advance stop line at the lights on Hills Road - needs to be formalised in the clear interest of safety and convenience

Opportunistic cyclists use the skip as a temporary place to park while visiting the pub opposite.

Gwydir Street, outside the Cambridge Blue pub (on the left). In the evenings, this area is piled with bikes on the pavement, due to the lack of cycle parking. While residents' car parking is in short supply, cycle parking is non-existent.
165 metres
The sign in the window says "NO BIKES". This is a very clear indicator that there is a need for cycle parking in the area, given that residents are fed up of people parking their bikes against the houses. Petersfield Ward Councillors need t ... [more]

There should be enough space to be made easily available for the Chisholm Trail on the western side of the railway track, from the Railway Station through Mill Road bridge to Hooper Street (south of the grey transformer box). View from Mill ... [more]

Newly installed cycle parking in the small area near this parking meter, in a residential area.

Cambridge Cycling Campaign's stall. Our "Support two-way cycling" posters are one of the main draws of people to break the ice and ask "What's all that about then?"

View north of Hooper Street. If all the tracks are in use the area will be somewhat tight for the Chisholm Trail here.

Cycle parking needed opposite the Cambridge Blue pub. Two or three car spaces should be removed.
