| 88361 |  | Direct access to the City Loop cycle route from Lancaster station. | General sign/notice: Good practice signs |
| 87823 |  | Cycle parking on the Stone Jetty at Morecambe. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
| 87822 |  | Cycle parking on Morecambe promenade. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
| 87821 |  | Worn out painted cycle lane only visible by its colour, leading from Water St to the Toucan Crossing across Cable St to Chapel St. Google Streetview shows that those signs have been facing the wrong way for over 2 years! | Road environment: Problem road |
| 87820 |  | I'm not sure if the marking is to indicate that this should be used by cyclists going in this direction onto Water St, because it is so worn out, but otherwise this is a cycle lane for getting to the toucan crossing across Cable St behind the camera. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 87819 |  | Warning of the two-way cycle lane crossing the exit from Butterfield St onto Chapel St. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 87818 |  | The crossing from Chapel St to Water St, across Cable St, is not exactly up to Dutch standards! | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 87817 |  | Two-way cycle lane on Chapel St, approaching junction across Cable St. The narrow footway leads to people walking in the cycle lane. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 87816 |  | Two-way cycle lane in Chapel St, without segregation from the main carriageway. The footway is quite narrow here and pedestrians were walking in the cycle lane. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 87815 |  | Two-way cycletrack from Chapel St around the corner to North Road, and narrow footway. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 87814 |  | Two-way cycle track towards the riverside, via North Road, Chapel St and Water St. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 87652 |  | Contraflow cycle lane in North Road. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 87651 |  | Time limited Cyclists Dismount sign in Cheapside, along with damaged Pedestrian Zone signage, and some cycle parking. | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs |
| 87650 |  | Contraflow cycle lane interrupted by loading bay outside pub. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 87649 |  | With-flow and contraflow painted cycle lanes in Church Street, with access to the Stonewell toucan crossing across the footway to the left. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 87648 |  | Narrow shared-use footway to access toucan crossing on Stonewell. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 87647 |  | Toucan crossing across Stonewell. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 87646 |  | Cobbled Moor Lane with cycle parking on traffic island, and access to a toucan crossing across Stonewell via a shared-use footway on the right. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 87645 |  | Line-segregated path between Long Marsh Lane and the riverside. I think I'd be crossing the line rather than trying to pass someone coming the other way in such a narrow space. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 87644 |  | The Edge Cycleworks in Chapel Street. | Bike shop: Infrastructure bikeshops |
| 87643 |  | Directions at the end of the Millennium Bridge. The City Loop cycle route is on top of the viaduct, accessed from the other leg of the bridge. | Route sign: Infrastructure routesigns |
| 87605 |  | Signage for the City Loop next to the railway bridge on Long Marsh Lane. | Route sign: Infrastructure routesigns |
| 87604 |  | The City Loop signage coming from Lancaster station. | Route sign: Infrastructure routesigns |
| 87603 |  | The cycle route cuts through a car park, with an S-shaped paint path where a straight one would fit. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 87602 |  | Contraflow cycle lane on Phoenix Street, and shared footway connection on Parliament St to toucan crossing across towards the riverside. The contraflow lane will be encroached by any motor vehicle passing vehicles parked in the marked parking bays. [I'd assumed they were loading bays, but Google Streetview shows Pay & Display signs] | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 87601 |  | Smalleys cycle shop. | Bike shop: Infrastructure bikeshops |
| 87600 |  | The turning circle at the end of Water Street has a cycle lane painted around it! The access to the riverside path (in #87599) can be seen (centre). The Sainsbury car park also exits onto the turning circle (at right). | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 87599 |  | Exit to Water Street. The turning circle has a cycle lane painted around it! (See also #87600) | Route sign: Infrastructure routesigns |
| 87598 |  | NCN69 alongside the River Lune. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 87525 |  | Path towards Lancaster, needing swept of decaying leaf mess in several locations. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 87524 |  | NCN69 path to Morecambe and the A589. I think the sign for NCN6 could be positioned closer to the toucan crossing. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 87523 |  | Shared-use footway alongside A589. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 87522 |  | Exit from park to toucan crossing across A589 leading to NCN69 path on riverside. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 87521 |  | No Cycling on the footway approaching a toucan crossing and shared-use path in park, or on the road including a bus lane signed for cycling? See also #87520. | General sign/notice: Problem signs |
| 87520 |  | One assumes that this dropped kerb and dilapidated road marking is so cyclists can leave the carriageway and use the toucan crossing ahead to cross to NCN69 path, but what the heck is that No Cycling sign all about? Does it apply to the road (and bus lane signed for cycling) or to the footway? See also #87521. | Route sign: Problem routesigns |
| 87505 |  | Riverside cycleway towards Caton, at Green Ayre. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways |
| 87504 |  | Entrance to underpass, with barriers at each end. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 87503 |  | Not the prettiest of underpasses, and narrow with a corner at one end. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 87502 |  | NCN69 turns right here to go down a ramp into the underpass beneath the road to the left. See also #87503 & #87504. The City Loop cycle route continues straight ahead on the shared footway. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 87501 |  | Ramp up to main road before going back down to an underpass (see #87502). | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 87500 |  | Cycle parking at supermarket next to riverside NCN route. | Cycle parking: Good practice cycleparking |
| 87491 |  | No Cycling on this staircase! The stairs lead to a footbridge attached to the side of the railway bridge high above the river. Probably as quick to cycle to the Millennium Bridge now than to lug a bike up and down these stairs. | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs |
| 87490 |  | A bit of a blind corner, but widened enough to take the turn away from the stonework. | Route sign: Infrastructure routesigns |
| 87489 |  | Riverside path to the west of the rail bridge. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 87488 |  | Cycle parking outside the maritime museum entrance. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
| 87487 |  | Riverside path (and flood defence gate), and a couple of stands. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |

| 87481 |  | Cycle marking on the A6. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 87480 |  | Cycle parking stands outside Lancaster bus station, next to the smoking area. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
| 87442 |  | Cycle parking stands next to Lancaster Castle and Priory. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
| 87441 |  | Cyclists Dismount 10am-5pm, and at other times? No Entry applies all the time. Maybe not the intention. | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs |
| 87440 |  | Two-way cycling in the partially pedestrianised Church St in Lancaster. | General sign/notice: Good practice signs |
| 87439 |  | Cycle parking and lockers in a car park next to the bus stances. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
| 87438 |  | Cycle parking and hire bikes at Morecambe station, although the hire bikes seem to be taking over the passenger cycle parking too. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
| 87437 |  | Even on these single coach trains, the entrance door leading to the bike stowage location is indicated externally. | General sign/notice: Good practice signs |
| 87436 |  | Location signed for loading bikes onto Virgin Trains. | General sign/notice: Good practice signs |
| 87435 |  | One of several cycle parking locations around Lancaster station, and with lockers available. | Cycle parking: Good practice cycleparking |
| 87434 |  | Sensible advice without being patronising, in Lancaster railway station. Not far to go to get to the cycle parking. | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs |
| 59188 |  | Credit to Costain, and/or the designers of the Link Road works, for this excellent path diversion round the work site. I was expecting a narrow, obstructed, bumpy diversion, and therefore very surprised when this wide, well-surfaced, lit route was created. It now even has a bench for people to watch the work! I have never seen chicanes on a hill before which you could actually cycle round at a sensible speed but not at a dangerous speed, I wish all chicane barriers were like this! Having said that, I'm not 100% sure they were necessary, perhaps more so on the E end where visibility is restricted under the bridge, but either way far far better than what is usually done. | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways |
| 58783 |  | A pointless bit of cycle diversion onto and off the path. As you can see from the photo, there is a toucan crossing, cyclists are it seems expected to use that all the way across, then make their way back into traffic off the shared-use path. I suppose it is also the end of said path coming along that side of the road. Either way, there is no 'slip road' and no priority or even warning over traffic. | Other: Problem general |
| 58782 |  | The only excuse for this path is that there is an excellent off-road path running parallel not far from the road. For people accessing properties on the road though, or those crossing it to get to the path, the road itself is extremely busy, with lots of HGVs, and is narrow and generally unattractive. The path is narrow (it would admittedly be very hard to find more space here), is obstructed all over the place, has no priority over side roads or direveways even though it is a main route into the city, and is badly marked/worn out. It's the same both sides of the road. Shall I go on? | Other: Problem general |
| 58781 |  | Both good and bad in one place. Bus stops in shared paths are rarely a good thing, especially when this narrow. Making the best of a bad situation though, I have never seen a barrier like this before, which stops the stop users from suddenly appearing from behind the ad hoarding. The extra metre of visibility gives rider and pedestrian a chance to avoid each other. You would still have to slow down a lot though to be safe. | Other: Good practice general |
| 58314 |  | During the construction of a new road bridge over the Lune the Lune Cycle Path (part of the Sustrans Way of the Roses) had to be diverted. I was expecting a botch-up but we got this convenient well constructed diversion which will be in use for up to two years. then the original path line will be restored. Full Marks! | Temporary closure: Good practice closure |
