101577Photo #101577Water street near Victoria and Albert Hotel funky drawbridge is quite fun though, when you cycle over it, it tips! But it no longer leads anywhere. twitter.com/SalfordMH/status/1028034123611418627 Hopefully this bridge will lead to somewhere when the long awaited replacement to Princes Bridge is opened (it's complete for use by cyclists but is waiting construction and development work to start and complete by 2020 at earliest) #11938 #87848 . The SFA (Strategic Regeneration Framework ) hopefully includes the opening up of both sides of the River Irwell as green linear spacesOther:

Path is part of network. Barrier is to stop motorbikes but there's 10 other entrances they can use. Wrong to prevent adaptive bikes using this path! Chorlton/Streford Border on Hawthorn Lane . At least one of these barriers could be removed and still stop motor cars from using.Obstruction:

Also when the pedestrian lights are green to cross Mauldeth Rd West this would be an ideal and safe opportunity for cycles to be allowed to cross from Chelsfield Grove onto Mauldeth Rd WCongestion:

101192Photo #101192Sackville St Manchester UPDATE The University have replied "Although this area is marked following the completion of GEIC building, it is ambiguous for cyclists at the moment we admit. We are currently working on changes to the paths around this route", After extensive construction work at the University - A new high kerb is placed on the cycle lane an obstacle for contraflow cycles heading South onto the off road section
www.cyclestreets.net/location/81043/ @OfficialUoM Sackville St @GMcycling #YCMIU #AWTH @Chris_Boardman @UoMsust
Suggest that a stop line is placed well back from the junction so that the cycle lane can be widened here repainted and realigned to join the off road bit. At the same time the whole of this kerb should be dropped in case a cyclist needs to avoid a stray pedestrian or inattentive driver.		Obstruction:

99667Photo #99667Cross Street approaching John Dalton St and Princess St.
traffic signals do not detect cycle approach . A novice cyclist would cycle between the rail and the kerb - it is not certain whether there is a detection loop here, to pick any cycle approach.:

On approach Southbound the traffic signals on Cross St do not detect cycles. 1 cycle approached the junction near the kerb to avoid crossing the tram rail unnecessarily ; I waited through 3 phases of light changes while this signal remained on red.

Vehicle detection is by a MVD (or Moving Vehicle Detector) – this is a small unit on top of the traffic signal pole – and not a physical loop in the carriageway

· MVDs have a detection zone and this is angled to detect all cycles and trams on the approach to the signals


a fault os raised with signal maintenance company to check detection



If any signals are not detecting cycles in Greater Manchester then please email gmutc@tfgm.com and it will pass to the signal company directly.		Obstruction:

91986Photo #91986On a mobike in Manchester.

The bikes are ok for pooling around town. No gears and a little under-geared for my liking. They are robust but the women I was with said they were heavy. I couldn't raise the seat as high as I'd like.

I overheard one say to another when they noticed the bike: "Have you seen these new bikes? ... They rock.".

Manchester has trams and cycling is permitted on some sections shared with trams but not all and that inconsistency is another complication to riding.		Other:
