Taking a break...

FixMyStreet is going offline shortly, probably permanently. The software is old and needs a complete rewrite, the site is being bombarded by spammers, and it is debatable whether councils are receiving and/or acting on FixMyStreet reports.

As of now, it is not possible to post new issues, or updates to published issues.

Roadworks sign obstructing cycle lane

Roadworks sign proclaiming “Shoulder Closed” is encroaching onto most of the marked cycle lane on Shands Rd approaching the new signalised intersection with Edmonton Rd heading towards Hornby. There is not enough space to cycle past the sign whilst staying in the cycle lane. This is a 70kph road used by a large number of big trucks, which makes getting safely around the sign a bit nerve-wracking. Why wasn’t the sign placed a meter to the left on the edge of the seal/dirt verge, where it would still be visible without obstructing the cycle lane?
