Seems like a metaphor for Bolton Council's attitude to cycling. The red sign represents the (evidence-based) officers and the blue one represents the (social media-based) Council Executive. https://t.co/GGW4fyIZJL

Bolton Council seem to have run out of stripy paint and lit poles for this.....whatever it is.

A pleasant place to be although I have some reservations about the surface treatment. Gravel does not equal "countryside". This is a wholly man-made environment and therefore, concerns about sealed surfaces looking too "urban" should be … [more]

New towpath surface, Centrack

Route from shopping centre to central Bolton - not much improvement needed to make this a decent cycle route.

Horrid North American-style cycle parking by Bolton Town Hall

Crossing to the pedestrian shopping area in Bolton

Striking new bridge between Bolton station and the town centre - couldn't a separate cycle track have been included?

Secure cycle parking on the platform at Bolton station

Bad road layout. Cyclists near the kerb can get cut up by motor vehicles turning left.

Very dangerous cycle lane. 90% of motor vehicle drivers cut the bend, driving over the cycle lane at the apex. Cyclists cut up in the cycle lane.

Awkward cycle lane arrangement.

Awkward side road junction. Busy due to Aldi and estate, often get cut up when there are cars waiting to turn on left and right.

Nasty cycle lane leading to junction. If you use it, you frequently get left hooked at the junction or cut up on the other side of the junction where the lane is narrow with no cycle lane.

Junction across the brow of a steep hill, through a blind bend. Drivers often overtake despite no visibility of oncoming traffic, even when cyclist in primary position. Danger of being cut up if an oncoming vehicle appears.

Steep uphill on a narrow road that is a major route into town centre. Drivers tend to pass close to slow moving cyclists.

Bad cycle lane in poor road position in conflict with Bikeability advice. Awkward lane width encouraging close passes.

Bad cycle lane between two lanes of motor traffic changing lanes, bad road position in conflict with Bikeability advice.

Stupid cycle lane: too narrow, through traffic light, bad road position in conflict with Bikeability advice.

Bad road. Cycle lane too narrow (despite plenty of room), through door zone of parking spaces, with broken tarmac, in bad road position. Frequent aggression from drivers when riding in primary position.

Approaching "inner box" of one-way system.

Blackburn Rd approaching junction with Topp Way. Silly cycle lane contradicts Bikeability advice.

Approaching Bolton.
