THANK YOU @GlosRoads for listening to cyclists, & removing the 6 extra bollards (put in after possibly just a *single complaint* about fast cyclists). We look forward to working with you to further improve this area for ALL users 🙌🏽🌟
@StroudActive have you seen the bollard party happening at the Wallbridge underpass? It’s practically impassable on a cargo bike and a danger to any cyclists who wouldn’t expect to find a bollard right in the middle of the cycle lane 🤦♀️
@wevegotwheels@bekialdam@StroudActive Those steps are a nightmare, but the Rodborough hill end is precariously steep and winding too, such a shame because otherwise it’s a good off-road route Stroud-Nailsworth and we are really appreciating the new surfacing on the bulk of it

Cycling people: @imillustrator and I are starting a WhatsApp group for cargo bikes / bike accessibility in & around Stroud type chat. Pls share and DM me if you'd like to be part of it x 🚲🚲🚲
@GlosRoads @TownStroud @StroudActive But what they infact do is force cyclists to swerve out of the cycle lane and into the pedestrian lane, as well as making the underpass less accessible or inaccessible to cargo-bike or hand-cycle users, and dangerous at night with barely visible bollards in the middle of the path
@GlosRoads@StroudActive @TownStroud @CrippledCyclist I think you need to check that the infrastructure you’ve put in complies with LTN 1/20 before any meetings take place, because of this is not the case it needs remedying immediately
Got my mini-worker helping me out, wrapping and writing labels for our books by bike deliveries THIS WEEK! There's still time to request a book for you or your neighbours #Stroud folk! Pls let people know 📚

The new coronavirus variant and rising case numbers and hospitalisations nationally and locally in #Stroud district and #Gloucestershire mean we need to take extra care. But the things that work to reduce spread still do - read this thread:
