davieG Posted 29 October 2014 Share Posted 29 October 2014 Beware the traffic around the underpass, newarke st and Welford road has just got worse as they've installed an experimental cycle lane on Welford rd from newarke st down to the hospital. Came down there today and the traffic was backed up sll the way to the Highcross on burleys way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isaidno Posted 29 October 2014 Share Posted 29 October 2014 Another brilliant idea by Peter Soulsby. Taking me ages to get to and from work , and why have a cycle lane in the outside lane. It will be dangerous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamN Posted 29 October 2014 Share Posted 29 October 2014 Wouldn't be half as bad if people were actually using the existing bike lanes. It's hardly Amsterdam, is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MattP Posted 29 October 2014 Share Posted 29 October 2014 Heard a few people calling Soulsby a **** over this on Monday. 45-50 mins to get from the top of town to Glenfield now between 4-6 in the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Posted 29 October 2014 Share Posted 29 October 2014 They're on about changing the golden mile as well to a "shared zone". The bloke is an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davieG Posted 29 October 2014 Author Share Posted 29 October 2014 As I said the traffic was choked and not a single cyclist in sight. The only people I've seen on the cycle lane on newarke st have been delivery and roadwork vehicles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cycle lane on Newark street doesn't actually go anywhere , and the new cycle lane is on the opposite side of the road Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamba's Babes Posted 29 October 2014 Share Posted 29 October 2014 De Montfort Street to Freemans Meadow - 35mins.All round Tigers and LRI was a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babylon Posted 29 October 2014 Share Posted 29 October 2014 Utterly pointless, what exactly do they hope to achieve? More people riding to work perhaps... because 400 metres of cycle lane will have people flooding to cycle to work won't it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuchsntf Posted 29 October 2014 Share Posted 29 October 2014 This guy Traffic, seems a good player, defends the line, holds up well, plays the channels or lanes well, not unkown to try the odd bicycle kick, and revs up when frustrated, gives gas when he sees tempo is asked for, or slows down when needed When did we buy him..??. Definetly doesnt like Red Orange or green, so must be a bluefox We need a new song or chant to welcome him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam1 Posted 29 October 2014 Share Posted 29 October 2014 I was on my bike about 12 months ago and I saw Soulsby. I knew that he was going to step off the kerb and into one of the mini bike lanes near Fenwicks. I knew that if he did I wouldn't be able to stop. I prepared myself to make sure he came worse off. The ****ing **** stepped out but then looked and jumped backwards out of the way. Anyway as a cyclist, and as someone who also drives, I can safely say that I am the voice of reason and the recent works are absolute b#ll#cks and do f#ck all. The Newarke Street bike lane to New Walk is a prime example. Ignoring the fact that there is a cycling ban on New Walk, there is already an existing bike lane which links DMU to the Council HQ. This runs down York Road (runs parallel to Newarke Street and the Newarke Street Car Park entrance is on it). This cycle route is two way, and a lane is provided for those bikes going against traffic. This is part of an existing bike route which connects the Council HQ to DMU, and then onto Bede Park (National Cycle Route). It continues past Bede Park and up into the Westcotes Drive Area. I always see cyclists on York Road. I never (ultra rarely) see cyclists using the bike path on Newarke Street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
