Crossing from exit of first link from East Lancashire Road (East Lancs). Crosses Chadock Lane (main road) onto Kennedy Road (Quite, but industrial, road)
No dropped kerb to access the road and no way to access the cycleway on the other side. What on earth is going on here?
This is ridiculous - how are you expected to cycle onto the road when there are no dropped kerbs and when there's a sodding great fence in the way?
The crossing is welcome but the approach is difficult to navigate. Cyclists do not ride in right-angles, they ride in curves, and so the approach should be curved. And the buttons can be difficult for someone on a cargo bike to reach with ... [more]

The canal towpath near this point has now been given a much improved sealed surface, so it's a shame that this point of access has been completely untouched.
Looks like Wigan council didn't get the memo about greater manchester investing in cycle infrastructure. I genuinely didn't know these were cycle lanes until now. My shoulders are wider. Here's a tip, if you can't fit the bike picture in ... [more]
A dangerous toucan crossing near Saddle junction. The button on the right controls the first carriageway, but you have to stop in the island and press another button to stop traffic in the other carriageway. The crossing looks as though t ... [more]
@OfficialTfGM @WiganCouncil I saw hardly anyone cycling there when I passed through last year, though much potential https://t.co/gXZ9wU2vqy
