163677 | ![]() | Trafford Park near Media City. The vegetation obstructing the walkway has started to be cleared. This is the best bit but still there is soil and debris that has not been cleared near the back of pavement to beyond the lamppost line. plants will very quickly take route and obstruct again. In the distance the vegetation has not been cleared forcing pedestrians to use the cycle section of the segregated route. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |

151213 | ![]() | Dog excrement has been bagged and hung up on a sign post at head level on the approach to the footbridge on the North side of the River Mersey. The excrement will be festering inside the bag waiting for someone to accidentally break the bag to release the obnoxious contents . The contents potential for harm will have multiplied many fold during it's enclosure . The dog walker would have been better using the stick an flick method allowing the offensive material to decompose naturally away from the path. Or even just leaving the mess on the path would have been a lot safer than leaving this unexploded turd bomb.

Should be bollards only. @CWATrafford See Guidance from "A Guide to Inclusive Cycling" wheelsforwellbeing.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/FINAL-v3.pdf Location - goo.gl/maps/w3sL3CRSKht4QD7H9 Obstructions like this block anyone not using a standard bicycle from accessing the new bridge. twitter.com/BeeUrmston/status/1281513195954483201 The proposals to replace this barrier are not inclusive and are inadequate for when the path becomes more popular such as at weekends and school holidays. The spacing of bollards must meet the standard recommended in local transport note From LTN 2/08 [pdf] www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/329150/ltn-2-08_Cycle_infrastructure_design.pdf 8.14.4 Bollards are the preferred method of access control for larger vehicles, spaced a minimum of 1.2 metres apart, preferably 1.5 metres. For an additional deterrent effect, they can be installed as two staggered rows with a minimum 1.2 metres between rows (see Figures 8.5 and 8.6). Bollards should ideally be placed at least 5 metres from any bend or junction, so that riders can approach them straight on. Bollards can be hazardous on unlit routes and at sites where forward visibility is restricted by the layout or by other users.
