| 187855 |  | Stretford at Trafford Town Hall. A very wide path with what looks like a parallel crossing for cycles and pedestrians but there are No Cycling signs posted on the lampposts. Does this mean no cycling on the left hand path in the picture ensuring that people on bikes use the correct path on the parallel crossing ? If so a better option would be a blue sign indicated a segregated path indicating where pedestrians and cyclists should be. This path connects Talbot Road to a large supermarket so will be well used by shoppers walking or cycling. twitter.com/Cyclinstructor/status/1595015584772677633 | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 187656 |  | Trafford near Manchester . Morrisons Daily newly opened the parked bike is not supported and falls over in the slightest wind. The cycle parking comprises 1 wheel bender. @morrisons can we have a proper cycle stand(s) here. There's plenty of room and lots customers who arrive by bike. Cycle stands will also allow for parking of prams and dogs and offer increased protection to the shop and ATM. Cycle parking needs to support the frame NOT the wheel . twitter.com/Cyclinstructor/status/1590757623632400385 | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |

| 185849 |  | [Image taken 25.8.22] The Point, inside Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester (emiratesoldtrafford.lancashirecricket.co.uk/about/). [NOTE: No street view at this location.] It was great: a) staff knew there was cycle parking inside the ground, b) to be encouraged to take our cycles through the ticket barriers and head for Sheffields at The Point. But the racks were obstructed due to a row of temporary toilet cubicles. Other image today: #185848. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |

Alt text: Video from a cyclist's point of view running along a wand protected green cycle lane. There is a series of traffic islands to help with right turns for cycles 1/2 twitter.com/rantyhighwayman/status/1544932130802761733 | Other: Infrastructure general |
| 182792 |  | Trafford Sale . Incorrect use of a road sign (Cyclists dismount and use pavement ) This sign only to be used on streets where motor vehicles are also not allowed. The correct sign would be to warn drivers of cyclists in the lane and to not overtake. See #101860 reported to Trafford 24/5/22 ref 2562557 | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 182441 |  | Hugely overgrown access to the Bridgewater Canal from Ashburton Road West. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |

| 181174 |  | The landowner find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/00995545 (Mainline Pipelines Ltd) has decided to replace a perfectly accessible gap to a path, with an inaccessible gate. That's yet another path closed off to disabled people. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 181130 |  | epetition democratic.trafford.gov.uk/mgEPetitionDisplay.aspx to Trafford council to investigate and create with TfGM a new cycle route using the redundant rail tracks 3 & 4 between Sale Britannia Road and Trafford Bar Talbot Road. see also #181131? | Other: Problem general |
| 180257 |  | Junction 7 has 12 toucan crossings . 11 have green phases synchronised to the junction phases. This is the only crossing that does not have a green phase . Is this dangerous especially when sun glare/reflections are a hazard ? People will presume that when the southbound traffic joining the M60 to Stockport from the A56 is on green phase they will be allowed to cross. Vulnerable users will be waiting a long time until another active travel user arrives. Physically fit people will be frustrated to press the button and obliged to wait every time and significantly longer than the equivalent phase on the South side. Is it likely these people will risk crossing on the red phase ? Is it likely that cyclists will choose the riskier (very scary) on road route rather than the safer but inconvenient waiting at the toucan ? Is it also a possibility that active travel users will be put off completely and choose the car instead ? See also #152134 | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 180130 |  | Extremely difficult to get this Cargoroo cargo bike through this barrier. It's high time the relevant authorities did their duty and removed these illegal barriers. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |

| 178133 |  | Broadlands Wood - Size: 0.45 ha (1.11 acres) Grid reference: SJ769911 Woodlands Trust land between Westminster Close and Chichester Close In Sale Trafford. The circular path in this wood has been blocked by a fallen tree. The fence has also been broken here. Also the squeeze access from Westminster Close is very tight and impossible for ladies in late pregnancy. Broadlands is open for quiet recreation and is well-used by the public. Within the wood is a short circular path which is surfaced but may get muddy and slippery in wet conditions. | Track: Problem track |
| 177052 |  | UPDATE 20/1/2022 EA have agreed to repair the path as a reasonable action to make the place better. Ashton on Mersey path along River Mersey on the South bank . Recent bank reinforcement work has damaged the path from the heavy vehicles. Let's hope that Environment Agency are 'Creating a Better Place' here when they have completed the making good works INCLUDING repairing to the path. environmentagency.blog.gov.uk/ | Other: Infrastructure general |

| 175441 |  | UPDATE 18/12/21 GMUTC have confirmed these are for detection cables (response from TfGM  1121-06ASVJ-04287 ). Further info is requested. UPDATE 10/11/21 reported to GMUTC (TfGM) as the ridge is to do with the Stretford - a cycle lane transforms onto a shared footway and then a Toucan crossing. Just to the right of the white dashed line is a black ridged line. It's very difficult to see that the black line is ridged and slippery. Joining the shared path requires riding across the line at a critical angle. This angle risks the front wheel being caught by the ridge and unbalancing the rider causing a fall. The rider has to consider other users of the shared path and may also be applying brakes to slow down all of which add to the risk of falling. It is not known why there should be a ridge of tarmac in a cycle lane at an alighting/access point. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 174577 |  | A good bus stop bypass and a great new set of cycle tracks on this major road. This route will eventually form a continuous cycle route from Chorlton to Manchester. | Dutch-style cycleway: Good practice dutchcycleways |
| 174543 |  | Annoying inaccessible barrier that should all be replaced with bollards. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |

| 169902 |  | Staircase down from School Lane to the TPT. There is an opportunity here to use the unused woodland to the west/left, to create a flat access track directly to School Lane. This would enable much easier access for all. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 169798 |  | Of course the road has no mud, but the narrow bypass for pedestrians and horses (the disabled are excluded) is full of mud. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 169765 |  | Desire line on the grass verge showing demand for a short section of pavement up to the TPT access point. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 169724 |  | Ludicrous, pointless stupid barrier on a staircase. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 169723 |  | These barriers are to slow cyclists down near the bar. They're far too tight and a better solution might be to use sinusoidal speed humps. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 168256 |  | Main Entrance to John Leigh Park. At last the access has been improved. Previous access was a locked gate requiring stepping up the kerb across the pavement and through 1 of 2 pedestrian access'. The one on the left required stepping over muddy grass. In time some signage and enforcement may be required to discourage parking and blocking this entrance. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 168255 |  | Road resurfaced here end of April 2021 to a really high standard. The path is just soil ! There is NO path on the other side . Reported to Trafford : Carrington Lane West bound and West of junction with Banky Lane. Road has been resurfaced to a high standard but the path is just soil ! Especially during a pandemic this doesn't encourage walking or cycling and the many that have started to walk or cycle will give up when they encounter this.

| 165380 |  | Planters, funded under the first EATF scheme, have replaced the old inaccessible barriers here. A new surface has also been laid where necessary. The result is that you can cycle straight through here without delay, as can disabled people. | Obstruction: Good practice obstructions |
| 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 |
| 163676 |  | Stretford Town Hall Trafford . Cycle lane lines and green are being repainted. They are being painted exactly the same sub standard width . Should be 2 metres minimum especially on this national cycle route 55 and as there is plenty of space. Not certain why the surface should be green here - it's not passing an entrance or even a dropped kerb | Road environment: Problem road |
| 162762 |  | The Life Centre, 235 Washway Road, Sale, M33 4BP . Cycle parking located undercover in car park area for 20 bicycles but partially blocked by equipment.
