You should send that to the Warrington Cycle Campaign for their
"Facility Of The Month" page - top work!


I use the segregated cycle lane sections to the west of that location
between the Bedford Way/Tavistock Sq junction and Marchmont St on my way
from Westminster to King's Cross station.

I don't use the section between Marchmont St and Judd St illustrated and
have never seen this nonsense.


I turn off at Marchmont Street too, so i rarely have to negotiate the
bloody thing either. The day i took that, i was riding from the west end
to the City, and that seemed like a good route.

I can't for the life of me think why that crossover isn't arranged at
the lights on the Judd St junction


Quite!

but then they wouldn't have the anti-cyclist lights arrangement at the
Marchmont St junction if they were that sensible.


Oh christ! That junction! AAAAAAAAAAARRRRGGGHHH!! It makes me INSANE WITH
RAGE whenever i see it, or even think about it. It's an affront to common
sense and human dignity. One day, i'm going to burn it down.
