Pinch Point On Northumberland Road, Bristol

Please sign in to vote.

Added by Sam Saunders

Northumberland Road (part of Concord Way at this point) has been deliberately narrowed to allow pedestrians to cross between the footbridge and the Sports Centre and a cycle lane marking has been placed to one side of the narrow gap. The gap, however, is not wide enough to allow a car and a bicycle to go safely through the pinch point at the same time. A cyclist needs to take the centre of the lane, or pull over and wait for vehicles to pass.

Either the carriageway should be re-widened (preferred) or the cycle lane indicator should be removed.
