[Image taken 21.10.22] Storey's Wine Bar/Westminster Arms (www.westminsterarms.co.uk/), 9 & 10 Storey Gate, Westminster, SW1P 3AT. Two laden e-cargo cycles. This image was posted to the Lambeth Cycles googlegroup: https://lambethcyclists.or ... [more]
There are plenty of folding bikes already on the Elizabeth Line - I'm not sure that people have realised that regular bikes can also be carried.

The bus/car parking lanes on Waterloo Bridge have been converted into wide and properly protected cycle lanes.

The west end of the Strand was closed to through motor traffic in August 2021. It's STILL a building site in March 2022, with no through access for bikes at the west end.

Bike-sharing station and bridge to Paddington station across the canal (ramp this end, steps and a lift at the other).
Rising bollards/modal filter - having been closed for a full ten years for Crossrail construction work, access on the southwestern side of Paddington station has been opened up again.

Modal filter on the ramp to/from the Crossrail (Elizabeth Line) station at Paddington - those aren't Sheffield stands to the left, they're just to keep the doors clear.
Passageway between the main line and Crossrail (Elizabeth Line) stations at Paddington - the No Cycles sign refers only to the temporary fencing but there's still a huge lack of cycle parking here.
A ‘live’ cycle parking indicator telling you exactly how many spaces are left. We’ve done this for years with car parks but I’ve not seen one for bikes before (although I expect it's not the first). [Particularly useful for peopl ... [more]
Lansdowne Passage leading to Berkeley Street - this was notorious as a perfect getaway for robbers and highwaymen. They put in place iron bars to stop them riding through. https://t.co/hBnQjspNaK See also www.londonremembers.com/sites ... [more]
Bike parking and Santander cycles at the National Gallery - the stands in the distance are fenced off for building work.

Maybe they'll finally be able to provide a decent amount of cycle parking for Somerset House and the Courtauld Gallery once the west end of the Strand is open only to pedestrians and cycles?

It would be more useful to actually provide cycle parking rather than just putting up railings with No Cycle Parking stickers.

Feeing for the owner of this newish looking bike locked up on the corner of Berwick and Gt Marlborough St in Soho- the roadworks further along the road mean that large vehicles turn right and perhaps don’t check what they’re running ove ... [more]
Bus lane closure because of building work to the left - all the cyclists I saw just weaved through the bollards.
Companies are starting to notice the value of cargo bikes.... (also saw a pedalme, but those are 2 a penny in London now :) https://t.co/ywDV466A7C
Convertible space with tip-up seats in a Class 345 Crossrail (Elizabeth line) train - I didn't see any specific cycle markings outside.
Just three steps to get a bike down at Paddington station - but a total block for wheelchairs, of course.
@allpartycycling I would not totally hate going back to something that looks like this. https://t.co/N9pcbumJxs See https://www.carnaby.co.uk/history/
It's mid-lockdown, but there are lots of bikes at Paddington station (mine included). There's a public tool stand as well.
I'm pretty sure a northbound lane has been closed off here - it's a shame that contraflow cycling wasn't maintained.
Is this a replacement for the stands in #164638 and #164639, removed perhaps to give pedestrians space for social distancing ? Not very impressive.
Lane for taxis turning left into Paddington station - cyclists can continue ahead, but need to look out for taxis emerging.
I am never not *astonished* when I walk thru Lutyens’s Page Street flat blocks in Pimlico, (1) ‘cause BLIMEY that chequerboard effect is *dazzling* and (2) they feel so modern yet a design of 1928. Social housing; but fine housing. Even ... [more]
The widened footways for social distancing by St Mary's Hospital don't make life any easier for cyclists.
