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]
Hopefully someone will be along with a better picture soon, but the cycle lanes on Waterloo Bridge have taken over the former car parking/bus lane areas and are now wide and properly protected.
Bike parking and Santander cycles at the National Gallery - the stands in the distance are fenced off for building work.
The west end of the Strand was closed to through motor traffic in August. It's still a building site, with no through access for bikes at the west end.

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.
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.

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.
This shared crossing with pedestrians has too much conflict now to be shared use; the crossing should be redesigned to separate out users
Now that’s how you design a quick build cycle lane and bus stop!! Admittedly, it does help if you’ve spent half a century aggressively widening roads in the name of car dominance.
The Regent’s Canal towpath is not much use for effective cycling when there are many people enjoying the waterway vicinity on foot.

New contraflow cycle lane, blocked by a Royal Mail van which forces cyclists out into oncoming traffic.
