Glad to see that #Steyning can manage despite that screen being out of order! Reverting to trusted methods like banners and writing. I hate those big obstructive screens which have been put all over Brighton, as well as here in the small West Sussex town of Steyning.

A small poster says "Farmers market is at primary school". Behind that a banner saying "Steyning Farmers Market" (partly obscured. Behind that a large screen which usually gives obvious information is out of order, showing a reflection of me as I take the photo.

"Walkers car park" Ironic? Due to NSL speeds + forbidding state of the A24 to anyone on foot/wheels/cycling? @kneppwilding.bsky.social Will there soon be a "cyclists car park"? (Lack of apostrophe noted!) 👉See WSCC's A24 consultation Closes Mon 27th Oct! yourvoice.westsussex.gov.uk/A24-worthing...

Disappointing re parking on the new #NCN20 A23 cycle lanes/pavement because the addresses have forecourts where ppl can park without obstructing #walking #wheeling #cycling every day! Photos from 3 recent days. Also partly a red route. @brighton-hove.gov.uk @trevmu10.bsky.social Any enforcement?

Rear view of a post van parked half on pavement and half on cycle lane.

Another nearby location with the rear view of a post van parked half on pavement and half on cycle lane. Same number plate.

Use of signs is getting completely out of control! They don't even make sense @brighton-hove.gov.uk Vale Road, #Portslade #Brighton

Various road signs (about 10) indicating works, road narrows, give way etc. on road and pavement on a road marked with the instruction to "Turn Right"

Has anyone seen a news report or have any info about the crash at #Falmer? Right next to #RR90 Regional Route 90 between Brighton and Lewes? Solid wall demolished, lots of car debris. Vehicle(s) must have crossed the shared path. Pics from 20th May.

Been to #Chichester today to see the new roundabout! Everything proceeding smoothly. Looks good. One driver seems not to have noticed the new arrangement and left their large black vehicle intruding into the cycle lane.

Large black SUV type vehicle parked on the left with rear offside wheel in cycle lane which leads towards the new roundabout. A sign on the left says: "New roundabout ahead. Give way to cyclists and pedestrians."

I am astounded (again) at the extent to which we tolerate damage by drivers of motor vehicles. Here, turning tactiles into crazy paving! 🚚🛻🚛 Using the space as a loading bay every day. At North Street, #Brighton #ReportFatigue @brighton-hove.gov.uk

A length of tactile paving, badly broken due to heavy vehicles being parked on it.

The contents of these collection bins always get pulled out. This one is on Preston Road near Knoyle Road. If they can't be supervised, I think it's best they go. @timrowkins.bsky.social @brighton-hove.gov.uk

A rubbish bin and a "clothes and shoes" recycling bin with a pile of clothing on the ground. Other bins are at this recycling point. A tree. a flint wall and part of a church at the back.

It's always disappointing when you see one part of the council mucking up the work of another. #Brighton #ActiveTravel @brighton-hove.gov.uk

Who's meant to clear up after car crashes? @brighton-hove.gov.uk Here at Ditchling Rd j/w Coldean Lane (Old Boat Corner) #Brighton #Stanmer Damaged railings. Vehicle bits. So much car debris & junk left everywhere. Reported to www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/report-probl... @cleanupbritain.bsky.social

The County Councils can even postpone elections to do this! Convenient for those heading for defeat!

A happy pre-Christmas celebration on Preston Rd #Brighton as thanks to @brighton-hove.gov.uk & contractors for work on the A23 #ActiveTravel scheme Phase 1. Cllr. Muten @trevmu10.bsky.social, lead on transport was there. Organised by @bricycles.org.uk Well done everyone! Onwards & northwards! 🚴‍♀️🧑‍🦽🤸‍♂️

Opposite our back gate for weeks. Our road in #Brighton is a popular place to leave large items of private property for free, despite it being a 2-way bus route! Hence, also a lot of pavement driving!

Contractors unnecessarily cone off a useable cycle lane on #NCN20, A23 southbound to #Brighton. Who wants to merge with lorries? Obstructions at several points both north & southbound today. Constant roadworks. @brighton-hove.gov.uk

'Single file traffic' sign in the foreground with a 'keep right' arrow further on with a row of cones extending across the carriageway directing cyclists and all traffic into one lane where there is large Morrisons lorry.

Sorry John Prescott died. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... He *almost* got us real road traffic reduction! But the act got diluted. Time to give it some teeth and require #TrafficReduction from authorities continuing their destructive & unhealthy "predict & provide" policies? @rogergeffen.bsky.social

A smart upgrade of #NCN20 in #Brighton is just down the road from me! We now have priority at a side road 👏👏👏, collision/conflict hotspot (Dyke Rd Drive). Drivers just need to absorb this information & adjust their cross-cutting east-west movements over our N-S route. @brightonhovecc.bsky.social

The intersection of NCN20 (green cycle path coming towards the camera) with the Dyke Road Drive turning.

Give way lines for drivers in the foreground, Green cycle path ahead.

Looking southbound as someone in the distance cycles towards the camera. NCN 20 marked on the green cycle path.

Looking northbound at green cycle path marked with NCN20 and arrows. Adjacent post with cycle path signage. Tactile paving in foreground.

#Lewes in East Sussex doesn't reduce the day to day motor traffic on the High Street. This is a big disincentive and inconvenience for #ActiveTravel and results in a lack of space to do it, as well as vehicle emissions, risk of collisions etc.

There is the back of a white car on the left, an oncoming lorry in the distance, a white car pulling out on the right and parking on Lewes High Street.

Not ideal is it? Buses are great, but being this close is going to put people off cycling. It's often better than being in the proximity of other vehicles, though. On the Lewes Road eastbound, A270, #Brighton

An on-road advisory cycle lane goes straight ahead with a bus on each side.

Pumpkin season! Time for a juggernaut to deliver 5000 to Preston Park #Brighton so you can "pick" i.e. choose your own! Not worse than a supermarket purchase though? And better than #Halloween plastic junk. But lacking the full natural connection (stalk? roots?). Curious to see the patch!

Today's the anniversary of the #Lewes flood in 2000. Bad news for our house in Cliffe! 1 metre of the Ouse river downstairs. Told to leave by the police. Later given a mop, care of Lewes District Council! It finally broke a few days ago. Brought back memories.

We were enjoying this snack in my favourite #Brighton café, Simit Palace, Western Rd when a toddler got his fingers stuck in a half open door! What to do? Open it/close it?!! Much screaming & alarm! Eventually fingers out, still attached. Phew. Enormous relief. How quickly everything can change!

TRO 11 & 11a Old Town were meant to make it easier to cycle/walk/wheel. Despite a toucan link to the seafront, Black Lion St has been turned into a barricaded dead-end, blocked with barrels and parking. Does 'closed' REALLY mean closed to cycles? TRO didn't make it clear! 2-way cycle route lost!
