And what's this for? A slip road for cycling? What if i wanted to turn right (i actually did). Or, turn left, as fast as you can, into a parked car...

Hay people, don't cycle in the dooring zone. @ealingcouncil.bsky.social @onehanwell.bsky.social @ealingnews.bsky.social
A freshly remodelled Leeland Road in West Ealing.

It's one way for cars but two way for bikes, but it's quite narrow and the symbols to show where to cycle are right alongside motor vehicle parking

Every time I go this way I think it's kinda mad that there is a motorway style sign right there where I wait at the red light, designed for drivers to see from long way away when doing 70mph. On a 20mph road that i can cycle along.

The council seems to think yellow lines will stop people blocking the road or any painted cycle lane.

Brand new cycle track by @ealingcouncil.bsky.social . No wands/bollards. The very predictable result... Motor vehicle blocking it, along with tyre marks showing motor vehicles are being driven/parked in it. @ealinglibdems.bsky.social in your 'hood I think! Bedford Road W13.
A brand new cycle track in Ealing delimited by a single solid white line of paint, blocked my a motor scooter.  

Car tyre marks can also be seen all over it.

We only get pedestrian lights here when they dig up the road. Normally peds have to scarper across south and west arms with traffic coming from all directions, no green man. Lucky they dig up the road a lot here... @ealingcouncil.bsky.social @onehanwell.bsky.social
The Hanwell Clocktower Junction in Ealing W7 with temprary pedestrian lgihts on all arms of the junction. 

Normally the south and west arm of the junctions do not have these so people have to scarper across with motor vehicle coming from all directions.
