Is it any wonder we are on the wrong side of this chart?

Traveling home to #Sligo from an overnight trip to to #Dublin. The new cargo carriages make traveling with a bike so easy. Thanks #IrishRail. @sligocycling.bsky.social @irishcyclingcmpn.bsky.social

There were lots of positives with some lanes linking housing estates and some great separated cycle tracks. But none of the potential routes were fully safe. Eg You can go through Kevinsfort through a lane to St Mary's but the 3rd photo is a "cycle lane" you need to take to get to kevinsfort. 2/n
Lane with bollards at one end and a chicane at the other. Would be hard to get a cargo bike through.Lane with no barrierVery narrow cycle path which is just a painted line on a road.Cycle track ends at junction with no marked crossing

Yesterday evening in #Sligo there were 4 cars parked fully on the pavement on O 'Connell street. This morning one was parked outside the Yeats building. Why spend money on brautiful paving and allow it to be abused this way. #pavmentParking #activeTravel
