Consultation has just opened on proposed changes to the cycle lane down Priory Lane towards Richmond Park:

https://haveyoursay.citizenspace.com/wa ... iory-lane/

Proposal is to remove the cycle lane on the footpath, northbound cyclists would have a ‘painted on’ cycle path in the road, southbound cyclists have no provision and have to mingle with the traffic.

It’s a shame that the proposal is reducing cycle provision on such a popular route for cyclists, the lack of decent, segregated cycle lanes is bound to lead to more ‘road rage’ incidents such as the one with Jason Wells from a couple of years ago which happened on this stretch of road.

I encourage anyone who uses the park to give their feedback!

    I think you posted on the wrong forum. Try posting in Road General. This is the track/velodrome forum.
