I'm must be approaching around the 1,500 mark of times I've crossed that bridge, I cycle over that bridge twice a day, every week day.
It used to be absolutely brilliant untill recent "cycle infrastructure" works have taken place on the north side. It's now pretty miserable, especially for motorists.
I got away for a long time without being effected by TFL's desire to mindlessly pour money into developers pockets but unfortunately this now may be the second part of my commute which is going to be made worse for me as a cyclist after the diabolical rearrangement of Elephant & Castle.

Do you use that bridge? As people have said upthread, it (was) one of the nicest bridges to cycle over until recent roadworks clogged it up. There was plenty of room for vehicles to overtake, and a wide bus lane leading to a nice, wide ASL northbound.
I'd therefore class it as a quieter area where painted lanes were doing a great job.
