• Whilst we're on the subject of confusing junctions - Can someone tell me how to turn left onto Southwark Bridge from the Cycle Superhighway on Upper Thames Street when I'm heading west?

    So far the only method I've worked out is to turn right onto the pavement and loop around so I join the queue of cyclists waiting at the cycle lights from Queen Street. But that involves crossing the oncoming cycle lane so I have no clue what I'd do if there was a lot of oncoming cycle traffic.

  • I think that is the expected action - it's what I do heading east too. that or sit in the new bit of space between the highway and the road, but that feels a bit exposed to me.

  • Yeah, I did the second option once or twice too, but as I couldn't actually see a light whilst I was waiting I had no idea whether I was crossing against a light, particularly the ped crossing at the end of the bridge. It's not a massive inconvenience to do the Queen Street loop, but it just seems bizarre to me that the system is so prescriptive in some sections and just leaves you to guess in others. Maybe they'll add a bunch of signs once they've finished the whole thing.
