• Is that because the cars have green for a left turn that cuts across both cycle lanes? I've nearly been hit twice there by taxis who decided "F this I'm turning left to go down to embankment" without realising that it was a red light for them on that left turn, even though it as green for straight on.

    I understand that that whole cycle lane is likely to increase the number of cyclists, but personally I preferred it before. I think I'll start using southwark or waterloo bridge.

  • Yeah that left turn has nearly caught me out before.

    They've been messing around with the bridge and up to Farringdon for so long I can't actually remember what it used to be like.

    On the whole the new lanes are great - but you feel like a second class road user when cars etc. get longer on green.
