• Apart from the one by Lots Rd/Cremorne Rd, which is signed (strangely) as a shared path, and usually much faster than turning right from Lots Rd onto the embankment.

    The crossing isn't part of NCN4. The NCN4 arrow directs you along the pavement next to the river as that section is a shared use path (although too narrow to use if you want to make good progress):-

  • I always wondered how that was intended to be used - does NCN4 stay on the pavement up to that nasty courtesy crossing at Battersea Bridge?

    Anyway, people on Cremorne Road really are much more likely to let you out to turn right there, than at the junction with Lots Road, which is nice.

    Yep, and NCN4 continues past Battersea Bridge on the pavement next to the river all the way past Chelsea Bridge up to the turn off for Lupus St. It's my running commute route and I rarely see any cyclists on the bit between Lots Rd and Battersea Bridge.

    You can see it all if you zoom in enough on http://www.opencyclemap.org

    But I regularly use it coming the other way commuting home to avoid the snarled up traffic by the Albert Bridge junction. (I join NCN4 on the pavement coming Westbound by the Royal Hospital Grounds, go under Albert Bridge and then rejoin the road coming up to the Battersea Bridge junction).

    Yep, although the cyclists who do this rarely look to their left when they try and merge in with everyone who was already on Cremorne road. Minor problem though...
