And where they are more likely to be seen by the lorry and bus drivers.
If drivers park all along the cs2 and cyclists are forced into the lane they may be less at risk
a. because they'll be visible and
b. drivers will be less attempted to punish the riders who aren't in the cycle lane
win-win
Granted, further along the CS2 this may be applicable, and is certainly how I ride.
But having to move around a stationary vehicle, into a single lane already full of vehicles coming off the roundabout at speed, is not ideal.
Ordinarily I'd use the road rather than the CS2 over the roundabout, but due to the light sequence, this isnt always possible, espeically if the roundabout is already full of large vehicles waiting for the green to proceed west.
