| 174359 |  | NCN75 at Bargeddie a bit safer to navigate after we cleared overhanging bushes and litter picked on Sunday. @IanArms20264931 @srob1991 #NCN75 t.co/lFVc9MQKb8 | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 174048 |  | Harthill Services footbridge A "combined pedestrian/cycleway which not only complies with current standards, but also provides an aesthetically pleasing gateway structure that will encourage the use of the recently extensively redeveloped site". https://www.transport.gov.scot/projects/m8-harthill-footbridge-replacement/m8-harthill-footbridge-replacement/ See also www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3509507 | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 173214 |  | Sign at Banknock | Route sign: Infrastructure routesigns |
| 172415 |  | Bike repair station at UH Wishaw off main entrance road. Includes a pump and repair tools. | Other: Infrastructure general |
| 172414 |  | Gates across path off Forrestburn Rd (with desire line next to them). | Obstruction: Infrastructure obstructions |
| 172413 |  | Underpass from Exeter St into Cecil Park. Walked bike through as quite overgrown with glass in places. | Other: Infrastructure general |
| 172412 |  | Visitor cycle parking stands after entrance to Admin building. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
| 163494 |  | Dual carriageway for local access. Reduce to a single lane in both directions and set aside the other lane for cycle and walking. Between Moodiesburn and Stepps. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 163493 |  | Rat run next to a school access. It's an accident waiting to happen. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 148738 |  | A dangerous road crossing for cyclists on the tow path. Road traffic needs to be slowed down on the blind bend. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 146417 |  | A cycle way is needed from Kilsyth up to Croy, avoiding the busy, fast current road with lots of tight bends. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 139197 |  | Road is a 30 however cars regularly race up it way above that making cycling here dangerous | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 139126 |  | The road is very narrow and the only way as a cyclist into Glasgow city | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 133448 |  | The pavement is used by both pedestrians & cyclists, it’s too narrow for safe usage | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 132995 |  | Segregated cycleway should be created to allow a safe link between Chryston and Lenzie | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 132824 |  | Segregated cycleway to allow safer cycling from Moodiesburn in to Glasgow centre | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 132822 |  | Segregated cycleway should be created to allow a safe link between Chryston and Lenzie | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 132820 |  | One lane of the carriageway could be covered off and allocated for active travel. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 132815 |  | B806 from Gartcosh to Glasgow is not safe for cycling due to twisty roads, cars speeding and lack of width for cars to safely overtake. A cycleway, preferably separate from the road, through the fields, would be safe and could also be used for pedestrians as there is not currently a footpath for the full length. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 132809 |  | Pavement needed from Gartcosh to Glenboig. There is no safe walkway between both villages and with more houses due to be built this is required. | Track: Problem track |
| 132796 |  | Cycleway on pavement ends here forcing cyclists on to one of the most dangerous and congested parts of the road to carry on their route. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 132795 |  | Cars constantly parked up on pavements making it difficult for people in wheelchairs and on foot to get by. | Track: Problem track |
| 132790 |  | The canal path on both sides is too narrow for two sets of people to pass each other on foot or on bikes with any form of social distancing even if they are in single file. It also badly needs upgraded. | Track: Problem track |
| 132219 |  | The field and hedging is regularly overgrown forcing pedestrians to walk on the road. Especially dangerous for school children and parentd with more than one child and pushchair users. The soil banking encroaches on the pavement making it impossible to walk unless in single file. | Track: Problem track |
| 132155 |  | The path ends here and should run the length of this road to allow walkers and cyclists to continue to the Strathkelvin Railway path the pavement is overgrown and cars speed here regularly making walking on the road very dangerous | Track: Problem track |
| 132149 |  | The bushes need cut back to the fence to widen path and allow passing. The path has Ben very well used but is overgrown with bushes | Track: Problem track |
| 131342 |  | Existing path network of gravel and rough tarmac between Pather, Dimsdale, Overtown and Gowkthrapple could be made converted to a safer, cleaner cycle and walking path between the 4 communities. Improves links to Greenhead Moss and Clyde Walkway for all 4. Prevents fly tipping if entrance/exit bollards fitted - similar to new Wishawhill/Pump Track path. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 131315 |  | Strathclyde Park has a 2 way road running through the entire park, West to East, which is closed to vehicles due to Covid19 restrictions. This road should be made one-way only and the other carriageway given over to cyclists as a 2 way, segregated cycle lane. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 131243 |  | No pavement linking from here to Glenboig Create a walkway path to link up since the M73 has cut the old walkway “miners” path off to create a network of paths It would be good to go for a walk in a circular route path linking the villages up | Track: Problem track |
| 130743 |  | Parking by vans on the central reservation obscuring vision for pedestrians and road users at a busy junction creating a hazard, bollards or a fence around the central island needed would obviate this hazard. | Track: Problem track |
| 130329 |  | Cycle lanes needed all along Forest road to protect users from high speed traffic | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 130319 |  | Cycle lanes needed to protect users from high speed traffic | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 130316 |  | Ramp needed for prams/ wheelchairs / cycles so that users can reach Cumbernauld railway station from Abronhill , | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 130306 |  | Cycleway along A71 from Shotts to Newmains - Path already exists! | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 130304 |  | A ramp for cyclysts / prams / wheelchair users is needed so that users can access the footpath from Chapelton Road | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 130299 |  | Cyceleway as a link to NCN 75 and offers a safer route off the Benhar Road | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 130292 |  | Cyclway needed to allow safe access to shops by local residents . Crossing should have pedestrian controlled lights for safety . | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 130289 |  | A pavement is needed along Condorrat ring road to prevent pedestrians having to become lost in a labyrinth of housing when trying to walk to the centre of Cumbernauld . | Track: Problem track |
| 130283 |  | Continuous footpath from Mollinsburn bridge comes to an abrupt halt , forcing pedestrians to cross the road . There should be a pavement all the way to the B8O2 so that the public can safely walk to the shops . | Track: Problem track |
| 130278 |  | The A80 is four lanes wide and an invitation for drivers to use this at high speed but this is no longer a main thoroughfare. Reducing this to one lane each way would reduce pollution , increase safety and promote exercise without any reduction in traffic flow . | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 130270 |  | This pavement between Moodiesburn and Chryston is overgrown and barely two feet wide in places . The road is unlit and often waterlogged presenting a real hazard to walkers especially during evenings . The 30mph speed limit is routinely ignored by drivers. | Track: Problem track |
| 130260 |  | Pavement crosses busy dual carriageway to overgrown path on opposite side of dual carriageway . Small children struggle to cross busy lanes with speeding cars approaching . Unsafe . A similar unsafe crossing is needed at Moodiesburn lights . No pedestrian light button available. For safety a pavement needs to be constructed on the Northern side of the carriageway way allowing a safe loop for the many walkers. | Track: Problem track |
| 130254 |  | Pavement stops abruptly forcing pedestrians some with prams / wheelchairs to cross busy main road on main bus route to Glasgow at a blind bend where traffic regularly exceeds the speed limit. Footpath has to be continuous on the southern side to Mollinsburn to ensure safety . Northern pavement is also overgrown , narrow and blocked by cars parking on the pavement . | Track: Problem track |
| 130241 |  | Cycleway needs to be marked with sign for illegal parking . The whole of Mollinsburn village is plagued with cars parking across pavements and into roadspace on main bus routes . This is due to several motor sales/ repairs establishments failing to respect right of way . | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 130213 |  | Myvot road is used by speeding cars for car meets at this carpark. Unsafe for walkers and cyclists . Excessive littering at car park. Barriers erected across car park would solve the problems. . | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
| 130193 |  | Luggie river Cycleway / walkway ends abruptly . Ten yards of bushes need to be cleared so that the cycleway / path has continuity with Chapelton Road . | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 127028 |  | There is a great shared footpath/cycle way but it can be quite busy and it is not easy to distance from others on it as the path is quite narrow forcing walkers or cyclist into the scrub or road. It is the main bike commute route into Glasgow and we want to keep using it. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126829 |  | The pavement near the school / outside my house is in a dreadful state. It needs relaid - to benefit parents going to school ( with prams) and people in a wheelchair outdoors. Children going to school by bicycle too would benefit if part of a widened cycle route. | Track: Problem track |
| 126683 |  | Bikes and pedestrians trying to squeeze into the same narrow spaces all along the A80 | Track: Problem track |
| 126559 |  | For walkers and cyclists, continuing the Strathkelvin Railway Path on tour of old railway (instead of steep climb south on Avenuehead Road with no escape for cyclists if cars pass both directions at once). Exit could be at/near old works on Drumcavel Rd opposite Drumcavel Quarry. Then cleanup/improvement of pavement under M73, joining up with path access (fly tipping hotspot!) to Glenboig Village Park. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126557 |  | Could be more pram friendly | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126555 |  | Would like it more pram friendly | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126548 |  | With all the new houses, adding pavement (at least on southern side of road ) instead of uneven grass verges from motorway bridge to Chestnut Grove would give residents of new housing off Johnston Road direct access to Gartcosh LNR without having to use J2a of M73, or having to walk on Road surface of Johnston (not Johnstone!) Road | Track: Problem track |
| 126541 |  | Existing pavement by A752 is encroached on by accumulation of grass and dirt all the way from Gartcosh to Drumpellier (probably also continuing on towards Bargeddie). In addition, it is often used by cyclists (understandably given the heavy traffic and high speeds of vehicles using the road. A cycleway or Lane and perhaps speed restrictions would improve safety for all road users: pedestrian, cycles and motor vehicles. | Track: Problem track |
| 126538 |  | Natural pathway needs maintenance and improvements for massively increased public use and awareness of this area. Designed and maintained the same as the rest of the seven lochs area, | Track: Problem track |
| 126526 |  | A,cycle path will allow walkers and cyclists to enjoy exercise and control speeding on this road | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126524 |  | Too many people cycling on the pavement The A80 from Mollinsbuen ti Steps is perfect for cycle path | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126477 |  | No pavement here until you get to the motorway overbridge - very poor | Track: Problem track |
| 126470 |  | A through link here from the Moor Park (one of the few remaining green spaces and play areas) would open up the area to residents on the Main St side of Chryston - currently it’s a long way round as there is no connecting route. Would also improve links to public transport as most buses only go along Cumbernauld road - very few go along Main St. | Track: Problem track |
| 126468 |  | This stretch of the A80 could easily accommodate a proper cycle path alongside the pedestrian pavement. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
| 126465 |  | Pavement is far too narrow in places along this whole section - needs addressed along with traffic calming. | Track: Problem track |
| 126459 |  | The path it not wide enough for wheelchairs to pass. Also a droped kerb would allow for wheelchair users and residents with mobility scooters to cross safely | Track: Problem track |
| 126456 |  | Pathway from Peathill avenue to Burnbrae road is inconsistant. Fine when traffic was quieter but, not ideal as it returns to normal | Track: Problem track |
| 115520 |  | Coatdyke train station cycle parking and ramp, to left of steps (quite steep). | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
| 113115 |  | The trackbed of an old railway, alongside the A752 at Drumpellier Country Park. This could potentially be made into a path for the Seven Lochs Trail instead of using the footway of the A752. At this point, the trackbed crosses a bridge over a stream. Viewing opposite direction from #113114. | Track: Infrastructure track |
| 113113 |  | The southern entrance to Drumpellier Country Park on the A752. | Track: Infrastructure track |
| 113112 |  | The Seven Lochs Trail turns from the A752 into Drumpellier Country Park. The signs here make no mention of the Seven Lochs Trail. There is a dropped kerb here, but it is partly blocked by a mangled railing installed across it. | Route sign: Infrastructure routesigns |
| 113111 |  | The footway of the A752 was supposed to be upgraded to be part of NCN route 755 south of Gartcosh, but this has still to happen. However, it is now part of the Seven Lochs Trail and still has obstructions like this boundary sign post. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 108683 |  | No signage for Cumbernauld's cycle route 2a to Abronhill near the Palacerigg Country Park visitors' centre. | Track: Infrastructure track |
| 108682 |  | A signpost within Palacerigg Country Park, but no mention of Cumbernauld's cycle route 2a to Abronhill which starts around here. | Route sign: Problem routesigns |
| 108681 |  | The entrance to Palacerigg Country Park, where Cumbernauld's cycle route 1 starts. There are no signs for the Cumbernauld cycle network within the park, although there is a map (see #102067). | Route sign: Infrastructure routesigns |
| 108680 |  | Cycling on Blackbog Road, which is part of a series of quiet country roads between Palacerigg and Moodiesburn. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 108679 |  | Negotiating the path down from Cumbernauld Road to join the Strathkelvin Railway Path. Still as narrow and awkward as ever. | Track: Problem track |
| 108640 |  | Pedestrian killed in a collision with a car driven by her father's cousin. www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-48473370 | Road environment: Event road |
| 103375 |  | The Wester Way alongside Phase 4 of the Bishopbriggs Relief Road. The lampposts have been planted in the path rather than alongside it (as has been done on the adjacent road), but other than this, it is built to a reasonable standard, and has a good view! | Cycleway: Good practice cycleways |
| 103090 |  | Private access road, gravel | Track: Problem track |
| 102097 |  | The footway of McNeil Drive at Eurocentral has now been upgraded to shared use. However, there were no signs on the wide footways around the B799 Bo'ness Road roundabouts at the adjacent motorway junction which, according to the M8/A8 upgrade plans, were to be shared use also. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 102096 |  | A Cumbernauld Cycle Network map outside Greenfaulds railway station. | Route sign: Good practice routesigns |
| 102071 |  | A fairly smooth unbounded track through the forestry at Dunsyston, avoiding a busier road through Gartness on the way to Chapelhall. But could equally go on towards Salsburgh. | Track: Infrastructure track |
| 102070 |  | A rough, stony track across a former opencast mining site, with a bit of a climb towards the end, but more direct than the road around the site. | Track: Infrastructure track |
| 102069 |  | An assortment of barriers at the entrance to Stanrigg Memorial Park, so just as well the gate had been left open! | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 102068 |  | A path with a decent surface linking Greengairs to Wattston and Stanrigg Memorial Park. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 102067 |  | A map of the Cumbernauld Cycle Network at the Palacerigg Country Park, right outside the visitors' centre. | Route sign: Good practice routesigns |
| 102066 |  | The alternative to #102065. | Cycle parking: Infrastructure cycleparking |
| 102065 |  | The cycle parking at Palacerigg Country Park. | Cycle parking: Problem cycleparking |
| 102064 |  | The presumed shared-use footway alongside the road up to Palacerigg Country Park doesn't have a dropped kerb opposite Tannoch Road, making it difficult to join from the side road. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 102057 |  | The cycleway between Eurocentral and Shawhead is open at last! | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 100123 |  | A single uncontrolled sliproad crossing with 'Cyclists Dismount' signs (see #51057) has been replaced with two uncontrolled sliproad crossings, without signs. No attempt to line up the footway with the crossings. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 100122 |  | Extremely poor finishing at the expansion joint at the north end of the Eurocentral bridge over the M8 motorway. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 100121 |  | The remains of the buffer strip (see also #51059) separating the shared-use footway from the carriageway can just be seen. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 100120 |  | Another set of pedestrian crossings to revert to the west side of the A8 Eurocentral junction, since there is no footway around the western side of the roundabout anymore. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 100119 |  | As with #100118, the crossing of the A8 is a pedestrian crossing. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 100118 |  | Despite the toucan crossing at #100117, all of the other crossings at the A8 Eurocentral junction are pedestrian crossings. It's almost as if they have forgotten that this is/was a shared use route. | Road environment: Problem road |
| 100117 |  | A split toucan crossing on Townhead Avenue, Eurocentral, with an HGV combo stopped some way forward of the stopline on the far side. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 100116 |  | A split toucan crossing across Townhead Avenue at Eurocentral. I don't know which direction the 'Cyclists Dismount' sign applies to. The kid on the bike took no notice of it. | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
| 100115 |  | The cyclepath doesn't run directly to the toucan crossing, necessitating sharp turns, when the desireline is across open land. | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 100114 |  | The M8 cycle path approaching Eurocentral. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 99882 |  | The cyclepath, A8 dual carriageway and M8 motorway approaching Eurocentral. I'm sure it would have been possible to design a more economical A8 road layout at this point. The road to the right is a field/land access with next to no traffic to give way to. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 99881 |  | The cyclepath and westbound A8 cross the M8 motorway. | Cycleway: Infrastructure cycleways |
| 99880 |  | The Carnbroe foot and cycle bridge over the A8 dual carriageway. Why no direction sign? I know where it leads to, but that's not the point. | Route sign: Problem routesigns |
