Muller Road update

Posted by Kimberly on Wednesday, October 6, 2010

One of our cities unicyclists was complaining last month about some barriers up on the approach to the Muller road bicycle buildout
What about the blockage at the lower end? The side of the lane is marked out with concrete blocks, and there's a bloody great "bear right" sign across the entrance. It's hard to tell whether this is just to prevent cars from parking/driving in the cycle lane, or if the whole thing is supposed to be closed. However, the effect is to make it quite dangerous to enter the lane at that end, even at the relatively low speed and high manoeuvrability of a unicycle. I can't imagine trying to use the lane on two wheels.
Well, we are pleased to note that the works are removed, there is a keep right arrow for cars and an arrow on the ground for bicycles

This provides them with a safe approach once they get past the car transporter parked in the bus stop
Something that appears to be a semi-permanent fixture of the road.
We hope the unicyclists are now happy!
