Three lanes of traffic and no cycle lane, more than enough room to add one, also considering that cycling on the pavement here is banned.

Main access to and through Wimbledon Park for cyclists, including children.

There should be a separate lane for cycles along Windmill Road and all along B272 (Mitcham CR4 and around)

Replace the barrier here (Bennetts Close to Oakleigh Way) with a bollard to allow cycles and mobility scooters through.

Bollards and speeding traffic make very narrow and the vehicles impatient as cyclists going uphill and pass with little regard for safety.

No physically segregated cycle lane between Raynes Park and Wimbledon. Convert painted lines

Tailbacks of cars every morning with little room for cyclists to pass due to the parked cars down each side and large buses/trucks

Cyclists are lumped in with pedestrians on the pavement which is dangerous. The pavement is a worse surface too

TFL need to put proper segregated lanes on the A24 to help key workers get to St Georges Hospital

Extend the Figges Marsh cycle path up to Tooting

Can the council take space from the front of the school sites to make a wider road for cycling / segregated cycle paths?

I love the idea of a cycle greenway in this park. I dont want my children cycling on a road when they can learn to cycle much more safely in the park.

TFL need to extend Cycle Superhighway 7 from Colliers Wood to Cheam on the A24

Merantun Way is ridiculously wide at Morden Road. Please add cycle lanes, there is plenty of room and its less congested than High Path.

Implement TFLs cycle crossing over Merantun Way. The Wandle Trail is busier than ever with local people and children exercising

Please add cycle lanes to this section of Plough Lane. This will link up with the Wandle Trail and the new cycle paths being built at the stadium. Thank You

Remove the Queens Road restrictions to pedestrianise the town centre. Add cycle lanes to Queens Road up to Haydon's Road.

Roads really busy with traffic

CS7 needs to be 24 hour, so NO PARKING 24hrs a day

Huge number of cyclists coming down this road from the wandle trail and other cycleways but there is virtually no provision for cyclists. It is plenty wide enough to have a segregated cycle lane - which will be particularly important when … [more]

The pavement here is very wide and could accommodate a cycle Lane

Cars are allowed to park on the cycle path. Seems seriously bizarre!!
