It looks like @StockportMBC PARC strategy (pedestrian area reallocated to car) is going ahead. I'm not convinced reallocating what little pedestrian space there is to cars is the best strategy. But the council seem convinced it's the best … [more]
A brand new cycleway, so what do Stockport Council do? Erect three barriers on the entrance ramp. For....reasons. There are no barriers on the brand new road alongside it.

The diabolically bad Dean Lane cycleway. The route is fine. The width is fine. But the dropped entrances to private driveways aren't necessary (Dutch entrance kerbs should be used). The real problem though is just how steep the dropped … [more]

Love to have to navigate 3 lots of these when I can hear the engine noise of speeding drivers on the parallel dual carriageway. https://t.co/wHY4vnImL5
This is too narrow for too long, access to the local rail network is across the road, no footway on the other side and traffic too fast to easily step in the road
This is already a no access to motor vehicles but is used as a cut through. Should be a “quietway” one way or blocked halfway
Another stupid, pointless obstruction on a brand new path. Why is this low barrier necessary, when bollards will do the same job?
An utterly pointless piece of fence that forces everyone through a narrow gap, in the middle of a global pandemic. How stupid is this?
Now the A5145 has been connected to the A6, George’s Road can be made walking and cycling only. It has a low bridge and nothing requiring access. Would reduce the number of movements on the roundabout so that the design could be improved … [more]
This road is very narrow. Cars and HGV users drive up and down this road very fast. Many pedestrians use the pavements. They are at risk. Also groups from school on corner travel up to the church at the top of the street. The children and … [more]

Need space for safe cycling between Sanderling road junction on the A627 and the Torkington road junction. This is a good way for cyclists to get from the suburbs out to rural lanes and the Middlewood way, but is currently vey busy and … [more]
Three metal chicanes installed at a cost of £3,000 which are dangerous and obstructive to general use of the provided path and create three unnecessary additional conflict points. If there was a real issue here, the path should’ve been … [more]
Signs reminding drivers of safe passing distances when passing cyclists would help along whole stretch of A6
More barriers, on a brand new surface cycle route. Why do cyclists have to put up with this rubbish?
Someone has installed some very silly and pointless chicanes on this section of the A555 cycle path. These will do nothing but frustrate legitimate users. There's plenty of room to widen the path but despite this being very clear guidance … [more]
This road is easily wide enough to have a segregated cycle path on each side of the road. Which would make it a useful link between Stockport and Bredbury
Although technically separate from the pavement there is little to differentiate the cycle path here heading east. Heading west it is only paint. Ajusting this so that the space was used for a wand orca segregated path on both sides of the … [more]
The cycle lane abruptly ends here with no obvious way back on to the road. Providing a better way back into the road would be helpful
Lot of fast moving traffic, loads of heavy goods vehicles. Poor access, intermittent shared path. The paths here are very wide - easily enough room to put in proper on-road cycle lane each side.
Very narrow road due to bridge and a lot of heavy goods traffic. Improve access on/off the shared use path Northbound. Only option Southbound would be lights...
The path under the bridge here is always full of deep gravel, making the route needlessly harder. If it was swept this would make a nice quiet route in / out of Romiley
Joining the cycleway here at a pedestrian crossing is difficult and non obvious. It should merge in from the road to make the transition simple
Exiting the cycle path here is horrible, it requires looking behind you for fast moving vehicles while also being aware of vehicles in front turning into the road. Ideally the radius of this junction should be reduced and the cycle way … [more]
The cycle path here is non obvious and looks like a pavement. It should be updated to have either a coloured surface dressing or other measures to make it more obvious as a cycle path
There is on street parking here when the houses have large drives. This could be converted to an uphill protected cycleway for people travelling between Stockport and Bredbury
The on street parking here makes the footway really narrow. Removing them would make space for a wider footpath / parklets
The high street is too narrow to allow for a proper segregated cycle lane. Make the high street a one way system for all traffic, one lane for cars etc and the other lane for bikes
There is a drainage problem on the road crossing here. Every time it rains, the road fills with water.
Very poorly designed, piecemeal cycleway along Didsbury road should be made into modern segregated route for entire length.
Replace all gates on this section of shared-use path to allow mobility scooters, prams and non-drop bar bicycles to pass.
Remove poorly-designed gates and install barriers meeting modern standards allowing mobility scooters, prams and cyclists to pass.
High-speed curve of Station Rd is dangerous for cyclists but forms part of NCN. Segregation and/or speed control needed.
Dedicated cycle lane needed on Stockport Rd West to connect Osborne Street with Vernon Park / Newbridge Lane.
Make a radical change to styal road with a one way system for both cars and bikes. The road is currently too narrow to put in a proper segregated bike lane.
Pavement on Stockport bound side is too narrow. In some places there is insufficient room for 2 people to pass each other.
The pavement on the northbound side is wide enough to allow a joint cycleway/footpath. This would help southbound cyclists because of the bend and difficulty in turning right into Bruntwood Lane.
Cycle lane needed as road is narrow and number of pedestrian crossings make it more so ad therefore drivers crowd cyClists

There is no crossing on Ack Lane which is a busy road. Putting a toucan crossing in here would help pedestrians, but also cyclists could have a continuous route from Pownall Green School through to Hillbrook Road and along Kits Moss Lane … [more]
Make this footpath into a cycleway so that there would be a continuous cycle route from Cheadle Hulme to Heald Green avoiding Etchels Road. It would also give access to the existing North South cycle path to Brentwood Park.
Close the right turn carriageway at the Farmers Arms and put in a segregated cycle lane along the A560 to keep cyclists safe. The shared path is not very useful for commuting cyclists.
This road is not pleasant to cycle on. Perhaps the speed limit could be reduced or a dedicated cycleway installed?
Marple Road should have a dedicated cycle lane, or where the path is wide enough a shared cycle and pedestrian route.
The walking route from Offerton to Marple Hall School for students is via a path which is too narrow in places and not helped when bushes are too overgrown.
Make a proper cyleway to link Bramhall Park with Cheadle Hulme village and thus create an opportunity for residents ( and others) to cycle safely into Cheadle Hulme for shopping/recreation and station
2 schools on this road and it is used as a rat run. Parking around the schools creates dangers for both walkers and cyclists.
The A6MARR Cycleway needs a crossing installed on Hall Moss Lane. I don't think the designer must have realised how busy and fast the road is at this point!
This footpath is due to be upgraded to bridleway (and presumably paved) as part of the Woodford housing development. Will link the estate to Lostock Hall Road Poynton and train station off road. Can this be bought forward now?
The new A555 link road from the A6 to Manchester Airport is a step in the right direction even though it is too narrow for easy side by side cycling/walking. However, There as are no lights at all this makes it difficult for those who use … [more]
Road humps or on way system along elms road. currently used as a rat run from shaw road to heaton moor road at rush hour especially since road humps were placed along Buckingham Road
The whole of the A6 needs a dedicated cycle lane similar to that on oxford road. Many people would cycle along the route in and out of Manchester.
Narrow pavement all along Mauldeth Road means people walking on Road to maintain social distance. Lots of cars speed up and down this road.
OK probably just a *little* bit controversial, but shows ambition. ☺The A555 here is not busy enough to justify being a dual carriageway. Even before lockdown it could be deserted, even at rush hour. Why not close one carriageway, at the … [more]
Segregated cycleway needed to link up High Peak to Stockport/Manchester cycle routes, particularly for cycle commuters
The road and pavement need resurfacing. If it were better, people could walk or cycle here rather than the significantly more dangerous New Moor Lane.
This is a really dangerous bit of road for cyclists. The road is narrow, steep, with a blind brow to the bridge. There is about 1 metre of designated cycle path that is no use at all. This is a route children use to walk and cycle to … [more]
The pavement is too narrow and the bushes overgrown. There is not enough room for 1 person and the road is too busy to step out into.
