Bollards don't need to be ugly. These bollards are disguised as novelty pencils outside Ludworth Primary School.

Cycle crossings alongside the new A555 bypass. Not yet complete in this picture.

Cycle route continues west between the highway and a sports ground. I suspect the land behind the fence will soon become overgrown.

Two-can crossing. This was not set up! I saw these two cans there and took the photo and left them there. It was only a few seconds after I took the photo that I realised this was a play on 'Toucan Crossing'.
