New path to access south of Hairmyres hospital site from Strathtay Ave (update to #113723). Soft segregation around outhouse is quite tight but protects from parking and has gaps to join to/from road.
Paths around the north side of the Malls Mire nature reserve are less formal than those around the centre.
The desire line seen in #113801 comes over the mound and onto the path seen to the right of this picture. If there is no special reason to retain the mound, it should be removed and a proper path provided as a through route from the East Ki ... [more]
The path from Logie Park splits to form a triangular junction with the East Kilbride railway path. Left for the town centre, right for towards Kingsgate.
The path to Logie Park heads to the right, but there is a desire line over the mound straight ahead to get to the railway path. See also #113803 looking from the opposite direction.
Paths connecting from the East Kilbride railway path to Halfmerke Primary School, Logie Park, and Maxwell Drive.
The East Kilbride railway path near Dunblane Drive (to the left) and Halfmerke Primary School (to the right).
The start of the railway path section of NCN756, leaving East Kilbride, at St Bryde Lane. The traffic calming strips present a hazard to turning cyclists and could easily be bypassed with a more convenient access onto the path to the left. ... [more]
The path parallel to Whitemoss Avenue and then Churchill Avenue, approaching the underpass beneath Whitemoss Avenue.
A new 'No Entry' sign for the resurfaced cycle off-ramp from Churchill Avenue at the Murray Roundabout, but no longer any signs for local routes 2 and 3. So close to the town centre, but no wayfinding.
The path seen being widened in #107574, and now officially shared use, alongside Churchill Avenue in East Kilbride.
The Queensway footway changes from asphalt to slabs, and shimmies to the side slightly. The drainage is poor.
Path junctions outside Westwood Road underpass from Dunedin Park. Duncanrig Secondary School is to the right.
The Mossneuk cycleway changes from unsegregated to line segregated path, although it isn't signed as such, for the final section to Newlands Road. The crossing footpath has priority over the cycleway.
The path from Queensway to Tennant Avenue appears to suffer from ponding, and is covered in mud. There's also no easy way onto the carriageway for cyclists due to the parking.
Although the lighting has been replaced in recent years, the path from the bus stop on Queensway to Tennant Avenue (and onwards to Hairmyres Hospital) is narrow, has poor quality paving, and has no dropped kerbs at its crossing with Linwood ... [more]
The Glen Road path, linking Stewartfield Way to actual Glen Road, which leads towards Carmunnock and Glasgow.
Arrotshole Road path climbs up towards the Morrison's supermarket, with other paths connecting at various points.
The motor-traffic-free Arrotshole Road runs alongside the Kittoch Water, right in the middle of the western part of East Kilbride.
The path from Fairfield Place arrives at Arrotshole Road, but the whole area is cluttered with parked vehicles and materials.
The path from Fairfield Place at a car yard, where some vehicles were backed further onto the path than others.
The cycle track from Tantallon Park arrives in Glenluce Terrace, with a street name sign to confirm location for users.
I'm not sure whether this kerb is dropped or not, but the path leads to the ramped footbridge across Kingsway to Burns Park.
A path signed as a cycle access to NCN756, but could do with being a little bit wider. The road at the top, Logie Park, is one way, but there is no sign to tell cyclists this.
The older path connects Highfield Place and The Gateway, while the newer path connects across to NCN756 on the railway path. No signage, but as NCN756 also joins The Gateway, it can be reached by either route for those heading north.
One of East Kilbride's old cycleway and footway combinations, through the underpass connecting Highfield Place and The Gateway.
A path connecting the Stewartfield Way shared footway to a woodland path from where Markethill Road can be accessed.
The view out of the sliproad underpass towards a roundabout and development site. Room for upgrading.
A footway next to the High Common Road/Strathaven Road sliproad. If this was upgraded to a cycleway, there's room to move the path away from the road to give better sightlines into the underpass.
East Kilbride's cycle route 3 continues alongside the A726 to the Calderglen Country Park overflow car park.
The footway and cycleway merge together for the High Common Road sliproad crossing. The 'shared use' sign has completely faded out.
The cycleway merges into the bus stop layby, but the layout could easily be revised within the available space.
Before route 3's path was built, cyclists were expected to return to the carriageway once past the roundabout.
A path across the Blacklaw Drive roundabout and into the Tesco supermarket. There are no signs for East Kilbride cycle route 2 at this roundabout. However, the 'Cyclists Dismount' sign has vanished too.
No signage at this major path junction in St Leonards. The only clue as to which way East Kilbride cycle route 2 goes is the widened path.
Roadworks and building work on Brancumhall Road opposite the road from St Leonards RC Primary School and the Brancumhall Recreation Area.
A dropped kerb in Tannahill Drive blocked by car parking, where the cycle route to Brancumhall joins the carriageway.
The shared footway outside the Alison Lea Medical Centre. I don't know who thought that this would be an adequate design.
The end of the Calderwood Road section of the cycle route to Brancumhall, and some footway parking outside the Alison Lea Medical Centre.
The widened footway on this side of Calderwood Road ends, but not before it has been obstructed by a control cabinet for the toucan crossing.
The Calderwood Road shared footway, with a bus shop, footway parking, and a pinch-point crossing on the road across to a school.
Both paths have cycle signs on them, so possibly could divert if a heavily laden bus pulls up and starts unloading, but otherwise the left path goes directly to the school and the right is for following Calderwood Road.
The original cycle track from the Whitemoss Roundabout joins Calderwood Road, but a new shared-use footway starts and continues to the Alison Lea Health Centre, from where there is a local cycle route extending to Brancumhall.
The cycleway along the Whitemoss Avenue footway (see #107581) is signed into the park and towards Avondale Avenue (and the path with steps in #107573).
I'm hoping this newly marked cycle path alongside Whitemoss Avenue will be widened once the work behind the hoardings has been finished.
Steps on the path between The Centre Roundabout underpass and Avondale Avenue. Avoid this path on a bike.
No barriers at the Livingstone Drive crossing, but potentially vulnerable to obstruction by car parking.
The only barriers I encountered on the Whitehills cycle route, and no signage to say whether the route goes straight ahead to the Queensway underpass or turns right along Strathcona Place towards the Murray Roundabout.
The Whitehills cycle path at the Stroud Road underpass, leading to Whitehills Terrace where cyclists rejoin the carriageway.
The path behind Greenhills Primary School turns towards Quarry Road, but has connections straight ahead for Sycamore Crescent.
A slightly wider path next to Greenhills Primary School, although the lampposts have been planted within the width of the path, making it effectively slightly narrower.
A ramped path retro-fitted next to two and half steps without a banister, creating a slightly complex junction behind the Cedar Drive shop.
