@joncstone (Future C13) cycle tracks on Clerkenwell Rd opened today. bsky.app/profile/maclondon.b…
Pic=One way to use the new infrastructure in a longer route to connect from northbound C6 branch to C41.
I don't think you've gone via the picturesque Doughty Mews (red box) in a video.

📢 Big News: Romford Road Section H is OPEN! 🚲🚶♂️
We’ve officially hit a major milestone for a greener, safer neighborhood. Section H is now open, featuring dedicated improvements for:
Pedestrians: Wider, safer walkways for a better walking experience.
@joncstone Some bits to be aware of:
Some recent contraflows introduced in Fitzrovia (red circles).
The orange box has one sign (pic 3) <inconvincingly> suggesting that it currently has a contraflow.
I suspect C27 will get realigned via Gt Titchfield St (TfL map uses this).
First section of C43 (red box) is now signed, although might need another day's work to complete the road markings and properly sign the contraflow on Portsea Place.
Drawings also suggest a couple of islands will come at the north end of the 2 contraflow streets.
Purple=C-links
Some suggestions for @FootwaysLondon in Hackney: (1) There are some missing sections of a signed pedestrian/cycle route between Finsbury Park + Victoria Park (delivered for 2012 Olympics) - cycling.waymarkedtrails.org/…
It might be better to map this @FootwaysLondon route via the staggered pelican crossing on Mare St + the south side of St Thomas's Sq. The central cycle track on Mare St wasn't designed/intended to be used as pedestrian refuge island.
@FootwaysLondon Hackney have recently installed a new crossing on Mare St.
(Work was related to the relocation of 2 bus stops.)

All the road changes for the Chatsworth Rd Liveable Neighbourhood have now begun in Hackney. @joncstone @SafeCycleLDN

@joncstone In case you haven't seen them, these are the new monster cycle tracks in Meridian Water, running around 3 sides of the former Ikea.
Mostly built, though not completed yet at the SW corner of IKEA.
Not yet properly marked etc, but the new (raised) C16 crossing on Olympic Park Ave is now 'open'. @joncstone

@joncstone The North Woolwich Rd cycle tracks are basically finished now, BUT...
ALT One parallel crossing has still to get its Belisha installation finished
... the Silvertown Way viaduct will become one-way southbound in a few days for several months, with northbound traffic going via Dock Rd (the 'old road' is already one-way).
Cycling diversion route will be two-way using Dock Rd. A wanded two-way cycle lane has been installed.
ALT Seems that cyclists are meant to mount the western sidewalk here, with pedestrians using the eastern sidewalk up to the toucan crossing further north
Traffic is fully back onto the roadway on Waterden Rd outside the housing development.
Looks like the planned relocation of the disused zebra crossing near Parkes St junction might finally be under way.
@joncstone @richardavsmith @raynoldchow @EdmondChuiHW
The Red Path's joints are really not ageing well just east of where it passes over one of the A12 carriageways.
Presumably they do carry out safety checks on bridges like this? @EdmondChuiHW
Around Connaught Bridge area.
At the surviving roundabout, the parallel crossing has opened. Final layer is not yet in for the rideable two-way cycle track.
2 errant bollard discs have been corrected... but the last one in video is wrong.
@EdmondChuiHW @joncstone @SafeCycleLDN
Resurfacing (?this week) has delivered the planned parallel crossing on Thames Rd (Silvertown) although Belishas needed activating before it actually opens.
Also within the boxed area on the map (at the former roundabout), the junction with North Woolwich Rd has been raised.
@joncstone @SafeCycleLDN You should find some useful bits of cycling updates among what I've posted in the last few days at bsky.app/profile/maclondon.b…
@joncstone @SafeCycleLDN Some more updates, including the big new changes on/around Lambeth Bridge at bsky.app/profile/maclondon.b…
Apparently the end of Bodney Rd will open tomorrow.
Give-way markings at both ends of the narrowed ending and at least 1 big 🚲 logo visible, so I expect this is indeed a modal filter.
Estate fencing went in this week & the works compound is largely cleared out now.
@ripley226
The 2 new-ish Silvertown crossings I previously thought were 'incorrect' pelicans have now had their🚦converted to toucan crossings, though they're not yet operational.

At southern end of Silvertown Way, at least the (pelican) crossing in pic 1 should be a toucan. @NewhamCyclists
I'd also have expected the pelican crossing in pic 2 to be a toucan, especially for southbound cyclists from Dock Rd.
At Tidal Basin Roundabout, some🚦are now operational.
The 3 crossings at the end of Lower Lea Crossing are now (permanent) toucan crossings instead of the inital (temporary) pelican 'dismount' crossings.
ALT In the distance (centre of photo)... the traffic lights for a toucan crossing on the (unopened) Dock Rd are already operational
