In reply to George.

Hear, hear!!
Where the Christchurch Coastal Pathway crosses the roadway into Scott Park (opposite 28 Main Rd) near Ferrymead Bridge there’s quite an unnecessary bump. There are many more.

The design of the intersection at the corner of Frankleigh/Sparks Rd w Lyttelton Street is poor as one bikes out of town. The bike path along the east side of Lyttelton Street needs to be better indicated to those cycling south. This is being actioned under SnapSendSolve 1310236. Happy to provide more details

Anything near Sockburn Roundabout. When(if-ever) it gets rebuilt, then cycling/walking needs a set of under-tunnels, like the Undertaker.

This is I admit a small problem in the grand scheme of things compared to getting a cycle way out North West and East. However I’d love to see council do a better job or curb transitions, especially now with a baby, those curb transitions mean I will have to slow to a crawl. It’s strange as it seems to be so random where you find nice smooth transitions and ones that send a massive jolt up your spine.
