The shared footway alongside the A8 approaching the Red Smiddy Roundabout.

The shared footway alongside the A8 between Bishopton and Renfrew, passing a farm. This had quite a bit of grit on the footway and could do with a sweep.

A cycle slip for leaving the carriageway and joining the shared footway. An excellent example of how to provide for this manoeuver, but somewhat redundant in this case when there has been a shared footway along the other side of the road … [more]

The shared footway alongside the A8 heading away from the new M8 junction. The shared footway on the opposite side comes to an end and a dropped kerb crossing is provided. There is also a slip for joining that shared footway from the … [more]

Shared footways alongside the A8 at the new M8 motorway junction for Dargavel.

This section of the A8 between Bishopton and Renfrew has shared footways on both sides, around and between the various roundabouts associated with Dargavel, which, if nothing else, means a choice of crossing locations if traffic happens to … [more]

The path from the new bridge across the Black Cart Water continues for a short distance on this side of the A8 before crossing to the other side where it continues all the way to the edge of Bishopton.

Traffic on the Barnwell Street Bridge. The road bends sharply to go around a Glasgow Airport car park.

Wright Street becomes Barnwell Street, and ahead is shared-use footway which carries on across the new bridge across the White Cart and connects with similar provision on the road network alongside Glasgow Airport.

Approaching the end of the Hillington Park cycle route shared footway on Mossland Drive. The section beyond Huntly Road is a dead-end and does not connect with anything. It does not even have a dropped kerb from which to join the … [more]

A closer look at the cycle crossing waiting area on Abbbotsinch Road.

It is without explanation, but I believe the thing on the left is to allow cyclists to pull in and wait to cross to the shared footway on the right. See also #170247. The ban on right turns presumably didn't take into account the route of … [more]

The A8 carriageway shut at the Barrangary Roundabout for various works. The roadworks on the Bishopton side were passable with care for pedestrians and cyclists.

A shared-use footway along one side of Barrangary Road, connecting Dargavel to the A8.

A shared-use footway along one side of Barrangary Road. Strictly speaking, there shouldn't be 30mph signs here since the road has street lighting.

The only sign that indicates that the cycle route is on the footway, and these two didn't realise that the route went straight on here rather than following the road around the bend.

This shared-use footway is far too narrow, but space on road wasted with hatching! No dropped kerb for crossing side street either.

Line-segregated shared-use footway in Hillington Park, with Give Way markings at unused road-mouth

Line-segregated shared-use footway in Hillington Park. The route switches sides ahead (see #47473) but this raised junction traffic calming would make a better location to cross, since motor traffic slows down here.

Shared-use footway switches sides, close to roundabout, but why not cross at the raised junction traffic calming (see #47474) a short distance along the road, where cars are slowing down?
