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]
The shared footway of the A8 crossing over the M8 motorway. The bridge parapets seemed surprisingly low, considering this is used as an excuse for 'Cyclists Dismount' signs at many locations.
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]

Path from Bishopton station into Dargavel, and what appears to be a road that has yet to be completed.
Long-term temporary closure of the northbound (west side) cycleway and footway on the Erskine Bridge. All to use the path on the east side.

A split toucan crossing across Abbotsinch Road to cross to the path to the bascule bridge on Inchinnan Road.
The new bridge across the Black Cart Water, alongside the busy A8 Greenock Road. The new bridge uses a single span to cross the river.

Traffic on the Barnwell Street Bridge. The road bends sharply to go around a Glasgow Airport car park.
The Barnwell Street Bridge has been open since August 2022, and has a shared-use footway on the southern side. There is very little traffic on the road since it serves only a handful of industrial premises in what used to be the end of … [more]
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.
The carriageway of Wright Street has a temporary fence across the full width of it, so cyclists are forced onto the footway to get around it, but the footway beyond is shared-use anyway.

Discriminatory blocking of the route to the Arkleston bridge across the M8 motorway, with tyres being placed over the bollards, narrowing the gaps between them considerably.
The view from Gleniffer Braes Country Park. The path through here is of variable quality, ranging from old asphalt to unmade worn path across the ground, and one section at the bridge over the Gleniffer Burn was too rocky to cycle. There is … [more]
Refurbished and reopened bridge across the White Cart in Paisley. This will form part of the Paisley to Renfrew cycle route being built this year.
More barriers at the foot of the ramp of the motorway footbridge, making 12 half-width panels to navigate around in total.

The footbridge between Cockels Loan and Arkleston Road over the M8 motorway. The ramps have multiple barriers to slalom around. A desire line is developing in the grass from the north east.
A nasty roundabout to cross to get from the Hillington Road industrial estate side road to the residential part of Hillington.

Footways on both sides of Mossland Road are signed as cycle routes, but the far side has the wrong type of sign for the type of cycle route. The footway then just ends in a bush. No dropped kerb to cross.
The Hillington Park cycle route shared footway is on this side of the road, but the footway across the road now has a dividing line along it. Unlike #170674, the crossing is shared for both walking and cycling, and features a right-angle … [more]
