Cycle Path

Location: Tollbar End, Coventry (England, United Kingdom)

Whilst on my drizzly walk this morning I also came across the cycle path symbol.
Cycles are very Coventry, and I do believe it was a big feature of the Coventry By-Pass, that it had a Cycle Path all along it's length.

Sadly, it was a big feature of the ring road that was never implemented. According to this page: www.cbrd.co.uk/indepth/coventryringroad/history.shtml the cycle path idea went out the window when they decided to put the ring road up on stilts.

These days cycling across Coventry involves constantly finding routes around the ring road.
