Extension to Middlesbrough protected cycle lane set to be scrapped due to safety concerns Rethink comes after pedestrian and cycling injuries on part of route already open cycling
The planned second phase of a protected cycle route in Middlesbrough is set to be scrapped due to safety concerns following several incidents in which pedestrians have been injured after tripping on the Orcas that, together with wands, nark out the lane.
The rider, Paul Harris, needed stitches above an eyebrow and sustained grazes and a bruised collarbone after his crash, the website says. “I halted plans for a further extension of the cycle lane,” he said. “It’s officially been paused but there is no timescale to reintroduce it. “I fully support Andy's decision, as leader of the council, to take the right decisions as he sees fit for both local businesses and the people of Middlesbrough.”
