Councillor hits back at criticism of his cycle lane comments... but we're still none the wiser about how removing wands (damaged by drivers) and returning to a painted lane would work 'extremely well'... cycling

"This is the first complaint I have received from any of my constituents in relation to parking on Vauxhall Road. So is it unreasonable to suggest that I should not gather evidence to present to council of this complaint?" he told us.

"Also I have evidence of the damage these wagons are doing to the cycle lanes. I have received many complaints from residents and business in the area of how these bike lane were introduced and their usage, and there is a genuine concern for the safety of those residents who use the bike lanes, something that I have raised with Liverpool City Council.

"We have a massive amount of heavy goods wagons heading along commercial road Vauxhall Road and Stanley road being the main gateways into the dock road system which runs 24 hours a day." I'm going to say that nobody here is doubting the damage heavy goods vehicles are doing to the cycle lane wands, that's pretty clear from the pictures. What a lot of people questioning, including us in our email, is why returning to painted infrastructure would be safe for cyclists Anyway, on with the rest of the day...Dan joined road.cc in 2020, and spent most of his first year keeping you entertained on the live blog. At the start of 2022 he took on the role of news editor.

This is the city centre end of the route, with wands now all removed. and the route from Liverpool towards Bootle, no wands just a magic white line.

. typical anti-cycling Cllr who has no fucking clue! Let's see them cycle on painted lanes on busy roads & see if they think they're fine after a few close calls. PaintIsNotInfrastructure PaintIsNotSegregatedInfrastructure
