heather replied to Andrew S's discussion Pirie Street Cycle Path Blocked"Hoffman, where in Waymouth Street and where are the photos?"
MarkK replied to Andrew S's discussion Pirie Street Cycle Path Blocked"What are you complaining about? They are rebuilding the footpath on Waymouth St and in the workers wisdom they have completely blocked off the footpath so pedestrians coming out of the local carpark have NO CHOICE but to walk with the cars and…"
heather replied to Andrew S's discussion Pirie Street Cycle Path Blocked"Doddsy, in SA often temporary speed limit of 40km/h where originally 50 or 60, for the safety or road users (except cyclists?) when road workers not around. When workers are at the exact location, expect an urban arterial road to have a temporary…"
Doddsy replied to Andrew S's discussion Pirie Street Cycle Path Blocked"Speed limit should be 30 and the bike symbols should be smack bang in the middle of the lane (instead of the door zone.) At least the sign with the inapropriate speed limit is stopping people from riding in the door zone.

Tim B replied to Andrew S's discussion Pirie Street Cycle Path Blocked"Perhaps the vehicle and trailer are just parked there for a short time and the cones were put there to stop people riding into the trailer that is encroching on the bike lane, hence the 50kph sign and not the standard 25kph if workers were out.
I…"

Notice that you are a member of Adelaide BUG that I coordinate. Am willing to contact ACC from Adelaide BUG re Pirie Street to discuss matter.

Patrick O'Kane replied to Andrew S's discussion Pirie Street Cycle Path Blocked"The voice of reason. Ride round it and keep smiling.
Are road workers not allowed to work anywhere near a bike lane once they are installed. Just put 'em in and forget 'em. Strewth, I wonder how some people get from A to B if there…"

Hi Andrew, notice that you cycle in ACC area and possibly Prospect. An invite to join Adelaide BUG and possibly Prospect BUG. I coordinate both groups with pages on AC. I reported your cycling hazard complaint re Morphett St bridge.

Hi Andrew, I cannot answer your question about strava. Suggest you read and perhaps post on the following discussion. Notice on the last page (most recent comments) that member RD6 has posted a Strava titled plot. http://www.adelaidecyclists.com/forum/topics/adelaide-cyclists-strava-club Cheers, Heather

Hi Andrew,
Welcome to Adelaide Cyclists. You might be interested in joining AC group Commuters and, if you cycle in the city, Adelaide BUG. I coordinate four AC groups with emphasis on improving cycling conditions: Adelaide BUG, Prospect BUG, Look For Cyclists and Vote For Cyclists. There is more info in the introduction on each group web page.
Cheers, Heather
