Any indication that they are actually enforcing the rules around parking in the cycle lane?  

 

It seems Mr Chip and Flower Warehouse are serial offenders, surely if they have been reported multiple times and have actually received multiple fines they would have changed their behavior by now?

So city of Cape Town removed the cycle lane in Woodstock after my complaint, now say it will be back at some point.

 

Can someone shed light on how they going to get 2 lanes of parking, 2 car lanes and 2 bike lanes. It does not work as the moment...

Wait so there is a project to improve the entire situation?  Did they provide any kind of timeline?

 

edit: spelling

 

Nope, they have done this a bit arsed-about-face. 

 

Should have a press release saying, we have done the research etc and have seen the issues with the current situation. 

 

This is our plan, we have contacted X,Y,Z cyclist activists to get the cyclists input and have come up with a solution. 

 

This is how we plan to roll out and will be done from this date to this date. Lanes removed and then the new project rolled out. 

 

Nope- Instead just remove the lane, good luck to the okes.

Went past Old Biscuit Mill on Saturday. The Taxis were parked nose to tail in the "Bike Lane" as far as you can see, and on both sides of the road.

We took our chances and played Dodgems with the cars.
