The hazard is highlighted by a large and highly visibile arrow pointing at it. This makes the bollard difficult to miss, even in the poorest visibilty conditions. Location Map Cycle Streets

This site is dedicated to highlighting examples of how innovative design and outstanding engineering offer safety, utility, and comfort to cyclists. If you know of a cycle facility worthy of inclusion on this site, either within Warrington or beyond, then send a photo (jpg) and short description to Pete Owens.
