A cycling forum picked up an unsafe bit of cycling published by National Rail at this intersection, and it looked strange when I watched the video. Checking Google Maps Street View show that the signals for the junction have been modified, which *may* have contributed -- but it doesn't look optimal to me in any case. Traffic from North Lane seems to no longer have a proper signal.

I am not local, the pictures above are what I know.

  • No way can that bike rider have seen those lights flashing, but anyone with a brain would not ride on the wrong side of a crossing and try to cut over to the left!

    Yes the lights need altering but the bike rider needs to learn how to cross a crossing safely....
