183427 | ![]() | No safe access along this road for cyclist with lots of close villages that should be accessible. Reduce speed limit to 50 mph and put in a segregated cycle lane. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
183426 | ![]() | No overtaking lines needed around this double bend as I have had various vehicles overtake me only to nearly hit me or oncoming vehicles. In fact I have just reported one driver that actually did hit me to Essex police. | Road environment: Problem road |
183421 | ![]() | There is no safe crossing from the Southern estate to the Zebra crossing to the north on Tollgate Road. | Track: Problem track |
182870 | ![]() | Most disappointed to see these new barriers, which have been installed in the past few weeks on Via Urbis Romanae, Colchester. A complaint is winging way to @essexhighways and the location will be added to our barriers map. What a waste of money! @CampaignCycling @WeAreCyclingUK t.co/crjVl3R2dq | Road environment: Infrastructure road |
182416 | ![]() | Reinstate footpath that was removed when the traffic lights went in. | Track: Problem track |
182330 | ![]() | Not sure what this cyclists dismount sign is for. Tiny private access road that the cycleway crosses. t.co/qKfhZAd3Qm | Route sign: Infrastructure routesigns |
178210 | ![]() | Desperate need for a pedestrian crossing here to support the Primary School and local housing. | Track: Problem track |
178037 | ![]() | Hi, this road is the main link between the Greenstead estate and Severalls Business Park. I have cycled to work over the past 20 years using this road and it is becoming a huge danger to cyclists given how busy it is, esp on school days. As it is a main link between a large housing estate and a large area of employment it makes sense to either create a dual use path on the existing footpath/s or add a segregated cycle lane. Either will make it much more safer and attractive for people who cycle to work and encourage more to use their bikes to go to work. Given the tailbacks on this road daily and that another 200 homes are being built on Bromley Road surely this is an urgent need? | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
177971 | ![]() | Hi hi @waitrose - We’ve made a few trips to your #Colchester store to collect for customers. See pics attached though, a useful route to and from the carpark/entrance, but is there any chance you could remove the barriers, and widen the access at the top of the ramp, please? t.co/X8Z3CTTja9 | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
177565 | ![]() | With a primary school on this road and access to the secondary school this road should be a 20mph speed limit. To make walking and cycling safer. | Track: Problem track |
177564 | ![]() | With the Tiptree pump track here it makes sense to make it safer to cycle to it and a 20mph speed limit would be a good start. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
177511 | ![]() | You have to cross this road to access the School, so the road should be a 20mph zone. | Track: Problem track |
177509 | ![]() | To encourage walking and cycling along this route which avoids a dangerous crossroads it should be a 20mph zone. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
177508 | ![]() | This road is ideal for cycling to take them away from the double roundabout and to encourage them along with walking it should be a 20mph zone. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
177507 | ![]() | This road already has a small section of cycle way so to make it safer and encouraging its use the road needs to be a 20mph zone. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
177506 | ![]() | With a community centre & elderly accommodation along with a primary school in the area this road should be part of a 20mph zone. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
177505 | ![]() | This road is used as a rat run and should be part of a 20mph zone to make it safer to walk/cycle. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
177503 | ![]() | This road is used as a rat run and should be a 20mph zone to encourage walking and cycling. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
174775 | ![]() | The cycle path is just a side road which is full of potholes and speed bumps. It needs resurfacing. Otherwise the existing pavement should be widened to accommodate a shared use pedestrian/cycle space. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
173890 | ![]() | This loop should be a school street and closed off. Parents are bring air pollution right to the entrance of the school. Parents also park both sides of the road meaning primary school children who by very definition are short are crossing between cars. These are often SUV's so seeing a child is a problem. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
172277 | ![]() | A lot of close passes are caused by rat run vehicles being diverted by sat navs. There is a petition to close this road which would make the A12 safer for traffic as well. www.easthorpepeace.org.uk | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
171433 | ![]() | Mill Road is controlled by traffic lights at this junction so is effectively a one way system. So why not move the lights back up Mill Road so the pavements on either side can be widened. This would also allow pollution from idling cars waiting at lights to be more affectively be dispersed as the buildings are less close to the road. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
168434 | ![]() | Ideal location for a School Street allowing children and parents to safely walk to school while providing safe distancing. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
168353 | ![]() | Pavements on both sides of road are extremely narrow and two lanes of one way traffic increases speeding. At the very least this should be a 20 mph speed limit. Better still would be one lane of traffic until the road widens at the bottom, The reclaimed space would be given over to increased pavement space. This would encourage Park & Stride also there would be room for a segregated cycle path. | Track: Problem track |
167773 | ![]() | With the new light controlled crossings installed on the A12 slip roads the next week spot in the cycling infrastructure is crossing Axial Way. So a safe crossing is required here. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |

165655 | ![]() | Being a popular route for walking to school this should be a 20 mph zone just as any new housing estate would be. | Track: Problem track |
165654 | ![]() | There is no pavement on this greensward to link up pavements either side of this Colchester Road junction. | Track: Problem track |
165653 | ![]() | Pedestrian crossing for lots of reasons. Access to Shops, Chemist, Doctor's, Church and importantly School. Also very popular bus stops which are not only used by shoppers and commuters but secondary school children for busses to school. | Track: Problem track |
165433 | ![]() | Traffic is asked to reduce speed to 30 mph, so why not make it an enforceable 30 mph speed limit. This section of road is regularly used by cyclists to link quiet country lanes. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
165432 | ![]() | Remove discriminatory barriers at the end of the shared path which prevents non standard bicycles and trailers from being used. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
165347 | ![]() | No cycle lane, but plenty of space (the road is wide enough for a dual carriageway) | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
165346 | ![]() | Pavement width less than a metre, making it hard to walk on | Track: Problem track |
165335 | ![]() | No pavement but more and more residential buildings going up in the area. Therefore the speed limit needs reducing to 30 mph which would also benefit the many cyclists using the road as a quiet route to Tiptree. | Track: Problem track |
165333 | ![]() | This junction is used by lots of cyclists and also residents. Various properties also front this road but it is presently national speed limit and needs reducing to 30 mph. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
165332 | ![]() | No pavement here but lots of housing development going on so needs a 30 mph speed limit. Preferably 20 mph. | Track: Problem track |
164832 | ![]() | Reduce speed limit to 30 mph in both directions and on the Marks Tey bound lane make it a single carriageway. This would enable a two way segregated cycle track to the station. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
164823 | ![]() | Busy road towards Marks Tey train station from the surrounding Stanway residential area, with a number of pinch points on it. Regularly get very close passes along the whole length of the road. Ideally needs protected cycle lanes installed to make a safe route from the residential area to Marks Tey train station to encourage use of the newly expanded cycle storage facilities. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
164813 | ![]() | Remove accessibility ♿ barriers on shared use path to allow access for cargo bike and trailers. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
164602 | ![]() | This footpath is less than a meter wide and has a bus stop. It needs to double in width which could easily be accommodated by removing the central hash lines in the middle of the road. These central lines only encourage faster traffic speeds in a built up area much of which is quickly becoming residential. | Track: Problem track |

162119 | ![]() | This road is frequently used in the morning as a rat run it therefore needs to be a 20 mph zone. This would encourage more walking and cycling. | Track: Problem track |
162118 | ![]() | This road shouldn't be used as a rat run and to encourage more walking and cycling it should be part of a 20 mph zone. | Track: Problem track |
162117 | ![]() | No reason that this road isn't a 20 mph speed limit to encourage walking and cycling. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |

157104 | ![]() | With such short stretches of road why is it deemed acceptable for it to be a 40 mph road. Large housing estate has no safe crossing for schools and shopping, so the maximum speed limit should be 30 but preferably 30 mph. | Track: Problem track |
155648 | ![]() | No pavements and houses opening directly on to the road, so needs to be a 20 mph zone. | Track: Problem track |
155646 | ![]() | Solid white lines to stop cars overtaking cyclist on the approach to the blind bend. I have seen several near misses and reported to Extra Eyes. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |

152705 | ![]() | NO right turns into Prior Way to stop this road being used as a rat run. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
152704 | ![]() | 40 mph ends at Langham Road but should carry on all the way along Severalls Lane. Or even better reduced to 30 mph given the number of residents / businesses, tight bends along these roads. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
152702 | ![]() | To promote cycling and walking these roads need to be a 20 mph area. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
152701 | ![]() | To promote cycling and walking these roads need to be a 20 mph zone. | Track: Problem track |
152650 | ![]() | Narrow pavement across bridge this could be improved by using a traffic priority narrowing of the road. Giving vehicles going up the hill priority so reducing pollution. This already happens unofficially with cars parked along the length of this road. | Track: Problem track |
152475 | ![]() | There are no safe crossings of this very busy junction despite new housing going up along with schools and shops. | Track: Problem track |
152474 | ![]() | These roads are used as a rat run and a 20 mph might discourage it especially with enforcement. | Track: Problem track |
152473 | ![]() | A modal filter here to stop rat running from Berechurch Hall Rd to B1025. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
152289 | ![]() | New bridge needed -- make it cycle-friendly too. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
152219 | ![]() | This is used as a rat run so ideally needs a modal filter to be used as a cycling quiet way. | Temporary closure: Problem closure |
152218 | ![]() | There is no dropped kerb curb to allow pedestrians and cyclist to access Asda or other retailers. Or looking at it the other way there is no dropped kerb from the retail park giving access to shared use path. Which leads to the Highwoods country park, town centre avoiding North Station Road. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |

151619 | ![]() | There is a footpath here that could easily be widened to create a shared use cycle path. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
151618 | ![]() | Fountain Lane is a rat run used to get to the A12 - this Junction with Easthorpe Road requires a STOP line as regularly drivers don't slow and look properly at the junction. Only this morning I nearly became a statistic. | Cycleway: Problem cycleways |
151409 | ![]() | The time between pushing the crossing request button and traffic stopping needs to be reduced to allow for greater social distancing. This would also encourage more walking. | Track: Problem track |
151408 | ![]() | The time from pushing the request button on the crossing needs to be reduced. To help social distancing and encourage walking. | Track: Problem track |
