One of the big problems with the current Leith Walk plans is that the cycle lanes don't have priority over side roads. The reason isn't that the planners don't want to give priority, it's that they think it's not possible to do safely. Which is clearly not true, there are loads of examples from the UK and abroad. I'm looking to write a short blog post with 5-10 examples, preferably from the UK, of segregated bike lanes that have priority over side roads, just to prove that it's possible.
I have two examples from this excellent article which aren't particularly well done, but prove the point that with UK traffic laws its possible to have continuous cycleway across a side junction. Does anyone know of any others?
I'm reluctant to use Dutch examples as there are different laws about turning traffic there, UK would be ideal.
