Well, #Hampshire County Council still think cyclists should not be using the #NationalCycleNetwork Route 23 to get to #JaysClose/#Viables Industrial Estate in #Basingstoke - there's still no dropped kerb since they built the new section of pavement. Is this negligence, ignorance, or deliberate due to a dislike of #cyclists? I wonder why #SusTrans don't audit the #NCN?

Hampshire County Council don't think anyone rides bicycles on this section of the National Cycle Network route 23 so installed a raised kerb, even though it is signed as the main route to the town centre. They say that the cycle barriers they installed further up the shared use path make cycling impossible on the shared use path.
If only Sustrans bothered to maintain standards on the NCN, and reviewed the routes regularly.
