Cyclescape is a handy online tool for cataloging issues with cycling infrastructure, born out of work at Cambridge Cycling Campaign.  It’s killer feature is being able to easily log an issue on a map – so you can all see exactly where the issue is under discussion. Richmond Cycling Campaign (along with other groups nationwide) are making increasing use of this tool – but because its used to log issues all over the country it can be a little bit hard to find specific items.

All cyclescape posts in the Richmond borough area are reviewed by RCC committee members and categorised by applying a set of “tags” – or labels, depending on the type of issue.   This article provides some shortcuts to issues grouped according to themes that are important to RCC.

Themes – click through the links below to see lists of issues logged so far:

• All Richmond Borough Issues – on one map
• Main routes – issues logged regarding main routes through the borough
• A316 – issues logged regarding the A316 cycle tracks
• Quiet routes – issues regarding quiet routes through the borough
• School routes – issues on routes to or near schools
• Cycle parking – issues regarding cycle parking
• Signage – issues regarding signage

Council wards – we also tag by electoral ward; this will enable us to highlight all the issues in an particular area with the councillors who represent that ward.  The wards are shown below and a complete list of councillors by ward is maintained by LBRUT.
