Safety Issues — Chalk Farm Rd Cycle Path, 2nd May
While it’s great to see Camden invest in cycle infrastructure, such as the development of the Chalk Farm Rd cycle path, I have a number of concerns regarding the termination point near Hartland Rd.
The end of the path is not only poorly conceived but also poses a significant threat to the safety of cyclists.
Of particular concern is the acute angle at which cyclists will be directed onto the roadway, a design choice that not only lacks practicality but also increases the risk of collisions with traffic. Additionally, the presence of a bump immediately preceding this juncture exacerbates the perilous situation as cyclists' attention at this critical moment would likely be behind them, focused on the approaching traffic.
If the decision is to implement a give-way protocol at the termination of the cycle path then this introduces additional complications, as the potential accumulation of waiting cyclists could impede the flow of traffic entering or exiting Hartland Rd. This logistical bottleneck not only undermines the efficiency of the cycling infrastructure but also discourages its utilisation in favour of safer alternatives.
It is alarming that such hazardous conditions were not identified and rectified during the design phase. The inherent danger of the current layout cannot be overstated, as it is bound to result in accidents and injuries if left unaddressed.
It is imperative that these issues are addressed to ensure the safety of cyclists and I urge the council to take immediate action before the path is opened to the public.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Georgiana Street facing east before junction with Royal College Street, 1st May
An update on previous report # 5626131.
I really do believe a road sign is missing here and that it would significantly improve road safety for cyclists if it could be added. The other cross streets all have a sign under the one-way street sign that says 'Except cycles'. But this is missing from Georgiana Street.
This means there is no signage alerting road users going east on Georgiana Street (straight across Royal College Street) that there is a contraflow bike lane going south on the opposite side of the road. Traffic going straight through will be unaware that they need to look left as well as right before proceeding straight ahead across the junction. This is a serious danger to cyclists and I have experienced a number of near misses as well as witnessing a van/bike collision since the last report I made about this (in February). I'd be so grateful if this could be looked at.

78 Haverstock hill, 29th April
There are two manholes outside 78 Haverstock hill that need re-sealing as water is leaking into the two coal holes in the shop below every time it rains. This is getting worse now that the intensity of the rain has caused the internal side of the manhole to fall off.

Tree about 18 moths old At Anglers lane near Kentish Town Rd, 28th April
As part of a tree planting scheme when the low traffic area was introduced which made this part of Anglers Lane a no entry, 2 trees were planted. One of them has just been vandalised and how been completely snapped in two. The other tree is OK but its supports and ties require urgent attention before it gets vandalised. Any chance a replacement tree can be found for the one which has been snapped in two?
