But Birmingham City Council insists it isn't a cycle lane... cycling
A seven-foot-long stretch of road in Birmingham has caused social media ridicule, local and national newspaper headlines and an official council response.
And local resident Lauren Hastings told the newspaper"it's completely useless" and"just pointless and a waste of money", but Birmingham City Council has defended the 'lane', which it says is not even a cycle lane after all.A council spokesperson said:"This isn't a cycle lane it is just for transition purposes for cyclists getting off the Toucan crossing onto the carriageway.
However, the messaging does not seem to have reached the community, with one resident sharing a photo of the markings on Facebook, saying it"is around the length of a bike, brilliant, I'll look forward to cycling along it. What a joke". "It is probably more dangerous as it sends them straight back into traffic. You've got to laugh in a way but it's just stupid planning really. It's just pointless and a waste of money. I don't get why they went to the bother of even doing it."
