Cycle Review of NCN Route 75: Kirknewton - Livingston
Ref Issue– Track width at bridge – very substandard path width of less than 0.5m on bridge approach with right angle railings which could be run into and cause an accident 3.7
Recommendation – widen track to at least 2.0m by decking over stream, remove railings on approach and replace with less angular railings or post and rail with reflective material in them.
Kirknewton Community Development Trust
Ref Issue– Low Headroom on bridge – tall cyclists very likely to hit spars across bridge which are a hazard and there are no warning signs 3.8
Recommendation – replace spars with a curved design to give better clearance or remove them if not needed or put up warning signs
