Open the railway bridge to allow cyclists and pedestrians to get over to Wembley Park. Would avoid the need to navigate Wembley triangle when coming from the north circular.

Entry point to cycle-path is often blocked by parked cars. This could be addressed by extending the zigzag marking next to the adjacent pedestrian crossing so that parking in front of the entry point is prohibited.

Cycle lane either side of Carlton Vale provides good space but is poorly maintained, resulting in a build up of broken glass, debris and leaves and causing cyclists to use the main carriageway.

Can the bridge be designated suitable for cycing or additional width added? This is an important link for cyclists between Harrow/Kenton and Preston Road/Wembley.

Need a crossing for cyclists going in both directions, Gayton Road and Northwick Avenue

Lack of segregated cycle path along a5 prevents direct cycle link into central London

Cycling from Northwick Ave to Gayton Rd involves a dangerous right turn from Kenton Road onto Gayton Rd. Some sort of protection is needed here

Bumpy road: the presence of holes on the road makes it dangerous to pedal when cars come from behind.

The bike path available now is narrow and the road slanted towards the pavement, making it really hard to pedal here going uphill and with cars behind you.

Used as an alternative to High Rd, for lack of cycleways there as well. It doesn't have enough space for two cars passing opposite directions, cycling is unsafe here.

High Rd is heavily congested, it doesn't feel safe to ride on the road. Families with kids often use the pavement, but this doesn't feel safe either, would need to be widened

East Lane is a very busy road connecting Sudbury and Wembley. It also has 3 large schools, 2 tube stations and many shops including 2 supermarkets. There is currently no safe segregated cycle lane and could also benefit from school streets … [more]

Linking south Kilburn to central Kilburn. Cycling from salusbury road to wembley is dangerous as soon as one leaves the conservation area of Kilburn.

Linking south Kilburn to central Kilburn. Cycling from Salusbury Road to Wembley is dangerous as soon as one leaves the conservation area of Kilburn.

Cars go too fast as they crest the hill and then down Willesden Lane. It is hazardous trying to turn right into Winchester Avenue; cars come up on the inside and undertake which is dangerous

This is dangerous for cyclists - its a through road for cars going on to Jeymer Avenue and beyond and they drive fast and aggressively. Too many near misses

Although a wide road, there's no cycle path in any direction and cyclists are pushed out of the way with close passes.

The only way to access the station or cycle towards Wembley is via the pavement. The connection with Harrow Road needs to be improved, eg dropped kerb and cycling facilities on the bridge

The A5 is an important route from the north west into central London with no cycling infrastructure. Brent needs to create a segregated, continuous cycle lane along the whole A5 route within its control

Additional bicycle storage in anticipation of the increased demand in young people cycling to the school post-COVID19 lockdown.

Redesign crossing from Grasmere Ave to Southbound side of Preston Road - which is currently like a dual carriageway with a raised kerb up and down in the middle of it.

Unsafe for cycling

Narrow road without cycle pathways

Remove or rethink the kissing gate at the entrance of Gladstone Park as it is a barrier that discriminates against disabled cyclists and any non regular cycle users, and prevents access to the Quietway 3 that runs through the park. We are … [more]

Alternative cycling route to other busy and narrow high roads in this area

Neasden Lane North, Access crossing of the North Circular and link to existing Q3

Pop-up cycle lanes/Healthy Corridors on either side so that cyclists can cycle more safely. Single yellow lines should be removed so that cars do not park after 6.30 as this (and bus lanes) creates an unsafe corridor for cyclists on the … [more]

From the Jubilee Clock, down High Street Harlesden leading down Craven Park Road. There should be cycle lanes in both directions and parking should be removed.

Pop Up Cycle Lanes/Healthy corridor to support staff access to hospital

Pop up cycle lanes

Bus and Bike Only. Chamberlayne Rd

Alperton- Ealing Rd- Hanger Lane, Pop-up cycle lanes. to link with existing routes

Central Middlesex Hospital, Key workers cycling corridor

Exempt cycles from one-way along Harlesden High Street

Pop up cycling lane/Healthy corridors for key workers

Park Ave. Make the pinch point under the bridge safer for people cycling

Pop up cycle lane/Healthy Corridors. Accelerate the implementation of Healthy Streets scheme. There is excessive parking on Harlesden High Street (A404 that becomes the Harrow Road) which makes it extremely dangerous to cycle. We need lanes … [more]

Temporary cycle lanes from Brondesbury Park station to Queens Park station to link up to the existing Carlton Vale protected cycle route. Adding wand protected cycle lanes would help less confident new cyclists on this fairly busy stretch.

Measures to make the underpass safer and inclusive for people crossing.

Safer, more convenient and inclusive crossing of the North Circular Road

The A5 road is a direct route into London on heavily used multiple bus routes

Kenton Rd - Kingsbury Rd, A4006. Fast multi-lanes traffic, reallocate space to protected cycle tracks. Major route of miles linking Harrow, Kenton, Kingsbury, the A5.

Existing 40 mph road through Fryent Country Park. Bumpy pavement. Cycling is impossible. Need protected cycle tracks along Fryent Way.

Allow cycle contraflow whole of Clayton Ave, including exit to Ealing Rd

Allow cycle contraflow, to enable entry to One Tree Hill park from Norton Rd

Allow cycle contraflow, including to exit from Bonrows Ave to Ealing Rd

This section of road needs to be improved if people are going to want to cycle more.

This section of road needs to be improved if people are going to want to cycle more.

Cycle route is needed the entire length of Harrow Road.

Fast multi-lane traffic. Some space can be repurposed to enable safe cycling.

Two cycle tracks? which side are pedestrians meant to be on?? Ed: The corduroy paving suggests the left side is for cyclilng and the right for walking.

Unsigned route to cycle bridge over the North Circular Road

Entering Vale Farm sports ground. The barriers are unnecessary because there is a gap at the end. It would be useful to build a connection for cyclists from the road to the tarmac path on the left.
