Useful information, but I cannot see it on bing.
Cycling on public footpaths is illegal, cyclist should dismount and push their bikes in this situation.
Ringing the bell is poor and wrong advice, have you even considered that some people are deaf?
The underpass is not shown on the map, it is used by pedestrians and cyclists. Cycling with care is unlikely to attract a fixed penalty, on 1st August 1999, new legislation came into force to allow a fixed penalty notice to be served on anyone who is guilty of cycling on a footway. However the Home Office issued guidance on how the new legislation should be applied, indicating that they should only be used where a cyclist is riding in a manner that may endanger others. The then Home Office Minister Paul Boateng issued a letter stating that:
“The introduction of the fixed penalty is not aimed at responsible cyclists who sometimes feel obliged to use the pavement out of fear of traffic and who show consideration to other pavement users when doing so. Chief police officers, who are responsible for enforcement, acknowledge that many cyclists, particularly children and young people, are afraid to cycle on the road, sensitivity and careful use of police discretion is required.”
