Mexborough's shortest cycle lane

Image: © David Wilkinson Taken: 10 Jun 2004

We're always being told that, to reduce climate change, for short journeys we should consider cycling instead of driving. Well, here is a cycle lane for VERY short journeys, at the north end of Bambury Bridge on the A6023 on the eastern outskirts of Mexborough. The original route of the A6023 followed the turning visible at the far right of this photo across a lower-lying bridge - often subject to flooding - over the River Don, and a level crossing. Bambury Bridge opened in 2001.
