Description
A narrow bike lane is marked but is unusable because of vegetation growing over and significant (permanent) debris - mulch from plants.
The implementation (width / maintenance) doesn't make this a suitable cycle lane and suggests a viable and longer seperated lane should be created or simply more warning signs for other road users to inform them of high levels of cycle traffic.

A long term concern is that the white poles are not particularly safe for cyclists and the lane is still very narrow leaving vehicles to squeeze past cyclists riding in this lane giving them less than a 1 metre safe passing distance.

This was reported to the council but it appears to be the responsibility of the RMS and has been reported. There is no change however the bollards would make it fairly dangerous and narrow.
While this is not a hoon / racing section of McCarrs, this is where other motorists attempt to overtake when it is dangerous. Essentially means the entire McCarrs Creek Road needs to be addressed to make all road users aware and to make it safer for all.
