After poking around at a few photos of the area, I've realised why the traffic island absolutely has to be there; to be somewhere to put the no-entry sign :-S.

The layout of the blue cycle lane sign and the two no-entry signs has to be like that for reasons of legal pedantry which I'd feel really sad for going into in any more detail.

Ah, yes. I've read cam.transport enough that I can probably hazard a guess as to the sort of legal pedantry and know well enough not to ask in someone else's journal :-).

Sadly when that junction was re-done the new island was placed too far left: giving drivers lots of room, but making the lane for cyclists very narrow at that point, and certainly narrower than it used to be. I don't know if this was planned, or if it was an error on the part of the contractors doing the work, either way I don't think we'll see it fixed any time soon.

It's a nuisance even turning left into there, never mind turning right.
