Cars parked in a cycle lane
I've also complained to AT about this before Christmas as the whole stretch is just covered in parked cars. No response from them yet tho 🤷

PS I have emailed AT about this, but thought it also coming from Bike Auckland might give it more weight. Thanks!
Photo of a dropped kerb which is not wide enough to allow bikes to enter Light Path safely
@bikeauckland.bsky.social This photo is of the dropped kerb from the new Canada St cycleway to Light Path. It was impossible for me to turn left from Canada St onto the Light Path with my cargo bike. I had to go to the right of the bollard. Could this be followed up with AT, and the kerb be widened?
Then at the top the markings take you off the road onto the pavement to share with pedestrians - this is suboptimal (why can't we just stay on the road and then turn left like normal?). Then getting back onto Pitt St cycle lane is confusing. There's no dropped kerb where you expect to rejoin... 🤷
Vincent St itself is good, either end is poor. There is no cycle provision on the new Albert St so I have to go via Federal St. Getting to/from Federal St is very frustrating - two sets of lights which take a VERY long time; there needs to be a diagonal crossing at that junction.
That's great news! Does that mean we can now finally move forward with the Chamberlain Park Golf Course redesign? 🤞
I do own a SUV, a Sustainable Urban Vehicle! 📦🚲
Here's a good video on the absurdity of road widening:
