Credit to Costain, and/or the designers of the Link Road works, for this excellent path diversion round the work site.
I was expecting a narrow, obstructed, bumpy diversion, and therefore very surprised when this wide, well-surfaced, lit route was created. It now even has a bench for people to watch the work! I have never seen chicanes on a hill before which you could actually cycle round at a sensible speed but not at a dangerous speed, I wish all chicane barriers were like this! Having said that, I'm not 100% sure they were necessary, perhaps more so on the E end where visibility is restricted under the bridge, but either way far far better than what is usually done.
