Safety facility

Car C930HET looks like it is blocking this bike-only entrance into Broadmead and Cabot Circus

But looking back you can see that it is parked far enough out for bikes to come past, and angled to give bikes a good route in without slowing down.

By stopping where they have, they force buses round it. so reducing bus/bike conflict.

Admittedly, bikes going straight on have a challenge, but that isn't a fun road to do; this car provides a little "swerve" to give it a bit of an urban singletrack flavour
