| 113318 |  | Prohibited! | General sign/notice: Misc signs |
| 107155 |  | A big improvement on the old crossing, which required you to lift the bike over. These gates appear to be controlled by magnetic lock (I didn't look closely but there's an odd lump on the side of each one). | Other: Good practice general |
| 106155 |  | These wood barriers have been placed to slow cyclists down. They do quite a good job of it and are easy to pass through. | Obstruction: Infrastructure obstructions |
| 103378 |  | Uneven surface due to badger activity. | Roadworks: Infrastructure roadworks |
| 103377 |  | Road closed signs on the Cheshire Cycleway (RCN 70). Although badger activity has undermined the road so that it is impassible for motors you can still walk or cycle through.See #103378 & #103379 | General sign/notice: Infrastructure signs |

| 90341 |  | Tarvin in Cheshire . The local landowners horse owners are blatenly blocking and intimidating path users with: dumping of manure, string and a horse box. The rest of the path will become overgrown through lack of use. No wonder NHS is overwhelmed by mental and physical diseases caused by lack of exercise. twitter.com/IPROW1/status/844299649531957249 Reported via maps.cheshirewestandchester.gov.uk/cwac/faultreporting/ | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
| 90340 |  | Tarvin fotpath network is very unfriendly and definitely NOT smooth. United Utilities strap line "making life flow smoothly" does not apply here.

Reported to maps.cheshirewestandchester.gov.uk/cwac/faultreporting/ | Obstruction: Problem obstructions |
