Description

This problem seems to get worse every year by Cardiff beach, both north and south bound.
I call the Sheriffs and they do coffee and ticket the cars, but as soon as those leave others take their place. So although we raise ticket revenue, it doesn't solve the problem of cyclists getting forced out into the traffic lanes and having car doors opened on them. The later is a particular problem when they park just partially on the bike lane as most cyclists will try to squeeze through what's left.

Options to solve the problem may include: Far more obvious signs. Painting the bike lane green with NO Parking painted all along it.
A full-time ticketing officer there at weekends. Placing a small fence starting from the Kraken so cars can't even try to park to the right of the bike lane (= how it starts). Removing one lane so there's room for parking and a buffered bike lane (however, at Torry Pines beach cars use the bike lane for waiting for a parking spot to open).

I'm happy to meet to discuss this.
Thanks
