This is a short stretch of cycle lane adjacent to the entrance to a park and school. The paint is designed to draw the attention to motorists entering and exiting the school of the cycle lane. Great idea - except the paint is glossy and treacherous to cyclists when wet. My wheels went from under me on a wet day and I hurt myself badly. Luckily my helmet did its job and saved me from serious injury. No other vehicle was involved. I have reported the issue to the local Council and asked that the surface be treated with non slip paint.
