Why is this marked as a cycleway? It's not designated, it's clearly not built with cyclists in mind. Cyclists need to traverse it to reach the bike racks but it very much seems like the intent is that they should dismount and walk they bikes (although this is not explicitly signed either) This is bad, but lying and telling cyclists that there is a cycleway when there is just a steep, narrow footpath with a guard rail tight on one side and no room to pass is also bad. We should be mapping what IS there not what should be there or what we want to be there.

This is a easily navigable shortcut to get from the Galloping Goose to Alpha Street, and is ignored in the Bosch Flow App

OpenStreetMap Wiki shows that this should be just part of Harbour Road rather than mapped separately, and tagged as followed:

cycleway:left=track
cycleway:right=no
cycleway:left:oneway=no

cycleway:right:oneway=*

This seems to be a consistent problem throughout the entire CRD.
