Barriers at Ham Lands BMX Track


There had been concerns about how some users of the BMX track by Teddington Lock were taking extended run-ups which increased the risk of contact with walkers (and dogs) and also caused the path to spread into areas of rare plants. The end result is that Richmond Council have installed a line of barriers along the edge of the BMX track to try and stop this.

There is a long story here, and I do not know all of it, but I can at least record was has been done. I can also note that the barriers at the far end here are a long way from the path that they are meant to be protecting.

 

One positive is that they are a useful place to put your bike when not using it.
