That was going to be my suggestion.
We have loads of "mixed use" pathways round here that are nothing more than normal pavements with a sign permitting cycling. I assume it is some cheap bodge to build a certain amount of cycle track to gain some funding or show how "green" they are. Seems daft to me if the pavements aren't widened as surely they are no more appropriate to cycle on than a normal pavement?
