A new cycle lane that dominates a bridge in Hertfordshire is causing confusion for pedestrians who are staying on the narrow edges.

Hertfordshire County Council said: "The lines in place on the Fairlands Way path have been installed in accordance with the scheme design and to current codes and standards.

"The lines are not intended to form pedestrian lanes, nor pedestrian exclusion zones. They are guidance for cyclists.

"Pedestrians are free to walk wherever they like. The signing provided at the bridge indicates this to bridge users."

So what is it all about and what rights does it give cyclists or pedestrians?
