Steps on Tonford Lane bridge
Steps at each end of Tonford Lane bridge make it difficult to take wheeled modes of transport such as bicycles, scooters, push chairs, wheelchairs, and mobility scooters from one side of the river to the other.

Dropped kerb and ramp
A dropped kerb should be added at the foot of Braidwood Gate so that cyclists don't need to dismount. A chicane is *not* needed at the bottom of the hill, either.
A ramp should also be added, either in place of or beside the steps from Dumbiedykes Road into Holyrood Park.

Dropped kerb needed for NEPN access
See: https://goo.gl/maps/sZEe3AdMN8v - dropped kerb and step removal required for NEPN access from Bonnington Grove. The other side at Dalmeny Road has step-free access.

Remove railings
Remove the railings at the steps, unnecessary street clutter that narrows the pavement and makes crossing Old Dalkeith Rad more difficult.
-
Cyle permeability
Remove the steps and the guardrails to make a connection for bicycles (and buggys and wheelchairs).

Ramp on footbridge over Brunstane station
The footbridge has lot of steps, even though it is a shallow ramp; apparently the designers did not expect that people with bicycles, wheelchairs, buggys or trolleys might ever want to use the bridge.

Remove steps on ramp down from Union Road footbridge to A4143
RAISED AT PUBLIC MEETING 10-04-2014
There are relatively shallow paths that run from both ends of the bridge down to the A4143, but both have shallow steps that stop them being useful to cyclists. This means that people heading out of the hospital wanting to cycle down the A4143 towards Llanfoist have to cross the road with the traffic, rather than the safer alternative of crossing the bridge and coming down the ramp.
Note that openstreetmap's map of this is incorrect. I'll submit a correction (11-04-2014)

Twickenham Bridge to Thames Path
The cycleways along the Thames Path and along Ducks Walk are not connected with the south/east side cycleway across Twickenham Bridge and only to the north/west side cycleway via a long detour through Old Deer Park or along The Avenue.
A ramped way down from the bridge would create a useful route for people into and out of Richmond town center that is currently only possible by using two flights of steps.
-
Sheendale Rd / St Marys Grove railway bridge
Railway footbridge should have a ramp/trough added to make it easier for cyclists to cross the railway. This would then create a quiet north/south route to Marshgate school as an alternative to Manor Road.
