Break the law? It's long-established in case law that motor vehicles
may cross the footway in order to reach parking spaces, why do you say
it is not so for cycles?


i'd not trust that my self since a bike can be reasonbly wheeled and in
a busy place like that it's more reasonble to wheel a bike than ride.

Better still, Argyll Street is easily reachable by road from Great
Marlborough Street.


As Argyll St is pedestrianised and the cycle stands are at the north
end, it's hard to see how a railing-free exit at the south end makes
that much difference.
