People living near a major road through the south of Leicester say it's becoming a dangerous eye-sore.

Aylestone Road saw temporary cycle lanes installed during the pandemic, to encourage more people to get on a bike, to get around.

Work to make the lanes permanent has seen concrete blocks installed along the road side, which some people say is difficult to see, a danger to car drivers and pedestrians, and an eyesore.

Leicester City Council said similar blocks had been successfully used elsewhere in the city to protect cyclists.
