An infamous 'optical illusion' cycle lane which injured more than 100 people has been 'fixed overnight', a council claim.<br /><br />The lane was branded 'the most dangerous in Britain' due to the high number of injuries - with locals blaming a 'trick of the eye' design.<br /><br />Photos show how it appears to be flat at a glance - but actually passes over an elevated pedestrian crossing.<br /><br />Walkers on Keynsham High Street near Bristol have repeatedly missed and tripped on a 'hidden' curb - which they say looked like a flat line as it is painted white.<br /><br />Since it was installed by Bath and North East Somerset Council in March 2022, more than 100 people have been injured on it.<br /><br />Overnight last night April 11 Bath and North East Somerset Council (BANES) began repainting the solid white line as a broken line.<br /><br />It is in the hoped it will stop the confusion and the injuries. Work was carried out overnight to avoid disruption to firms and cars.<br /><br />Paul Roper, the council's cabinet member for economic and cultural sustainable development, said: "This mitigation should make the change in levels clearer to pedestrians and prevent further trips and falls.''
