Glasgow City Council are facing compensation claims after two pedestrians tripped and fell over a 'dangerous' cycle lane feature.
The cycle lane in the city's Howard Street is currently lined with small bumps called Orcas but fuming pedestrians are calling for them to be removed after tripping and breaking bones.
Two victims are currently pursuing an injury claim through Thompsons Solicitors and have hit out at the local council for installing them in the first place.
Stephen Cameron, 61, was crossing the road when he came tumbling down as he never noticed the Orcas that "blended into the road".
He had to attend the A&E at Glasgow Royal Infirmary on May 6, 2021, after the accident left him with a broken elbow.
Stephen, who works for a boiler repair company, said: "I was crossing the road after going to the Tesco's at St Enoch square and it was quite drizzly outside.
"I stepped off the pavement and I stepped onto one of the Orcas. I went up in the air and I remember I kind of blacked out.
"I felt my glasses hit my nose and the next thing I know I was on the ground. I fell onto my left side and my left arm was very sore."
He added: "My elbow was actually shattered but there was no open wound because I had a thick jacket on.
"I had to get a cast put on and Isuffered a bit of nerve damage. For a while, I couldn't feel the left side of my left hand.
"These bumps are not safe and they should be removed."
One other victim had to spend two days in hospital after her own horror fall over the Orcas just one month after Stephen on June 12, 2021.
The woman, who asked to remain anonymous, was unable to drive or complete daily tasks for around three months after breaking her right wrist as she had to have surgery.
