Tips

Cycling

This pathway and cycle route becomes overgrown with vegetation. The council implement emergency closures for up to two weeks to cut back the vegetation. Publicity for the closures is very poor. The official council position is that there is no alternative route. Closures are normally in June and Autumn.
