Improvement to footpath helps with link to schools

Over the summer holidays the footpath from Gresleywood Road through to Pennine Way was closed for upgrading.

The results as shown are a big improvement and this now allows those with pushchairs and wheelchairs to use the path.  This cuts a significant distance out to get to the 2 schools on Pennine Way and encourages more people to walk.  The section shown is the
narrowest part and it does widen towards Pennine Way. 

The 2 photos are not taken from exactly the same point but do indicate the improvements.

This section is one of several that need upgrading to allow people to walk from Wyedale and Castleton Park estates.

After - much improved surface



Before - very narrow and impassable with pushchair.
