The map above (somewhat out of date now – apologies) shows with the dashed purple line where this ‘link’ will be. Although it connects with an on-road route (ie NCN Route 24). it avoids the crossing of the A362 Frome Bypass, which is an exceptionally busy road and a dangerous crossing.

We are in touch with local landowners and believe there are good prospects for this link.

The crossing of the railway and A361 Frome bypass would make use of existing farm underpasses so is completely safe.

Route 24 then takes quiet lanes to the beautiful estate of Longeat, and through to Horningsham. If safe enough, this is a realistic route for those working at Longleat to to use to cycle to work.
