New bridleway path around the future Peak Resort estate, a sensible bonded surface either side of the bridleway gates should help combat erosion
Old footbridge over ditch/brook. Was overgrown with brambles and grass. Part of a disused public footpath from the old Markham Lane before it was rerouted, Could provide useful access from the Bolsover branch line. The wood seems rotten dow ... [more]
A fairly pleasant shared use trail, just in need of a tickle to keep from becoming overgrown and slippy from leaf litter
Informal path offering a clue towards the potential space for a new off road shared cycle path running alongside the River Rother, linking Spital with the Railway station without the need to share a road
Looking up from an informal path towards the Toucan crossing on Hollis Lane.. A possible location for a new bit of segregated infrastructure perhaps?
Looking in the direction of other paths that wouldn't be too difficult to link into and create a new piece of shared infrastructure to enable segregated safe cycling between Spital and Chesterfield Station
At the foot of an essential overbridge that crosses two busy dual carriageways and connects to the Hipper Valley Cycleway
Railway underbridge.... somewhat dark and depressing, but surprisingly seems fairly tidy beneath, I expected more evidence of ant-social behaviour
A path in need of some maintenance, looking towards the Underbridge beneath Chesterfields railway line
A rather narrow section of path, but there is some scope to widen a little. Standing water a problem, but as this path sits up above an adjacent river it shouldn't be a big challenge to improve the drainage
Path crossing of Clayton St close to industrial unit accesses. The walkers painted onto the tarmac wouldn't be obvious to traffic, rendering them a little pointless
potential connectivity to Hollis Lane Toucan crossing and the railway station, although this route currently cuts short and exits on Spital Lane
Could this position offer a clue to an improved exit of this footpath onto Spital Lane to enable cycling along this route
Disappointingly marked as no-cycling, yet this path could offer an excellent upgraded cycling link from Derby Road to the station, and from Spital and Hady into the Town Centre
looking north along a connecting path towards several housing roads off Hady Lane.. which all appear connected together
Just after the exit from Hady Lane looking along the line of the disused railway towards the bridge over Dingle Lane
Split in the path, to the right is Hartington road ,the path left heads towards Alexandra road East and the old railway
Footpath offering access into Hady primary School - too narrow for cycling at the moment, but could be readily increased in width by removal of the horrible pre-cast concrete fence on the south side, and some widening of the path
the official surfaced footpath, with an informal track to the south.. interestingly regularly illuminated making it an attractive proposition to upgrade to shared use
this muddy track runs parallel to the official footpath around Spital Park and is obviously widely used by locals
Footpath alongside the access road into Hady primary School - too narrow for cycling at the moment, but could be readily increased in width by removal of the horrible pre-cast concrete fence on the south side, and some widening of the path
Footpath alongside the access road into Hady primary School - too narrow for cycling at the moment, but could be readily increased in width by removal of the horrible pre-cast concrete fence on the south side, and some widening of the path
the end of Harvey Road... a teasing piece of land potentially offering a cycleable connection up to Hady Hill and the Hospital perhaps?
Splitter island in the centre of Hady Hill offers an acceptable crossing point, although not controlled
Poor quality gate/kissing gate combination - upgrade needed to match the hardware installed within DCC's adjoining Markham Vale Development
Looking down the steep slope towards the disused railway - steps required here to make safe for foot traffic - other users should be diverted to the south where the gradient is more manageable
This informal path with an adequate surface would successfully link the existing perimeter track with a new path crossing the disused railway
steep slope up from the disused railway... its cycle-able by only the most able. The sensible upgrade is to create safe steps here for foot traffic, and route cycles/horses slightly safe where a slightly longer route exists with manageable ... [more]
crossing point over the long disused railway..the remaining ballast is somewhat uncomfortable underfoot
Narrow bridge over the Doe Lea that needs upgrading to a wider bridge to accommodate shared walking/cycling/horse traffic
Junction of at least two cycleable trails, that could readily be improved, the east-west trail needs upgrading to Multi User Trail to connect Poolsbrook and Markham Vale
