A Pictorial Record of the Construction of National Cycle Route 24 Through Radstock

Week 3

Route is now fully tarmac'd from the Tynings Hill access point as far as Braysdown Bridge. The major earthmoving mentioned last week is the construction of a deviation off the old railway trackbed around Paglinch Farm, as farm buildings occupy the trackbed at this point. The deviation ends on the tarmac track leading from Paglinch farm to Shoscombe Vale.

No new work done on the route to the south of Radstock this week.

This set of pictures were taken on Saturday 21st February 2004.
