Preston To Longridge Disused Railway Cycle Route

Evidence of work in progress to extend the current cycle route further into Grimsargh along the old railway line and under the old road railway bridge on Preston Road where this photo was taken.
The aim of the first phase of the project is the development of a shared use footpath/cyclepath along the former railway from the M6 footbridge (near Sulby Drive, Riblbleton, Preston) to Preston Road in Grimsagh Village. This new path will link with the existing cycle path which runs from West View Leisure Centre in Preston to the M6 bridge.
Further long term phases of the project may include reclamation of the disused operational railway line from West View Leisure Centre to Preston City Centre and the creation of a signed route from Grimsargh Village to Longridge
