    4. The University roundabout (or island as it is known around here) pedestrian crossings. This can be busy at certain times of the year and from here the pavement is shared with cycles. If you are here during the day, you can walk in the University grounds parallel to this route, but it is quieter and parts can be muddy. 1.2 km from start — 02 May 2024

All of this can be walked/wheeled around however. 2.9 km from start — 02 May 2024

    8. Abbey Street pavement after the Dunkirk crossing. For those with limited mobility, it may be better to stay on this side of the road and to cross at the Abbey Bridge roundabout crossing. This is because the reviewed crossing at Abbey Street/Abbey Bridge is quieter more pedestrian friendly on this side of the road. 3 km from start — 02 May 2024
