Description
Hi, I walked Bilwic One and didn't feel happy walking one bit of the route with my kids because it goes along a narrow verge next to a fast road and the sharp bend makes it difficult to see what's coming. We therefore created this alternative route, which starts the same as Bilwic One and, when you get to Ramsden Heath, turns off north to reach Billericay another way.
I couldn't work out how to exactly pin the start and end points to the required co-ordinates but I've tried to get as close as possible.
Best wishes, Lin

Surveys
We are working to build-up a picture of what routes look like. To do that we are asking volunteers to survey routes so that we can communicate features, obstacles and challenges that may make a route desirable or not.
Slow Ways surveyors are asked to complete some basic online training, but they are not vetted. If you are dependent on the survey information being correct in order to complete a route, we recommend that you think critically about the information provided. You may also wish to wait until more than one survey has been completed.
Help people know more about this route by volunteering to submit a survey.
