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.

31 Oct 2023As it is this route can't be walked. Note this review is based on Market Drayton to Whitchurch .The first path coming out of Market Drayton has been diverted. It also makes sense to take a slightly different route after this. There are problems on the next section, then there is a path that is on private land, is not a PROW and there is a notice prohibiting its use. The alternative is to walk for a few hundred yards along a dual carriage way stretch of the A41 with no pavement and a lumpy grass verge. There were other problems too. See the suggested route Whitmar two to mitigate these problems.
