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.

21 Oct 2022Two problems with this route, one minor one major.
From Bilston, joining the canal the route tells you to join in the wrong direction and actually encourages you to cross to the wrong side of what is actually quite a busy road. The way to join the canal is obvious and this problem is annoyong but wouldn't have failed it.
At Wolverhampton the suggested route from the canal simply does not exist and the means to access the meeting place is somewhat more complicated. It's for this reason the route is a failure.
