Bristol & Bath Railway Path
'The Bristol & Bath Railway Path was constructed on the bed of the former Midland Railway by cycling charity Sustrans between 1979 and 1986 ... Today the Path is owned by Bristol City Council, South Gloucestershire Council and Bath & North East Somerset Council. Some small sections are owned by Sustrans. The work of maintaining and developing the Path is supported by dedicated volunteers and is co-ordinated through the Avon Frome Partnership.
'The Path now carries at least one million trips a year.'
