Turn old railway line into cycle path and walking route, says Waterside Cycling Action Group

Turn old railway line into cycle path and walking route, says Waterside Cycling Action Group. New Forest District Council is expected to formally back the scheme. The proposal will go to a vote by the Tory-controlled council at its next full meeting. The Totton to Marchwood stretch is still used for the military port. It was closed to passengers in 1966. Only freight trains used it until 2016 transporting crude oil to Fawley oil refinery. Fawly Watersides Ltd plans to build 1,500 homes on the former power station site. They also want to generate more than 2,000 jobs.
