Crossing or not

I was going to send a link to a footpath I surveyed which had signs saying it had been closed either side of the railway line (as my gps trace indicates), but someone has added an extra bit and a footbridge so I need to resurvey, as there is no bridge on bing.

I revisited the path I mentioned in my previous comment today. It has indeed been diverted, some concrete steps built up either side of the embankment, but it is just a crossing point rather than a bridge. I'm pleased that the path has reopened - I was quite upset at a railway seemingly have the power to make a public footpath pointless. Anyway, thanks to your blog post that will be another improvement to the map (when I get a moment to upload traces and photos of footbridges/kissing gates/steps on the diverted route). And it was an excuse for a countryside walk with my three-next-week year old.
