Loose gravel is a bad surface for cycleways, as it can create slips and falls and increase risk of puncture. Here we can see that it is also not very attractive, because it gets thrown out of the path and embedded in the ground next to it. Regular maintenance is required to top it up, which would be unnecessary if a solid smooth surface was used. The path is also not wide enough for walking and cycling.
