Route signs at the Whitemoss Roundabout for the cycle route to Brancumhall, but the Health Centre pointed to is not the closest health centre to this location, and so could be confusing.

#107755, nearby

The route finally arrives at the Brancumhall Estate, turning right off of Morrishall Road into Galloway Road.

#107754, nearby

The route to Brancumhall turns onto Morrishall Road. There was no indication that this route (which made its way along Calderwood Road on the footway) is not on-road along this section of fairly busy and fast road.

A dropped kerb on Alison Lea blocked by car parking.

Give way at Capelrig Drive, with space for a waiting car.

Both paths have cycle signs on them, so possibly could divert if a heavily laden bus pulls up and starts unloading, but otherwise the left path goes directly to the school and the right is for following Calderwood Road.

Cross Carlyle Drive behind a waiting car.
