Gravetye Path 4

Wide tarmac estate road


Challenging for wheelchairs
The road is between 4.1 to 4.8 metres wide with a good condition and reasonably flat, tarmac surface. Gradients do not exceed 10% and for most of the road cross falls vary up to 5%, but in a few places rise to 9% to the left of the carriageway. There are unavoidable speed bumps, not exceeding 2cm, made from thick paint. The road is generally quiet, though vehicles should always be expected. There is good visibility on this section of the road and speed is restricted to 20mph. The road is too narrow to allow vehicles to pass wheelchairs and pedestrians with a 2-metre clearance (i.e. the road is less than 5.5 metres wide). There are many passing places where the road plus usable verge is at least 5.5 metres, though to access the verges in many places involves a small drop from the road surface to the grass. The verges themselves are in a mixed condition.

This is approximately 290 metres long with a surface
The path camber Overall reasonably flat with cross falls in places up to 5% and in a few places the cross fall rises to 9%, but can be avoided.
The narrowest point: 410 cm wide
