This cycleway follows part of the disused railway on the edge of the Memorial Park in Willenhall. The line was opened in 1872 between Wolverhampton and Walsall via Wednesfield and Willenhall. It was closed to passenger traffic in 1931. Closure to goods traffic is believed to be in the early 1960s though a source suggests the slightly earlier date of 1958.
