Bournemouth: the dead end of Durrant Road

Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 4 Nov 2016

Durrant Road was severed to allow the Wessex Way, town-centre by-pass, to be built, in the early 1970s. It is appreciable from here that the continuation of the road was past the house in the distance, although the road name changed, as it still does, to Central Drive at this point. After the house on the right, a public footpath heads alongside the dual carriageway and on to Braidley Road below it; the path also links up with another to the end of Central Drive, so pedestrian access is available to the opposite side of the main road. See Image for the view along the footpath, with links to further photos along the route.
