At this point, roughly halfway along its length, the path is crossed by a road that is associated with the bonded warehouses on either side; as would be expected, the gates on either side of the footpath are closed except on the infrequent occasions when vehicles are using that road; the path itself is not blocked. The road corresponds to the course of a railway line, now long gone. As the 1:25000 map shows, a cycle route (NCN 7) follows the former course of the railway line nearby, but does not do so here, on account of the bonded warehouses; the cycle path goes around them instead.
