The former Newport to Cowes railway line is now a cycle route. Here it ends abruptly although the railway used to continue for another half a mile into the centre of Cowes but this is as far as the cycle route goes before it takes to residential streets. The road was built after the closure of the railway, thus severing the former embankment. My thanks to a former resident for this information.
