The left hand path is the long-established footpath over to Swingate. As part of the development of the Nottingham Business Park, a second footpath has been established running parallel to it. There is a 2-wire fence between the two paths, already substantially decayed. The new path leads to a light-controlled pedestrian crossing, so presumably the intention was to supersede the older path, although as can be seen this is still very well used.
