The cycleway runs for 1.3km from Engine Fields to Ghyll Royd and follows most of the length of the former Yeadon branch of the Midland Railway that closed in 1964. The original cutting must have been partly infilled, as there certainly isn't room for a standard gauge train to fit under the bridge at the present ground level. New Road is the main A65 Leeds to Kendal road.
