The view from the bridge [2]
Looking south along Monksdale Road from the bridge carrying the Two Tunnels Greenway over the road.
The Greenway is the former trackbed of the Somerset & Dorset Joint Railway which ran from Bath to Bournemouth. The heavily engineered railway closed in 1966. Part of the trackbed became a linear park whilst further south it was used as an informal footpath. A campaign to re-open the route as a shared-use path started in 2005 and the Two Tunnels Greenway opened in April, 2013.

Monksdale Road footbridge, Bath
The green footbridge carries a Linear Park path above the road. Linear Park occupies part of the former SDR (Somerset & Dorset Railway) line which ran from Bath Green Park Station (now the site of Sainsbury's) to Bournemouth. The line closed in 1966. After considerable construction work and the closure of a tunnel entrance, the area was laid out as a ribbon of countryside through the city and was planted with many indigenous plants.
