Seaton Valley

The design and construction of a mixed-use path for Plymouth City Council. The contract included the installation of two bridges and 1.5km of cycle path.

  • 300m x 3m wide cycle path with Tarmacadam Surfacing

  • 1200m x 3m wide cycle path with unbound path gravel surfacing

  • 10m x3m wide vehicle bridge - steel frame with oak cladding and decking

  • 5m x 1.5m wide footbridge - timber frame bridge with oak decking

  • 40m x 2m high gabion retaining wall

  • Drainage

Update November 2022

The one year maintenance period for the works has now expired and Plymouth City Council and Avon Construction Ltd carried out an inspection. Prior to the inspection there have been a few weeks of very heavy rainfall and the paths held up well under the heavy rainfall conditions and no defects were found.

The new paths are proving to be a well used asset for the local residents.

We hope to return to complete Phase II works in 2023.

Update February 2023

We are pleased to see that the Seaton Valley Nature Path has now been officially opened to the public. Although the path has been open for a number of weeks, it has now received the finishing touches with tree planting and hedge laying all completed by volunteers.
