Severn Bridge route question

[Sergeant Pluck]

On behalf of a colleague who is cycling roughly Bristol to Fishguard, how does he get on and off the cycle path across the Severn Bridge? Map link appreciated!

[Chris N]

Approach the bridge from the SE along the B4461.  Follow cyclepath around the RH side of the roundabout and get on the cycle path on the upstream side of the bridge.

The cycle path then runs N alongside the A466 all the way to the A48.

Excellent chris n, thanks.

get on the cycle path on the upstream side of the bridge.

Isn't the upstream side the downstream side sometimes?  (Sorry to be a bore).

You're hafren a laugh aren't you?

Well, I understood it even if nobody else did.

I would add when he gets to the A466 stay on the cycle path on the right side of the road. Half way up go through the hedge and down Malthern Road.  At the end of Malthern road turn right to the A48.  Avoids a hill and a sometimes busy roundabout.  Sorry about being a little vague it some time since I have done it.

Through this gap and left, left again at end and under the A466, down Mathern Road, then turn right through Newton Green. Unless you want to turn left to bury Tewdric!
