With the support of our friends at Kingston Ramblers, we were able to get these vinyl overlays for the very faded (almost to white in some cases) London Loop - Thames Down Link - Hogsmill Valley Walk made a while back - and great to see some up in Kingston town centre (Clattern Bridge) last night.

The original fingerposts vary in size a bit, so they’re not all super neat - but the key thing is the routes are now much easier for everyone to follow.

If you've been out and about on Section 9 of the London Loop recently you might have noticed the path from Cygent Avenue all the way to Baber Bridge has been closed for renovation works since late July.

Alan, one of our volunteers visited the renovation site recently to see the work the council were undertaking first hand to improve the path and create a new entrance/exit at Baber Bridge.

The path should be reopening soon, based on the pictures below it should be worth the wait!
