The route has signed links to Burton Railway Station and runs close to the Brewery buildings which dominate the town.

At Donisthorpe there is a signed link to the National Forest Cycle Centre at Hicks Lodge, though an off-road route via Moira Furnace is currently under construction.

The route diverts briefly under the A42 on approach to Measham; after a further mile the off-road section ends at the Library and Leisure Centre.

route for HS2 rail link passes through Measham and if this goes ahead in its initial format and will bring a significant impact to the village.
