Looks like a decent job is being done where the level change previously meant a steep gradient. Many (most?) of the kerbstones are now set along the section westwards.

Junction where Jubilee Path through Marleigh will join the new route on the old railway alignment, and retain the link to Tiptree Close.

Riverside Cambridge This area has become a bit of a caravan park, and this vehicle has a rack on the back which could catch a passing cyclist.

Cycle and foot entrance to the Open University from Ouzel Valley Park, Milton Keynes. Nasty sign telling you to get off the type of cycle-able paths that are common throughout the rest of Milton Keynes.

New modal filter being installed on Church Street, Chesterton.

Cycle/maintenance track alongside the Cambridgeshire Guided Busway. A white line has appeared separating the track from the busway, up to here but no further east.

Turn right on NCN route 51 entering Milton Keynes

Junction left to the Abbey-Chesterton Bridge (Chisholm Trail) and right to the riverside route (NCN route 51)

Dreadfully restrictive junction arrangement on the link between the Chisholm Trail and NCN route 51 - many people will be cutting across the grass to the right rather than turning so sharply on the asphalt.

Steps between the Chisholm Trail and NCN route 51 - it's a longer way round on a bike.

This looks like the top-layer tarmac where the path beside the brook meets NCN51 (or becomes part of rerouted NCN51?). I couldn't tell what the circular inset and lettering (left foreground) signify.

NCN route 51 from Winslow to Milton Keynes (and temporary signs for East West Rail construction)

'Road crossing ahead' sign on NCN route 51 - if you haven't noticed it by this point you really must be in a dream.

'Bird mesh' above jetty looks OK. (Not yet fitted on north side)

As expected, installation of bird mesh involves removal of the tall wooden fence that's been making it more difficult to spy on progress

A large rectangular hole in the path alongside the realigned brook: site of next cattlegrid?

Trail alongside realigned brook on Ditton Meadow: first patch of tarmac done.

Trail river bridge north ramp: base tarmac done, top layer still to do?

NCN51 at slip road. Very hard to see if something is coming whilst on the cargo trike. Left lane should be closed to improve sightlines and reduce motor vehicle speeds. https://t.co/yqGdAf7kmx

NCN51 alongside West End Road, Ipswich

I guess that this (alongside the Marleigh haul road) is the new connection to Newmarket Road for the Jubilee path, bypassing the P&R site.

Scope for estate agents to get creative re Marleigh properties: "premium Jubilee Path active travel route on your doorstep ..."

Further components being fitted on top of ramp sidewalls at Chisholm Trail river bridge.

Additional obstruction at cattle grid adjacent to ncn51 on Ditton Meadows. Fixed at oblique angle, so reasonably benign in one direction but potentially hostile in the other direction.

It's a bit counter intuitive, but a group of cyclists on NCN route 51 seems to have stopped for a snack at the A14 services.

Resurfacing on NCN route 51

Badly-positioned new bollard on ncn51 is all-but invisible to approaching eastbound riders.

Gate and railing at cattle grid on Stourbridge Common leave ncn51 with a clear width of just 1.15m. The adjacent gate when open leaves just 1.0m.

One (of previously two) cattle grids has at some time been removed where ncn51 crosses Coldham's Brook on Stourbridge Common.
