This could be a useful link to Tesco and the north side of Helston.
This cut-through is the only route into Helston that doesn't require using the A394 bypass, and should have been built for cycling from the start.
Dropped kerb, but barriers too - this cut-through is the only route into Helston that doesn't require using the A394 bypass, and should have been built for cycling from the start.
New housing off the Helston bypass - car-dominated, of course, but with traffic-calming and the roads are relatively narrow and don't encourage fast driving.

The shared-use path alongside the A3083 past RNAS Culdrose needs to be extended to this roundabout - with a safe crossing to the left.
End of the shared-use path around RNAS Culdrose - this needs to be extended to the roundabout at the south end of the base.
When I was young (about 50 years ago) this was a T-junction with the road to Gweek and Mawgan to the left - now diverted around the south side of RNAS Culdrose.
The cycleway is in a bad state south from the entrance to RNAS Culdrose.
