text: Hi Gregory,
  High-res Strava heat-map activity data is pretty clear that this footpath heads North, which matches Mapillary imagery from the A1 (no sign of a finger post sign, only an armco barrier for the under-bridge).

  I've therefore extended the way and suggest closing the note.

  Thanks and Happy Mapping,
