26 Apr 2024Straightforward route with some green spaces. Pedestrian crossing at South Lane/Malden Road junction. Coop food store at Malden Manor.

18 Apr 2024Good urban route, through pleasant residential streets.
Started at Tolworth - many big A roads here but route gets away from them pronto.
There’s a short green section where it passes Hogsmill river, then Malden Manor station, with refreshments and a supermarket.
Finishes up past Fulham football training ground (fans hanging around at the gates), and across a level crossing to Motspur Park station.
Step free, direct, zero problems.
(Access to Motspur Park station currently not step free but will be when ongoing work to put in lift completes.).

01 Apr 2024I walked from Motspur Park to Tolworth.
Warning. "Due to construction works for the Motspur Park station Access For All Scheme, the Ticket Office will be closed from Friday 19th May until Spring 2024".
And there is no access into the station from the East side which is where the Slow Ways node is. See picture.
Also the Tolworth roundabout pedestrian underpass is also being improved (Nature themed murals and birds on fences) and may be subject to closures for resurfacing and landscaping.
Both projects are near to completion (31/3/24).
After crossing the railway there is a short section of busy road before turning right into quieter suburban streets with wide pavements. Many pavements run offset from the quiet roads with lawn and trees in between, small parklet greens are also present making the walk quite pleasant. The River Hogsmill crossing provides an opportunity to divert on a nature trail. After crossing the river more suburban streets lead to the Tolworth roundabout which will be quite nice when complete.
A short sweet route between these two towns.
All surfaces are paved, no hills (unless you count the underpass slopes) very suitable for wheelchairs etc.
