The walk runs between Doust Way and Cory's Creek, a total of 1.5km (just under one mile) and is graded as easy.

It is suitable for children, wheelchair-users and dog walkers and there is access for pedestrians and cyclists only.

Although it is a temporary walk, it consists of a 10m width of tarmac with a safety handrail along the length of the river wall.

This provides a barrier between the walk and the river without spoiling the views.

The three entry points are at:

• Cory's Road/Gas House Road;
• Blue Boar Lane;
• Doust Way.

The public has access to the path but not the adjoining land, by permission of Medway Council.

Pedestrians and cyclists can use the riverside path at their own risk and the council can close the path at any time without warning.

If you use the path, please take your litter home and do not allow your dogs to foul the path or adjoining land.

Swimming is strictly forbidden.

Please note that Castle View Business Centre and Acorn Shipyard continue to trade as usual.
