Interesting road to cycle along, a lot of the surface is very worse for wear and showing signs of subsidence. Good spot to see interesting birds on the fields too depending on the time of year.

Road cycling

The road is currently car free as it is closed to cars at the bridge over the Cheshire Lines. Concrete barriers stop cars getting through but you can still get through on a bike.

Beware though that they are intermittently working on the bridge - before Christmas I came down from Haskayne to find that I couldn't get through - I therefore had to retrace my steps.
