I could see the argument for using gravel to resurface one section of Douglas Footpath but I am rather surprised to see it being used to repair the tow path from River Lane to just beyond the new bridge to Douglas Footpath. The reason that the tow path needs repairing here is because it floods regularly and gravel is a poor defence against that.
