For many years, Donnington Bridge was just a footpath across the river Thames. However, in the post war period, the need for a connecting road between Abingdon Road and Iffley Road grew. The road is now often congested due to traffic levels crossing the river. A cycle path gives cyclists chance to beat the rush hour traffic.
