The path is super kid friendly, including the Blair St crossing if supervised with playgrounds fore, aft and midships. Info boards at either end and a look out over the creek. A wide concrete path leads to other cycle paths. An easy walk from the eastern carpark end there and back. There is a huge playground / BBQ / Fitness station being built at this end.

The track sections that are dotted appear to be offcuts rather than original and there is no original rail infrastructure other than possibly a small section at the creek.

If you are in the area it's worthwhile a visit.

Blair St now has a safety island where the trail crosses it and I was surprised to see cars stopping for me despite the lack of zebra stripes.

The Meadowlink Rail Trail, along the old Broadstore Line, is a good way of riding around the suburbs just south of the Metropolitan Ring Road. It is connected to the M80 Trail via the Merlynston Creek Trail through Jack Roper Reserve. Further developments would be a tremendous benefit as well, such as a cycling overpass of the Craigieburn and North East Railway Lines at Broadmeadows Station, a safer crossing of Blair St and a connection across Merlynston Creek past Maygar Barracks through to the Upfield Line.
