That's complete BS, we just finished a 4 mile walk from Bradford thru ST. Catherine's and it was the most beautiful and quiet walk we have been on. No noise. We went for a 3 mile walk yesterday thru Marsh Bend, it was also beautiful, but did get very loud near the turnpike. All the walking areas in the villages is nice, each area has it's plus and minus. People from the north say its better up there. And people from the south end say its better down here. You really need try each area, and see witch one YOU like the best.
