==Following the path== The southern end of the Upfield Bike Path connects to the [[Capital City Trail]] on the old [[Inner Circle railway line]] reservation which provides access to the [[Merri Creek Trail]] at [[Rushall railway station]]; and in the other direction it passes near the [[Melbourne Zoo]] before connecting with the [[Moonee Ponds Creek Trail]]. Alternatively, at Park Street cyclists can join the Royal Parade bike path and on road bike lane which provides access to [[University of Melbourne]] main campus in [[Parkville, Victoria|Parkville]]. City of Moreland Council has reported the number of people counted riding on the Upfield Bike Path and [[Sydney Road]] at Park Street has almost quadrupled from 1992 to 2003. The 24-hour weekday average was 804 in February 2008.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/Home/BicyclesPedestrians/DevelopingBicycleNetworks/CyclingDataAndStatistics.htm |title=VicRoads - cycling statistics |access-date=2008-07-14 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080429191010/http://www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/Home/BicyclesPedestrians/DevelopingBicycleNetworks/CyclingDataAndStatistics.htm |archive-date=2008-04-29 |url-status=dead }}</ref> The Upfield path parallels Sydney Road shopping strip in [[Brunswick, Victoria|Brunswick]] and [[Coburg, Victoria|Coburg]], and is often used by pedestrians and cyclists for shopping, dog walking as well as commuter cycling.
