Riding fro Brunswick to Docklands

I’m keen to start riding from Brunswick to Docklands for my work commute. I did a test run yesterday, and some sections of the capital city trail felt quite creepy. As a solo woman riding, I’m vaguely worried about it.

Can anyone provide insight in to what it’s like between Royal Park and Macaulay stations along the Capital City trail during the week? Are there quite a few commuters using it? I’d be riding roughly between 8am-9am and 5pm - 6pm a few times a week.

Also keen if anyone can provide insight into the terrible bobby pin turn by Flemington Bridge station. Going into the city was ok, but coming back to Brunswick would be tough - any way to avoid this?

If anyone has suggestions for a different route altogether I’m all ears too. I’m just keen to stick to dedicated bike paths or quiet streets as much as possible.

Thank you!
