Increase in people using the local public rights of way network

13/07/2020

Since the Covid-19 lockdown it has been fantastic to see an increase in the number of people using the local public rights of way network for walking, cycling and riding. We hope that the local community are enjoying the benefits that come with outdoor exercise, and that this continues in the long term.

This increased use has however highlighted some issues, such as a general lack of understanding of the different types of rights of way and where people can or cannot cycle. In light of this, please see the attached guides for your information. We hope that you find these useful.
