c) There must be no reduction in the width of the PROW.
d) No additional barriers (e.g., stile, gate, or fence) may be placed on or across a PROW without the written consent of the Highway Authority.
Planning permission does not authorise anyone to change, obstruct or close a public right of way.
Building materials must not be stored on PROW and work to carry out the development should not obstruct the footpath at any time.
Vehicle movements and parking must not unreasonably interfere with the public’s use of PROW.
It is an offence for any person to drive a motor vehicle on a PROW without lawful authority (Section 34 of the Road Traffic Act 1988). The developer is responsible for ensuring any vehicles using PROW, in connection with the development, during and after construction have the appropriate authorisation. They may wish to seek legal advice on the matter.
