However, if Public Safety demands a temporary closure, application should be made at least 8 weeks in advance to: The Public Rights of Way Mapping Team at prowclosures@worcestershire.gov.uk. Obstructing a Public Right of Way without a formal closure constitutes an offence under the Highways Act 1980.
