The applicant should note the National Planning Policy Framework by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, particularly paragraph 105, to ensure that planning policies protect and enhance public rights of way. We wish to draw your attention to Public Right of Way (PRoW) Hanbury HB-696 which crosses your property. The legal obligations are listed below. The safety of the public using the rights of way is to be ensured at all times. The Definitive Map is a minimum record of public rights of way and does not preclude the possibility that unrecorded public rights may exist, nor that higher rights may exist than those shown. Work undertaken to carry out the development should not obstruct the footpath at any time. However, if public safety demands a temporary closure, application should be made at least 6 weeks in advance, unless an emergency situation arises, by contacting PROWclosures@worcestershire.gov.uk. Any PRoW surfaces disturbed during the development must be reinstated to their original condition or to a specification agreed in advance by this department. This should not be taken as permission to disturb the surface intentionally. Vehicular access is coincident with the definitive line of Hanbury HB-696 therefore the applicant should make themselves satisfied that any vehicle using the existing access has a right to do so. It may be prudent to seek legal advice on the matter because under section 34 of the Road Traffic Act 1988, any person who drives a motor vehicle on a public right of way, without lawful authority, commits an offence. The grant of planning consent does in no way entitle developers to obstruct a public right of way. No additional barriers can be placed across the rights of way. No stile, gate, fence or other structure should be created on, or across, a public right of way without written consent of the Highway Authority. There must be no diminution in the width of the rights of way available for use by the public. No disturbance of, or change to, the surface of the paths or part thereof should be carried out without the written consent of the PROW team (this includes laying concrete, tarmac or similar). The County Council is responsible for maintaining rights of way only to a standard suitable for their usual public use. Therefore any damage to the surface of the PRoW and repairs of such must adhere to Highway Authority specifications. Buildings materials must not be stored on the rights of way. Vehicle movements and parking to be arranged so as not to unreasonably interfere with the public’s use of the rights of way.
