Clear That Trail
If you can’t get down a right of way, it’s obstructed. Fallen logs, overgrown bushes or locked gates are all obstructions, and the local Council has a duty to keep the trails clear for everyone to use. Councils can’t be everywhere, and if they don’t know about a blocked trail, they can’t fix it. So if you want to get it cleared, you have to report it. Clearthattrail.org.uk contacts the right people for you, to get the trails cleared quickly and easily.
