Agenda item

Sue Smith set out the report to update the Forum on the consultations for the review of open access land exclusions.

The first three reviews have been completed, with the variation made as proposed on the direction at West Nab.  The consultation at Hollins Hill relates to an exclusion of dogs whilst cattle are calving.  Further discussions with the landowner have taken place to assess if this is still appropriate, with a conditional requirement to retain the permissive path.

Summary of discussion

The works at Swan and Limer Rakes are completed, with the route now open and a Traffic Regulation Order in place to prohibit vehicular access. There is no access to the south of Hollins Farm.  The direction at Hollins Hill has provided a link route to the access land.  Gates have been upgraded as the route is well used. 

Action:  The Peak District LAF approved the consultation response set out in Appendix 1 – Review of Statutory Direction Restricting Access at West Nab.

Action:  The Peak District LAF agreed to make a response to the consultation set out in Appendix 2 – Review of Statutory Direction at Hollins Hill.
