Introduction
As part of the process for reviewing our Rights of Way Improvement Plan (ROWIP) and creating our new Rights of Way Improvement Plan for 2025 to 2035, we are undertaking an assessment of the public's existing and future needs. We are undertaking this with key stakeholders including:
- county councillors
- district councils
- town and parish councils
- user groups
- landowner groups
- public and representative bodies
- charitable bodies
We will use this assessment to:
- guide our review of the existing actions contained in the current plan, and
- prepare for new actions to meet the public needs for the future as part of the Draft Lincolnshire County Council Countryside Access and Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2025
We will then submit the draft plan for public consultation and comment prior to developing and approving the final plan.
We have prepared this summary document to help consultees to respond to the consultation about current and future needs. It contains a summary of the main assessment of needs, the key findings and the key actions contained in the Countryside Access and Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2007 to 2012 and the Draft Lincolnshire Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2013 to 2018.
