This is the Ramblers plan;Millions of £'s of public money were spent on Natural England's Lostway Project to collect evidence that there is legal proof to reinstate lostways on the definitive map.
Identifying potential lost rights of way is just the start of a long process to put them back on the map. There are four more steps to saving them:
1. Prioritise those paths which add the most benefit for people.
2. Research individual paths to find out if they can be saved.
3. Build applications based on historical evidence.
4. Submit applications by 1st January 2026.
There is plenty of scope to prepare a massive document of anecdotal evidence to support No.1 but 2 and 3 have been covered in the counties Natural Englands Project and this was hushed up, Why?
So what's missing;
The CLA will wait till 2026 then fast track all the applications so that the responsible applicants are caught carrying the costs, using the wealth of individual landowners, who have been brainwashed into thinking RoW devalue land. But who is responsible for these lostways, it is the County Councils, who allowed the interest of local landowner's to Corrupt the creation of the Definitive Map.
Corruption, Corruption, Corruption has got to be exposed. There are 49,000 miles of it that shows the will of Parliament was ignored.
The CLA's opposition, which is well documented, this needs to be discredited.
