Neither NE95 or NE02 provide for protection of access rights for the classes of users entitled to enjoy the network and spaces within it which is an existing priority and will become more important.
It would be a patent absurdity to have strategic policies in the Local Plan, which forms a key part of the Council’s Policy Framework, that open spaces will be protected, and where necessary enhanced, and that all GBI spaces will be well managed when the legal rights held by the Council as landowner for an easement and enforcement of building scheme covenants over the unadopted part of Glanthams Road which would enable essential access and management of its woodland open space are so neglected as to frustrate the Council’s own policy, and potentially consign the access to over 9 acres of open space to unlawful encroachments. The Plan should make clear provision to protect and enhance access for suitable classers of users to such spaces.
