To make this Plan sound, we suggest that this Policy contains an aspiration to link its open spaces by enhancing the public rights of way network and upgrading them to enable their use by more user groups eg cyclists and equestrians.

Para 5.184 mentions the need for connectivity between open areas of informal recreation via the rights of way network and this is of course welcomed; however, much of the good multi-user provision is fragmented and not connected, and Policy BE23 should contain an aspiration to enhance the links for all user groups to Brentwood's considerable amount of public open space.
