open spaces society pleased about new plans for hidden highways
The Open Spaces Society is pleased that Defra is today (Monday 14 May) launching a public consultation about plans to make it easier to get England’s official map of public paths up to date.

There are many public footpaths, bridleways and byways which are highways in law but are not shown on the map and are thus hidden and secret. The process for putting them on the map can be long and tortuous, and much of the work falls on the surveying authorities (county and unitary councils).
