Any person offending against the byelaw shall be
liable on summary conviction to a fine not
exceeding five pounds.
The Byelaw was made in 1947 and therefore
there has been various changes to the built
environment but also transportation modes. The
Council are therefore seeking to revoke this
byelaw under The Byelaws (alternative
Procedure) (England) Regulations 2016 and put
in place other measures to control cycling and
wheeling on the footpaths listed above, where it
is deemed necessary.
If you have any representations on the
above please make them within 30 days of
this notice either in writing to
