Notice is hereby given that the Staffordshire County Council, on 10/9/24 made an Order the effect of which will be to prohibit any pedestrians from proceeding along the following lengths of footpath: – The full length of Public Footpath No. 5 Farewell and Chorley Parish, from its junction with Lower Ln in a generally southerly direction for approximately 235 metres to its junction with Public Footpath No. 4 Burntwood Parish, at Maple Brook. – The full length of Public Footpath No. 4 Burntwood Parish, from its junction with Public Footpath No. 5 Farewell and Chorley Parish at Maple Brook, in a generally southerly direction for approximately 390 metres to its junction with Padbury Ln. The closure is required under the provision of the Road Traffic Regulations Act 1984 Section 14 (1) (b) due to damage to the footbridge over Maple Brook, as a result of the erosion of the embankment. No alternative route is available. 

A plan will be displayed on site to show the length of path to be closed and the unaffected rights of way in the area. This Order will come into operation on 12/9/24 and will remain in force for a period of six months or until the risk of danger to the public is over, whichever is the earlier. If necessary, after six months, the Order may be extended for a further period with the approval of the Secretary of State.
