[Members] Fw: IMBA Update 26. May 06

[Lewis, David]

This only applies in Englandshire. In Scotland we can go anywhere we
please on bikes as long as we respect the land reform act.

Hi all
 
Does the RUPP thing mean we can now ride on the West Highland Way
without hikers moaning at us?
 
Steve- off bike due to man flu :-(
 

	
	RUPP's are Dead - Long Live Restricted Byways.
	Restricted byways were first introduced by the Countryside and
Rights of Way Act 2000 and the relevant provisions  took effect on 2 May
in order to dovetail with the commencement of parts of the Natural
Environment and Rural Communities Act. All RUPP's are now Restricted
byways which can be used by pedestrians, horse-riders, cyclists, and
carriage drivers. In addition, cyclists can now claim new Restricted
Byways following 20 years of unchallenged use.
