Section 2 - The Definitive Map and Statement

Representation ID: 5

Received: 07/02/2009

Respondent: Dr P D Wadey

Representation Summary:

The ROWIP should state how many applications for modification orders have yet to be determined by the council, and what plans are in place to reduce the backlog.
It could also usefully note that members of the public are entitled to complain to the Secretary of State where an applicaion for a modification order has not be determined within one year. The addition of this text would enable ROWIP readers to understand why some activities (duties) have to be undertaken by the Council before others (duties without time penalties, and powers).

Section 3 - The Network

Representation ID: 6

Received: 07/02/2009

Respondent: Dr P D Wadey

Representation Summary:

The categories recorded section shoud also include the Restricted Byway as, although Southend might not have any today, it is highly likley to once modification orders are being processed.

The text refers to permissive paths. It is not clear whether these paths are permissive, or whether they are highways which just have not yet been recorded on the definitive map. A definition should be provided. If they are just 'unrecorded highways' then 'permissive' is the wrong word to use.

Section 4 - Current Provision

Representation ID: 7

Received: 07/02/2009

Respondent: Dr P D Wadey

Representation Summary:

For the purposes of the ROWIP, the PRoW network includes the routes recorded on the DM&S as stated, but it also includes routes that should be recorded on the DM&S (but have not yet been) and routes that are desirable to create as PRoW to complete networks. The text should be altered to reflect this. I am particularly concerned that there has so far been no recognition that the DM&S is incomplete. A cross refernce to the section of the plan where this is mentioned might be appropriate.

Analysis of Network

Representation ID: 8

Received: 07/02/2009

Respondent: Dr P D Wadey

Representation Summary:

"Appropriate" is teh worng word to use in "Due to the urban nature of the Borough it is very difficult to create additional off-road bridleways, although consideration will be given where appropriate." A better word would be "possible" as "appropriate" always gives the council the ability to decline any bridleway request. Something more objective, or with the presumption of equestrian inclusion if possible, is required.

Local Transport Policy 2006-2011 (LTP2)

Representation ID: 9

Received: 07/02/2009

Respondent: Dr P D Wadey

Representation Summary:

I would like to see the ROWIP say "The ROWIP will assist in meeting this vision and in extending it to horse riders as such use was also promoted by the Countryside Commission when they invented the Greenways conept." in place of the similarly starting line under the heading 'The Walking and Cycling Strategies'. It is a travesty that horse use, which was a fundamental part of the Greenways Strategy promoted by the Commission is quietly being deleted from further deployment of the Greenways Concept in this part of Essex and Southend.

Received: 07/02/2009

Respondent: Dr P D Wadey

Representation Summary:

Object to Core Action C. The text should note that as bridleways and byways are such a small part of the recorded PRoW network, more effort will be placed on creating bridleways. It should also record the fact that pedal cyclists can use bridleways by virtue of s.30 Countryside Act 1968, and hence that creation of bridleways can also assist with joining up networks for cyclists.

Section 9 - Funding

Representation ID: 12

Received: 07/02/2009

Respondent: Dr P D Wadey

Representation Summary:

In respect of the statutory duties, a commitment to achieving them by a specified date should be given. Failure to give due dates would imply that the Council didn't wish to be held to account, which I am sure is not the case.
