The government is abolishing the 2031 deadline to legally register public rights of way! 🙌 This means that thousands of our off-road routes will no longer vanish in seven years’ time. We’re hugely relieved by this news, having spent more than six years lobbying for change and safeguarding these public assets. With your help, we have been able to save over 3,700 bridleways and byways from being lost for good. While we’re so pleased to no longer be working towards a looming deadline, we will continue to collaborate with our brilliant volunteers to carry on this important work to protect our access network. #KeepBritainRiding
