Policies CS5, CS16, CS20, DM5, DM17 and DM34 promote the development of the Rights of Way Network. Useful supporting text exists at paragraphs 8.63 and 9.99. However an amendment is required to protect the Public Rights of Way Network. Suggest amending DM28 by adding 'Rights of Way' to the title and add text at the end: 'Development which may affect Rights of Way will not be permitted unless it can demonstrate how it protects or enhances the network. Where development cannot avoid detriment to the Rights of Way Network, it should demonstrate how suitable alternative provision will be made.'
