what you should know!
What is a 'Green Lane'? The term 'Green Lane' has no legal meaning. However, it is generally taken to mean a Highway along which vehicles are permitted but which has not had a hard surface applied to it. There are several places where these routes are officially recorded. But there are also many routes that are not recorded or are recorded as not having public vehicular rights.

Recording of Public Rights:
GLASS campaigns for all routes to be appropriately signed and recorded. This is important not just to protect the rights that currently exist, but also to minimise conflict between different user groups and conflict between users and landholders.
Research:Nearly all groups agree that only a small percentage of the public network is currently recorded. The remainder has been "lost" in the passage of time. GLASS is involved in researching these lost routes (this includes under-recording) and applying for selected, useable routes to be recorded correctly. |
