Signpost unreadable (Brisley FP 16), 26th April

"No Public Access" Signage - Harper's Green, Brisley, 26th April
See the photograph. The notice is on display, just to the north of Brisley Footpath No. 2. Harper's Green is registered common land (CL66) and subject to a statutory right of public access under the Section 2(1) of the Countryside And Rights of Way Act 2000. There are no access restrictions in force (according to http://www.openaccess.naturalengland.org.uk/ ). Section 14 of the 2000 act makes it an offence for any person to place or maintain, on or near access land, a notice containing any false or misleading information likely to deter the public from exercising the statutory right of access.

At grid ref: TF 9484 2064 the byway leaves a track, to head across an overgrown field, but the existence or whereabouts of the byway is far from clear, on the ground. There is an acute need for signage, here, to assist persons unfamiliar with the locality to follow the course of the byway.

Signage needed (Beetley RB 1 and Brisley RB 12), 24th April
The byway leaves an area of woodland here, to head across a field, but, as shown in the photos, there is nothing on the ground to indicate the existence or the whereabouts of the byway, on the ground. There is an acute need for signage, here, to assist persons unfamiliar with the locality to follow the correct course of the byway.

Byway severely overgrown (Beetley RB1), 13th April
See the photograph! Profuse overgrowth renders the physically available carriageway down to a narrow, footpath-like width. Norfolk County Council, it is clear that you are, at most, maintaining this route as though it were a footpath, not a carriageway.

Tree growing out of the carriageway (Beetley RB1), 13th April
Please look at the submitted photograph. The physically available width between the tree and the eastern embankment, shown, is just FOUR FEET. The legal width of the carriageway cannot be this narrow! The tree must be growing out of the carriageway, which constitutes disrepair. Norfolk County Council, it appears that you are maintaining this route as though it were a footpath, rather than a carriageway.

Overgrown bushes (Beetley RB1), 13th April
See the photograph! Overgrown bushes are severely restricting the physically available width and height of the carriageway. Norfolk County Council, please remember that this is a carriageway, not a footpath!

Report on FixMyStreet
Narrow boardwalk on carriageway (Beetley RB1), 12th April
As shown in the photos, there is a very narrow boardwalk, barely 17 inches wide, along the carriageway, installed in the middle of the carriageway. Norfolk County Council, why has such a narrow boardwalk been installed in this carriageway. It has presumably been installed with the aim of aiding passage by pedestrians (although it is narrow, even for that purpose). But how are equestrians, and vehicles supposed to negotiate this obstacle. In general, it appears that you are maintaining Beetley RB1 as though it were a footpath, rather than a carriageway.
