Tykeswater Lane
E-mail sent to Dawn Grocock, HBC on 25/08/22
Dear Dawn Grocock,
Elstree and Borehamwood Green Belt Society are still greatly concerned about the condition of Tykeswater Lane which is still suffering from litter dumping and damage due to the walking surface from wheeled vehicle access.
We fully support the complaints from our member Ken Herbert. Unless all wheeled vehicle access is barred there will always be a risk to pedestrians from rutted and unsafe surfaces. If this is not possible for a Byway it should be reclassified as a footpath.
Please expedite the clearance of unsightly rubbish as soon as possible.
With best wishes
Ann Goddard Chair E&B Green Belt Society
A response was received, that we are not at liberty to publish.
However, we can advise that the order to gate and restrict access to the footpath / byway received objections so could not be passed. Also, although the litter is of concern, as the pathway is damaged HBC cannot access the litter to remove it.
Correspondence is ongoing and others have been contacted for further assistance.
If members have any evidence or experiences of this footpath / byway, please do send them to us at ebgbstreasurer@gmail.com
