Public Rights of Way (PROW)
A public right of way is a route over land which the public has a legal right to use at any time. Some paths may be surfaced although most are tracks across countryside owned by landowners.Report a problem with a public right of way
Highway and verge maintenance
If the issue is next to a road or highways this is dealt with by a different team.
Please note; Growth from a boundary hedge that separates a field or land from the road is the responsibility of the landowner.
We do have the power to take action on behalf of the landowner when appropriate.

The cutting of road verges is divided into:
- Rural – for roads with speed limits above 30 mph. These are maintained by the Cormac highways team
- Urban areas – for roads with speed limits under 30 mph, are maintained by the Cormac environmental team
