How wide should a public footpath be?

In the first of our Advent Answers series, we sat down with Carol Ramsden in our Planning and Environment Team to ask 'How wide should a public footpath be?' Every day, from now until Christmas, our experts will be answering one of the most frequently asked questions from our website. For further help with Rights of Way or planning law, you can read our legal update on the subject: https://www.birketts.co.uk/legal-update/are-there-width-regulations-for-footpaths/ Alternatively, please contact Carol at carol-ramsden@birketts.co.uk or on 01473 406338
