mickeyw Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Jeez! Surrey CC is really peeing me off with their TROs that claim '4x4 damage' when the evidence looks much more like natural rain water erosion. Take the TRO'd route that runs from Abinger up into Ranmore for example. They seem to have forgotten how exceptionally wet it has been for the last 2 years. I used to be all for seasonal restrained use of green lanes. Now a temporary TRO just appears to be a foot in the door to make the order permanent. Let's see plenty of objections for this one please.

I hope to get my objection in on time .They cannot TRO for the reason of 'wear' as their DUTY under law is to maintain/repair the lane for ALL users ......but they will! because they rely on our ignorance/apathy & lack of financial wherewithall to counter their biased & arrogant proposals http://forums.lr4x4.com/public/style_extra/post_icons/icon7.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mseries3 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Take the TRO'd route that runs from Abinger up into Ranmore for example. Beggars Lane? That don't have a TRO on it....

According to Surrey CC Website anyway - http://surreycc.gov....0of%20BOATs.pdf Beggars Lane did have earlier on this year. I was out in the snow and came upon the TRO signs. It was a temp TRO for 6 months, but these have a nasty habit of becoming permanent. Not been up there for a while so I don't know the latest.

Retroanaconda Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Beggars' TRO was extended from June for another six months. I go around the top and down London Lane into Shere instead I don't think we'll be seeing Beggars Lane open again if I'm honest. http://www.surreycc.gov.uk/sccwebsite/sccwspages.nsf/LookupWebPagesByTITLE_RTF/Drove+Road+Beggars+Lane+and+Sheepwalk+Lane?opendocument Edit: Added link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
