Changes to public rights of way
Public rights of way can be created, diverted, or extinguished through a legal process. These changes are recorded on the Definitive Map and Statement via a Legal Event Order.
You can apply for changes using a Definitive Map Modification Order (DMMO). This allows for:
- adding unrecorded rights of way
- changing the status of a path, such as from a footpath to a bridleway
You can apply for changes to be made to the Definitive Map through a Definitive Map Modification Order (DMMO). These are used to add unrecorded rights of way to the Definitive Map or add/change additional rights to a path, such as changing it from a footpath to a bridleway.
