Public footpath could be cut
Fri, 18 Aug 2023
An Arbory and Rushen Commissioner says cutting a public footpath breaks an ‘ancient link’ that people have used for decades.
Kirrie Jenkins made the statement at a public meeting last night about the Department of Infrastructure’s plan to prevent residents from using a right of way at Ballacannel.
The public were told the path they had been using was not identified on a ‘definitive’ map, but the government representative said if the situation wasn’t resolved it could go to a public enquiry.
