Stannage Edge / Long Causeway closed to vehicular traffic

[Kingy]

Just a heads up to anyone who rides a trail bike. Long Causeway / Stannage Edge is now closed to vehicular traffic. Peak Park really are flexing their muscles. They don't want motorised vehicles using the lanes in the Peaks so they are systematically closing the main ones with temp or (like this) permanent TRO's.

The National Park Authorities’ Traffic Orders (Procedure) (England) Regulations 2007 – Notice of Making a Traffic Regulation Order – Long Causeway

I am writing to give notice that a traffic regulation order (TRO) has been made under section 22BB(2)(a) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act (RTRA) 1984 to prohibit use by mechanically propelled vehicles at any time along the route known as Long Causeway.

The order will come into force on 18 September 2014. A copy of the notice of making of the order is attached to this letter for information together with the Regulation 14 decision notice giving the reasons for not acceding to objections made.

The notice, order, decision notice and a map showing the extent of the restriction can be found at http://www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/tros.

Please note that there are no rights of appeal to the making of the TRO, although an application may be made to the High Court within 6 weeks of the date of the order if it is considered that the order has not been validly made.

Thank you for taking the time to comment.

Yours faithfully
