As far as I can see, the priority ‘Improvement and maintenance of Public Rights of Way’ does not appear in the Action Plan Appendix O.

I note that Equestrians have not been mentioned.
Horse Riders and Horse Drawn Carriage Drivers are classified as Vulnerable Road users by the government so should be included.
According to the DEFRA Equine Passport Agency there are about 1,757 horses kept within the same Postcodes as Barkway and Nuthampstead. It is estimated that each horse contributes £5,000 to the local economy making a contribution of about £8,785,000.
It is important that Horse Riders and Horse Drawn Carriage Drivers can safely exercise their horses on the local roads and that they also have access to circular off-road Bridleways and Restricted Byways.

I would suggest that the Rights of Way Improvement Plan (ROWIP) is referred to for other improvements to the Rights of Way network as implied within this section.

There are several suggestions that are shown in the Rights of Way Improvement Plan (ROWIP) that need to be included to improve Rights of Way for Equestrians.
This includes the Eve Way (Thieves Way) which runs from Chelmsford to Stevenage and passes through the Parish of Barkway and includes UCR1 which has a definitive Map Modification Order to record it as a Byway Open to All Traffic (BOAT).
