Footpaths
 Public Rights of Way and other permitted access routes provide an important function in the public enjoyment of the Broads. A large proportion of the public footpaths (Public Rights of Way and permissive routes) in Broadland run along the crest of the floodbanks, giving views of the river. In order to undertake flood defence improvement works, access along the floodbank is formally closed under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 for Health and Safety reasons. However, BESL recognises the importance of public rights of way for informal recreation by both residents and visitors and look to provide alternative routes (footpath diversions) where at all possible by landowner agreement.
A list of current closures is shown below and in the Documents for Download. Maps, where available, are also provided in the Documents for Download.
