5.3.10.1

Permissive Paths are Paths where access by the public is by the permission of the landowner. Access is regulated by an agreement between the landowner and the LHA. Such Paths cannot be Highways and agreement may be withdrawn at any time, after which the land is purely private again and any public use is a trespass.

5.3.10.2

Permissive Paths should be included in the NSG because they are defined as a Street at that point in time. They can form part of a long-distance route such as an NCR or named long distance footpath, so this ensures that the route can be shown in its entirety.

5.3.10.3

To ensure the rights of the landowner are protected, apply the following rules, if they are included:

Use Street STATE = 2 – Open (type 11 Street Record). See, Section 9.2
Enter the usage permitted by the agreement in the Highway dedication code.
Use STREET_STATUS = 3 – Neither 1, 2, 4 nor 5 (type 61 Interest Record). See, Section 14.3
