  • Definition of Footpath and Road Margin
    Meanings of “footpath” and “road margin” in Land Transport (Road User) Rule 2004 The RURs provide the following definitions 1.6 Interpretation: footpath means a path or way principally designed for, and used by, pedestrians; and ​ includes a footbridge road margin includes any uncultivated margin of a road adjacent to but not forming part of ​ ​ ​ either the roadway or the footpath (if any) The definition of “footpath” encompasses the road space that is principally designed for and used by pedestrians. There is nothing in any of the rules that reference footpath that limits this to paved areas of the pedestrian space. The definition of “road margin” excludes any part of the footpath. The term is only used in RUR 6.2, 11.14 and 11.15. Both 11.14 and 11.15 refer to riders of horses. 11.14 requires horse riders to “when a reasonably adequate road margin is available, keep the animal on ​ the road margin as far as practicable”, but prohibits riding “along a footpath, or on any lawn, ​ ​ garden, or other cultivation adjacent to or forming part of a road”. These words suggest that ​ road margins do not exist on all roads. It appears that the term “road margin” only refers to ​ ​ areas set aside and formed for parking or stopping off the roadway References to “footpath” and “road margin” in other legislation Both terms appear with the same definitions in related legislation: the Land Transport (Offences and Penalties) Regulations 1999 (in a schedule of penalties for breaching rules in the RUR, and the Traffic Regulations 1976 (largely revoked and Replaced by the RUR).

  • A Study of Occurrence of Potholes and Washboards on Soil-Aggregate Roads EUGENE Y
    A Study of Occurrence of Potholes and Washboards on Soil-Aggregate Roads EUGENE Y. HUANG, Associate Professor of Civil Engineering, University of Illinois This report presents the results of a study aimed at determining some of the circumstances associated with the occurrence of potholes and washboards on soil-aggregate roads. The study consisted of a statistical analysis of the qualitative data obtained from a road condition survey involving road surfaces of the coarse-graded aggregate type composed of mineral aggregate such as gravel or crushed stone and some binder material. Results of the study indicate that the occurrence of potholes and washboards was definitely associated with the volume of traffic, the type of surface material, and the drainage condition of the road surface. Although the findings are admittedly limited to the types and conditions of the roads studied, it is hoped that the data may be of value in further understanding the formation of potholes and washboards. • THE OCCURRENCE of potholes and washboards has long been a serious problem in soil-aggregate surfaces. These formations, however, have not been fully explained. Potholes on road surfaces are irregularly occurring, well-defined holes consisting of fairly deep cavities up to about 5 in. (Fig. 1). Washboards are transverse or nearly transverse waves on road surfaces, generally about 1 to 1/4 in. in amplitude andspaced about 2 or 3 ft apart (Fig. 2), regardless of the nature of material in which they occur. (Although typical formations of potholes and washboards are readily distinguishable, there are, however, numerous possibilities of transitional forms between these two typical forms.) Both potholes and washboards are conducive to surface impact and vibration, which contribute in a great measure to the rapid deterioration of the road surface as well as the vehicle itself.

  • Circular Walk from Bury Knowle Park to the C. S. LEWIS NATURE
    Circular walk from Bury Knowle Park to the C. S. LEWIS NATURE RESERVE in Risinghurst, and on up to SHOTOVER; then a restricted byway to HORSPATH, and back to Headington through fields to THE RIDINGS (under 5½ miles/8.8 km) Walking boots essential in the Horspath area after rainy periods (1) Bury Knowle Park in central Headington to Risinghurst Leave Bury Knowle Park via the main gate, turn left on to the London Road, and cross that road at the first pelican crossing (opposite St Andrew’s School). Continue a short way eastwards on the London Road, and then take the first turning on the right down Wharton Road. Take the second turning on the left into St Leonard’s Road. Take the first turning on the right into Holley Crescent, and when it curves right, turn left on to Vallis Alley, the footpath that starts between Nos. 22 and 20 Holley Crescent. (This is a remnant of the old funeral path that the people of Quarry used to take to get to St Andrew’s Church before their own parish church opened in 1849.) If the alley is crowded, it is possible to go into Margaret Road recreation ground on the right and get back out on to the path again just before the pavilion. Continue on Vallis Alley all the way to the end, then cross Quarry High Street and enter the footpath that is opposite (Chapel Alley). The former Quarry Methodist Chapel of 1860 is on your left. At the end of Chapel Alley turn left into Quarry Hollow, then take the first right into Quarry School Place, with Headington Quarry Nursery School (formerly Headington Quarry National School) on your right.

  • 9 Public Rights of Way 2 Local Highway Panels (LHP) Members Guide 2021/22
    Local Highway Panels Members’ Guide 9 Public Rights of Way 2 Local Highway Panels (LHP) Members Guide 2021/22 1. Introduction There are 6,320km of Public Rights of Way (PRoW) in Essex, which is one of the most extensive networks in the country. Although PRoW are the lowest category of highway, exactly the same legal principles apply as with all roads and footways: once a highway, always a highway; the status, width and position can only be altered by legal order. The Definitive Map of Public Rights of Way, together with a document called the Definitive Statement, lists the precise location of all PRoWs within Essex. The County Council is responsible for the maintenance and update of the Definitive Map and Definitive Statement. This is divided into Districts and Parishes, with each path being identified by a number which is unique to that Parish. Although the right of way itself is protected and accessible to all, in most cases the surrounding land and the sub-soil of the PRoW will usually be privately owned, and often working farmland. The landowner and possibly others may have private access rights, such as the right to use a tractor or other vehicle on a route. Types of Right of Way There are four types of right of way which have different access rights. Different coloured symbols are used to differentiate between the different types of highway. Footpaths Footpaths represent 84% of the total PRoW network. A footpath is a highway over which the public has a right of way on foot only.

Introduction The Cornell Local Roads Program Center provides training, technical assistance, and information to municipal officials and employees responsible for the maintenance, construction, and management of local highways and bridges in New York State. This educational service has been widely used throughout New York State by many municipalities who wish to run their highway departments more effectively and efficiently. Part of the Cornell Local Roads Program (CLRP) is a cost analysis tool developed by Civil Engineers from Cornell University. The purpose of this tool is to generate a road database for prioritizing and recommending various repairs objectively. The basis of the program is to collect road condition data and catalog a detailed list of information through software known as the Cornell Asset Management Program ­ Roads & Streets (CAMP­RS). CAMP­RS functions chiefly by “Keeping good roads good” and consistently improving the conditions of subpar roads within the constraints of a limited budget. CAMP­RS outputs a prioritized list of repairs in order to efficiently raise the condition of all roads to an acceptable level.
