91制片厂County Council is inviting residents to help shape the county鈥檚 updated Rights of Way Improvement Plan (ROWIP).

The plan, currently under review, sets out how the county鈥檚 network of public rights of way - footpaths, bridleways, and byways - will meet the needs of the public now and in the future. 

Feedback from residents will play a vital role in setting priorities and actions for the new ROWIP.

The Public Rights of Way Team said: 鈥淲e鈥檝e had a great response but it鈥檚 not too late to share your views. We want to hear your thoughts about Worcestershire鈥檚 Public Rights of Way - especially from younger people who love getting outdoors. This will to help shape our Rights of Way Improvement plan for the next 10 years for everyone.鈥

Every council in England is responsible for public rights of way must have a Rights of Way Improvement Plan.

This key strategy outlines how these routes meet the needs of the public, now and into the future. Worcestershire鈥檚 current ROWIP is due for renewal, and public feedback will play a vital role in setting priorities and actions for the new plan.

A public right of way (PROW) is a route across land that the public can legally use at any time.

While all PROWs are open to walkers, some are also open to horse riders, cyclists, or motorists, depending on the route type.

The Council is encouraging residents, landowners, interest groups, parish councils, and all users of public rights of way to complete a short survey and share their thoughts.

The closing date for responses is this Sunday 26 October, 2025.

To have your say, please complete the survey on our website.
