The Public Rights of Way (Combined Orders) (England) Regulations 2008
These Regulations apply section 53A of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (c. 69) to the types of Order listed in regulation 3. Those Orders are made by local authorities for the purpose of creating, stopping up or diverting public rights of way, and by virtue of section 53A’s now applying to them may also provide for the required consequential modification of the definitive maps and statements which record such rights of way. Before the coming into force of these Regulations, the required modifications to the definitive maps and statements could only be effected by means of a separate modification Order.
