To consider a Joint Report of the Corporate Director for Place Management and Regeneration and the Council Solicitor

The report details a proposal for the dedication of a bridleway over a section of land it owns between the A34 and Three Acres Lane and on Footpath 97(a) Cheadle and Gatley, as shown marked F – G on the plan at Appendix 1. If it dedicates the bridleway, the Council will have maintenance responsibility to bridleway standard for the route.

The Area Committee is recommended to resolve to:-

(2) Authorise the making of a bridleway creation order in respect of the section of the route between points A – F, as shown on the plan at Appendix 1.
