Dataset containing the public rights of way of Cheshire West and Chester

Information about the public rights of way of Cheshire West and Chester appear on the following web pages: footpaths, bridleways, restricted byways and byways open to all traffic. Although these web pages do not provide an explicit way of downloading the public rights of way data for Cheshire West and Chester, I have found the following URLs provide ESRI shape files: footpaths, bridleways, restricted byways and byways open to all traffic. I last used these URLs to obtain ESRI shape files on 2nd June 2023. The Council provides information about public rights of way on its online map. It may be that their map uses more up-to-date information.

An authority's Definitive Map is the authoritative source of their rights of way. The details of the public rights of way network contained in an authority's data are for information only, and are an interpretation of the Definitive Map, not the Definitive Map itself, and should not be relied on for determining the position or alignment of any public right of way. For legal purposes, an authority's data does not replace their Definitive Map. And changes may have been made to the Definitive Map that are not included in their data. The authority's data contains Ordnance Survey data © Crown copyright and database right 2024. Attempting to view this data with more detail than 1:10000 may produce an inaccurate rendering of the route of a public right of way.

Those four web pages say that the council make their data available under Open Government Licence v3.0. So it's possible for you to use this data provided you give the attribution that the data has been provided by the council of Cheshire West and Chester.

This web site also provides data about the rights of way of Cheshire West and Chester in KML format, in GPX format, in CSV format and in GeoJSON format.
