Rights of way open data

Our Rights of Way network data is available to anyone who has software that can interact with a Web Feature Service (WFS). Once connected to the WFS, the data can be saved into any format that the software supports.

The data could be used by:

  • the public to plan routes on the footpaths, bridleways and byways. As more local authority rights of way data becomes available, routes can be planned across county boundaries.
  • organisations such as the Wildlife Trust, Natural England or the Ramblers Association
  • other local authorities
