This public footpath - linking Yarborough Road and Churchill Avenue - has now been closed off for the best part of a week - at least.
However, close inspection this morning suggests it has been tidied up. There's nothing to say by whom - or, indeed, who was given the authority to close it off. Just signs and small barriers at both ends.
Isn't it usual to pin public notices up when rights of way are being closed off to the public or affected in any way?
North Lincolnshire Council is the authority which oversees public rights of way. It North Lincs is responsible for the apparent tidy-up, congratulations and thanks; if it's not North Lincs, maybe their staff should be taking a look to see when the path will reopen.
The walkway is little-used and we don't think many people can have been inconvenienced by the (hopefully very temporary) closure.
Don't know frequently the footpath is used,but there are walking groups and individuals who regularly trek the footpaths between Brigg and Wrawby.
