two.2.4) Description of the procurement

Public Rights of Way (PRoW) are a valuable resource. The network provides links to services and also into the wider countryside. The rural nature of the borough provides tourism opportunities and attracts visitors to the area. Those who exercise and enjoy time in green spaces have increased wellbeing and this free source of exercise can bring wider health benefits. The Council has a statutory duty to maintain PRoW for year round use and the Public Rights of Way Improvements and Maintenance Contract is a key mechanism in the delivery of this obligation. The Council manages just over 4,000km of PRoW in Telford and Wrekin, which include footpaths, bridleways, restricted byways and byways open to all traffic.
