Blocked RUPP - Bourn, Cambridgeshire

There are several trees preventing passage on the RUPP between the A1198 and Bourn, approximately where the arrow is on this streetmap link:

There are about 4 which are too large to cut or move with a hand saw and means that the RUP is effectively blocked and you have to turn

Not sure what you are meaning by RUP, unles you mean RUPP (Road Used as Public Path) I've had a look on Trailwise and it doesn't list that as a BOAT (Byway Open to All Traffic) The only one it lists is the track on the East side of the A1198 which goes through Bellams Farm however this has a seasonal TRO on it so is closed to traffic from April to November. Are you sure that the lane you were on is legal to drive? The logs blocking the track may have been there for a reason.

I think it's TL3154-01 (BOAT) on trailwise. Closed by TRO from 01 Oct - 30Apr (so legal to drive at the moment). No mention of any obstruction.

You're right it is TL3154-01, don't know why it didn't show up on my first search. Do you have full access to Trailwise Jon? It's just the comment on without logging in is

Restriction type : Traffic Regulation Order (TRO). Duration : Seasonal.
Description : Seasonal against all motors, though m/c may be reviewed in 2011
Season : 01 OCT - 30 APR, Currently inactive (today 27/09/2014).


As the bolded bit shows it is currently inactive Thumbs Up

Yes, I have full access. It looks as though people have been using it over the summer months without any problem. There's no mention of any obstruction in the comments from earlier in this summer.

Yes, sorry RUPP - I've edited the original post.

It is legal to drive on and has a seasonal TRO, which starts 1st Nov. Cambridgeshire is really helpful and put a nice big sign and barrier up with the TRO dates and vehicle restrictions. Very Happy

I've driven it previously and it's been clear, the trees look like recent wind damage, you can see where they've broken off the tree, they've definitely not been placed. I walked the blocked section and there are about half a dozen fallen down over about half a mile.

Now been cleared - the byways officer at the council has just mailed me to tell me.

I just cannot drive down it for the next six months as it shut for vehicles on the 1st October Rolling with laughter

Just got to sign up to GLASS now....
