Draft Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2026-36

Monitoring

Monitoring the delivery of the ROWIP helps us to understand what is working well and helps to demonstrate the difference the investment in the PROW and countryside access network is making in terms of achieving our vision and objectives. Likewise, monitoring also helps to show the impact of any lack of investment of resources and where we can do things better.

We aim to monitor the progress of this ROWIP and the subsequent implementation plans through the following means, where resources permit:

• Annual PROW team reports to the Highways and Transport Committee;
• Quarterly reports to the Cheshire East Countryside Access Forum;
• Surveys such as the National Highways and Transport Network Satisfaction Surveys;
• 'Ease of use' surveys undertaken by volunteers;
• Research projects, for example Motability University of Westminster project; and,
• The Council’s Digital Influence Panel.
