This map shows that only one of the six green lanes near Little Langdale cannot be used by motor vehicles.

​

​

High Tilberthwaite (U5001)/High Oxenfell (U5004)

• Routes used by convoys from the UK and abroad despite local complaints starting in 2000

• Substantial evidence of harm to natural beauty and amenity (e.g. 85% of non-motorised users surveyed want a TRO because of impact on their enjoyment of the area)

• Lakes Parish Council votes to recommend TRO for U5001; Skelwith Parish Council requests restrictions on access for motor vehicles on U5004 

• Farm work severely disrupted by recreational motor vehicles on both routes

• Calls for TROs from UNESCO World Heritage Centre/ICOMOS and National Trust (the landowner)

• Vehicles leaving route into ecologically highly sensitive bogland

• Traffic peaks of up to 50 motor vehicles a day

• Repaired by CCC (Cumbria County Council) in 2018/19 at a cost of £50,000

• Against UNESCO request LDNPA sets up management group on which motoring organisations are massively overrepresented. The remit of the group excludes discussions about closure to motor vehicles.
