The amenity of the area in this context, is considered to be a combination of the benefits derived from open air recreation, tranquillity, and the landscape.

The Yorkshire Dales NPA policy document says:
​
In all cases where a TRO is being proposed the reason is to preserve both the “amenity” and the “natural beauty” of the National Park under S1(1)(f) and S22(2) of the RTRA:
(s1(1)(f) RTRA84) enables a TRO to be made when it is expedient for preserving or improving the amenities of the area through which the road runs, and
(s22(2) RTRA84) enables a TRO to be made for the purpose of conserving or enhancing the natural beauty of the area, or of affording better opportunities for the public to enjoy the amenities of the area, or recreation or the study of nature in the area.
