|
|
Hi,
Isuzu trooper owner looking to dabble a little in off-roading.
Plenty of byways where I live which would be ideal.
I understand you have to apply to local council(?) for permit to drive on these tracks (some tracks are signed permit only).
Any idea if this is the case and how much I should expect to pay?
Thanks |

Norfolk/suffolk borders.
I neighbour rides his pony+trap on the byways and he pays about £60 per year to do this.
Don;t know if he is being ripped off or it this the law? |

Thanks for your help.
I'll give the council a call and see what they say - i see enough off roads (bikes/4X4) as well as horse riders on the tracks - bizarre if only the horse riders have to pay
Good weekend. |

If you browse down through this link to where it says Eye (its alphabetical)
Its basicly confirms it that some areas need permits.
