Intention to make a Traffic Regulation Order

Before we make an Order we have to tell people what we intend to do and why. These Notices of Intention are published in the local press and on this website at least 7 days before the Order is made.

Various Footpaths and Bridleways in Grizedale Forest during 2026 Grizedale Stages Rally, Colton, Coniston, Hawkshead and Satterthwaite Parishes

Date of change: 5 November 2026

We intend to make an Order to temporarily close rights of way within Grizedale Forest on Saturday 5 December 2026 (for 24 hours) because of danger to the public from fast-moving vehicles during the Grizedale Stages motor rally.

Although the Order duration is for 6 months, it will only be in effect on the single day stated above. At all other times the paths will be available as usual.
