Reporting problems with public rights of way

Information about what to do if you find a problem on a public right of way

We work hard to keep public rights of way in the area safe and easy to use.

As well as having hundreds of kilometres of path surfaces to maintain there are about 400 stiles, over 200 gates, about 160 bridges or culverts, 250 flights of steps and around 850 signposts to look after.

You should find all of these in reasonable condition but if you do come across any problems please let us know. When you contact us we'll need some details, such as your name and address, telephone number, or e-mail.

These won't be passed on to anyone else, it's just really helpful if we are able to get in touch with you again, whether that's to check the details, to let you know what's happening or just to tell you that the problem has been attended to.

​If you discover any problems with Public Rights of Way in Redcar and Cleveland, please call 01642 774774 or report the issue online using the button at the top of this page.
