Rights of Way
Hampshire Countryside Service manages about 3,000 miles of public footpaths, bridleways and unsurfaced roads.
These are maintained locally by teams who work with landowners to keep vegetation under control and ensure that the paths are clear.
The legal record of Rights of Way is kept under constant review by the map team in Winchester.
