Green Laning

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Green laning is the driving of the many unsurfaced tracks and roads throughout the countryside in the UK that have vehicular rights. Some of these, date back thousands of years connecting farms, villages and market towns, but during the early 20th century most roads were covered with hard surfaces. Some of them were not and still have Vehicular Rights of Way today. These tracks, roads are usually known as Byway open to all traffic (BOAT), Road used as public path (RUPP). and Unclassified country roads (UCR).

Not all Rupps have vehicular rights of way so you must be sure that they do before you drive them, also you may come across Byways that have Traffic Regulation Orders which restricts vehicles from driving them.
