Name: Elm Tree Farm Number 1OS Grid Ref: SP 56996 19516Railway Ref.:Type:Function:OXD 21m 21chPublic FootpathPublic footpath (recreational use).Apparent historic use as means of access between two parcels of agricultural land in common ownership.Usage: Very limited pedestrian use - footpath approaches difficult to negotiate. No apparent use of private rights - no means of vehicular /animal access due to unbridged ditch adjacent to crossing.Proposal:Alternativesconsidered andreasons for dismissal:Close crossing and divert right of way via new bridge provided in lieu of Langford Lane crossing.1. Close crossing and provide footbridge at same location – cannot be justified due to proposal for alternative nearby bridge2. Retain crossing and provide formal crossing surface – undesirable due to increased safety risk associated with increased speedand frequency of rail traffic.Key considerations in determining proposal:3. Close crossing without provision of alternative route – impact on public footpath network unacceptable.Railway engineeringand operations:Land and property:Planning:Ecology:Retention of crossing undesirable from safety point of view. Access difficulties for bridge construction.Land either side of crossing in common ownership. NB: same ownership as at Elm Tree Farm No. 2. Footbridge might requiresmall areas of third party land either side of railway. Diversion of footpath would require acquisition of rights on both sides ofrailway but would result in closure of section of public footpath on northwest side of railway.Potential visual impact of bridge option.Badgers known to be in vicinity of crossing. Solution to take account of impact.ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT CHILTERN RAILWAYSA5
