Sewstern Lane south of Thackson's Way Farm
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2849972.
This is clearly not fixed. The track is almost completely obstructed by a metal gate with a small rocky gap to the side. It is barely passable by bike, requiring climbing over rocks, and is effectively obstructed to trikes, wheelchairs or horses.

We are sorry but we are not taking immediate action with this report because The County Council has recently attended a meeting with the landowner regarding the management of Sewstern Lane. It is evident that there are still considerable issues in the area with anti-social and unlawful use by motor vehicles. The landowner has amended the barrier at Thacksons Well Farm to enable horse riders and cycling to continue gaining access, one of the concrete blocks in the middle of the track has been removed to enable access and path users may step over the horizontal concrete posts at the junction with Bottesford Road crossroads. Unfortunately, it will not be possible to open up the lane any further as this will allow access to quads and this will lead to a rapid deterioration in the surface of Sewstern Lane. Thank you for reporting this matter.
This report is now closed to updates from the public. You can make a new report in the same location.
