Wayfarer North Wales CLOSED

I was told by Wrexham that they would be putting a TRO on it. It did have a sign oon the bottom end. I was also tole the last time there was a TRO on it the signs were "going missing" all the time.
 
I was at Stoneleigh a few weeks ago, spoke to the GLASS rep for the area who said that both ends were open but the middle closed. kinda makes it pointless to bother going.
...If this lane is lost, it would be a great pity, I was up there with a couple of mates over xmas 2008-2009 freezin me rocks off in an old 110. They had series 3 and P38 so no frostbite for them.
The sad truth is that driving the lane in the direction of Corwen, at the top where the book is kept there were clear signs of damage where idiots had been churnin up the peat on the right. We actually saw them from a distance on a trip earlier in the year.
There is good and bad in all groups, however given the amount of opposition we face I would have thought a responsible attitude will at least win us more time.
Was at Peterborough weekend just gone, great show. picked up some less aggressive tyres, did have security MT's but was thinking that an AT is good enough for local green lanes and less damaging, will keep me MT's for pay and play tho!!
Last thought, my Dad's 80 now, used to be a keen mountaineer in Wales. He can't walk too far now so I use the Landie to take him up into the mountains. If these lanes are lost he will no longer be able to visit the places he loves.....
We all have choices, but it should be common sense. If you want to suck mud and take it to the max, that's you're choice, no worries; pay £15.00 or so quid and pay and play. If you wanna see the countryside from a diff perspective do the greenlanes.
If you want both go to Bala last Sunday in month.

Right, the GLASS Rep is not quite right. It is not closed in the middle. If you look at it on a map it is "Y" shaped. The "V" of the "Y" is ok, it is on the bottom of the "Y" that has been damaged. When I get a good internet connection I will post up a grid ref.
 
Wrexham County Borough Council publish the current TROs on rights of way, and the wayfarer is not on it. So if there's a TRO, its not publicised. I suspect they put on one at the back end of 2009 (after the heavy rain which washed away the railway sleepers) but it was for 6 months and it lapsed.
 
Could be Paul.

I have some good news about the reapir today, but can not post the info yet. I will as soon as it is comfirmed.

But I am sure someone on here said they had a 360 digger to help? Drop me a pm if you did.
