If the route is used by equestrians you must ensure suitable provisions are made to ensure the safety of people riding or leading horses past the works. Consideration should be given to suspending all operations when horses are passing the works.
Where it is necessary to close a bridleway a Temporary Traffic Regulation Order or Temporary Traffic Notice will be required.
Your supervisor, manager or other competent person will need to discuss the situation with the highway authority before work starts.
