Improving Cornwall's Rights of Way - Baseline User Survey

Help Shape the Future of Cornwall’s Public Rights of Way

We’re inviting you to take part in a survey that will help Cornwall Council better understand how people use and experience the Public Rights of Way (PRoW) network—and what improvements you would like to see.

The results will inform a refreshed Rights of Way Improvement Plan (RoWIP), alongside a baseline condition assessment and targeted feedback from key stakeholder groups. This updated plan will guide our approach, priorities, and actions for managing Cornwall’s Public Rights of Way network over the next ten years, ensuring it meets the needs of users and delivers value. 

Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey!

Please note that if you would prefer the survey in any other format to meet your needs, please do get in touch. 

The survey has 35 questions, including those which help us understand who is responding to monitor how the results reflect different groups of users. Many of the questions are multiple choice, but there are also opportunities to provide written answers. 

There is a progress bar to indicate how far through the survey you are, and there are options to skip questions that are not relevant to you. 

NB By registering yourself on Let’s Talk Cornwall (or signing in if you are already registered) before starting this survey, you will be able to save this survey part way through and return to it later without losing data you have already submitted. You will also receive a copy of your responses for your records.
