Path Closure – Environment Protection Act 1990
Our riverside path has been closed by York City Council while the Health & Safety Executive and Department of the Environment investigate the nature of a herbicide sprayed on it by a member of the public without licence or permission. Such incidents have been know to cause severe illness and in some cases death to pets. As this is a popular dog walking route we have had to take this unfortunate event seriously resulting in the temporary closure of our site.
We will open our path just as soon as these statutory authorities give us the all clear to do so, and apologise for the inconvenience caused to you in the meantime.
