Long Causeway Code of Respect
This code was agreed at the second Stanage Byways Forum held in October 2005.
Agreed Solutions: Code of Respect
Agreement 1
Speed limit – travel at a quiet and careful speed, taking account of conditions and other users. This should not exceed the voluntary maximum of 20mph for trail bikes and 5mph for 4x4 vehicles. Mountain bikers and horse riders should ride at a safe and controlled pace.
Agreement 2
Group size: maximum of six riders for trail bikes and four vehicles for 4x4s.
Agreement 3
Make sure you and your vehicle are fully road legal. This route is subject to the same laws as surfaced roads. Mountain bikers should make sure your bicycle is roadworthy.
Agreement 4
Keep to the defined track and where it is wide, keep to already well-used parts of the track to prevent damage to the whole width.
Agreement 5
Understand that others have legitimate access to this route.
Agreement 6
Respect other users. Give way to walkers and cyclists and stop your engine for horses. Mountain bikers should warn walkers and horse riders of your approach and give way to them. Horse riders should warn walkers of your approach and pass carefully. Walkers should give way to horse riders.
Agreement 7
Limit your use when the surface is vulnerable during and after wet weather, particularly if your vehicle is too heavy for the conditions. Do not travel on green roads when they risk being damaged beyond a point of natural recovery when the weather improves.
(This applies to all users– not just 4x4s and trail bikers and should be left to individuals to decide, as independent assessment and temporary signing was felt to be unworkable.)
Agreement 8
Winches should not be used but if it is unavoidable, your priority should be to avoid damage to trees, walls or the land surface while recovering your vehicle.
Agreement 9
Spread the message about responsible use.
Agreement 10
Avoid using this route if you can find a less sensitive alternative.
Agreement 11
Abide by the Code of Respect and watch out for any other temporary voluntary restraint signs.
Agreement 12
Everybody should respect wildlife and the countryside. Stanage is designated at the highest level for its rare birds and habitats, please take special care or consider going elsewhere during the bird breeding season (1 March – end July). Always respect the countryside and those who live, work and play in it.
Agreement 13
Seek to persuade the Highway Authorities to work with PDNPA, local councils and user groups to strategically manage all green lanes in the Peak District to achieve a hierarchy of routes, grading them red, amber or green, with different guidelines for each category, as in the Lake District National Park. Criteria for grading should include how busy the routes are, potential for conflict with other users and liability to suffer in wet conditions.
Agreed Solutions: Physical Works
Agreement 14
Erect an appropriate style of fence to replace the existing one from Redmires towards Stanedge Pole, closer to the route but allowing width for passing and for safe walking on the roadside. Gates should be provided at either end to allow access on foot to open country. A site meeting between the user groups, PDNPA and English Nature has been arranged by Sheffield City Council to seek to agree an exact line for the proposed fence.
Agreement 15
The surface should be improved and maintained to an appropriate standard for all users. The route should be approached section by section, prioritising the most damaged areas with different sections being restored and maintained to different standards, as appropriate. A variety of people need access but not all will necessarily be able to have access to the whole route. As part of this, segregation of different users at certain pinch points should be investigated further after a survey of the route. However, this should not result in a number of disparate routes along the whole length. Any improvements made must respect archaeological and natural features using appropriate, environmentally sympathetic material and be suitable for all users. Voluntary help from user groups is to be welcomed but work must be done to an appropriate specification, with appropriate supervision. The width as per the definitive statements, held by the highway authorities should be maintained. Bill and Matthew (PDNPA) offered to take responsibility for co-ordinating all consultation regarding repairs and maintenance, consulting the necessary bodies, such as English Nature and PDNPA archaeologists and gaining approval from the Stanage Byways Working Group.
Agreement 16
Support the Auto Cycle Union (ACU) in seeking to find a formal moto-cross/off-roading venue at a suitable site in the surrounding area and advise such users to go there as an alternative to illegal use of the Long Causeway by non road legal vehicles.
Agreement 17
Make the Causeway a voluntary one way route – travelling south-west from Redmires to Dennis Knoll and monitor its effectiveness and its effect on use of the Houndkirk Road.
Agreed Solutions: Making It Happen
Agreement 18
Traffic recording – to monitor type and level of use.
Agreement 19
Signage, education, wide publicity of code of respect. Educate people that it is a special place, bird nesting times, archaeology etc perhaps including “Education Days”. Signage of the Long Causeway and its use should be clear at ALL access points. Information (perhaps stone mounted) should be provided at all car parks, showing all access routes and who can use which – the Causeway, bridleways, footpaths so that users can use or avoid routes accordingly.
Agreement 20
Campaign/Education Days. These should raise awareness about the Code of Respect, weather and ground conditions, and the special wildlife and archaeological qualities of the area. They should also target/spot check illegal users. They could be held on the route (PDNPA led) and in gathering places, for example petrol stations, cafes (Police/ACU led).

just keep an eye on the forum and somone will organise a group, thats what i did, went with mr noisy and 11 others! had an epic day (thanks again sam
) im not to clued up on lanes as of yet myself so im hoping to tag on with some of the more experienced laners next time theres a run, is your landy standard or modded? just a basic lift would be an advantage but saying that there was a classic rangie that went absolutly everywhere! whereas i got stuck due to a very steep hill and deep snow! lol
