road stopping

Road stopping - a Wellington submission example and Environment Court decision

Submitted by ellen.blake on Mon, 30/03/2015 - 23:55

We have become concerned at the number of legal but unformed roads that have been stopped and sold. This limits the future choices and potential uses for the land. Unformed legal road is often used by pedestrians for accessways or potentially could be used as such.
