Private Roads: The Legal Framework (4th ed.)
Private Roads: The Legal Framework is the definitive guide to the law which applies to private roads. More than 10 years after it was first published, and now in its 4th edition, the book is firmly established as the definitive guide to the law of England and Wales for residents' associations and all others with an interest in this subject. It explains the law clearly and simply and deals in a practical way with potential legal problems, including:
Ownership of the road, including how to acquire ownership and management without ownership

Public and private rights of way, their scope and acquisition

Liability for accidents and insurance

Parking and other motoring issues

Planning law, including trees, conservation areas and outdoor advertising

Services and road works

Organisation and collective management, including the formation of associations and companies

The book is fully indexed, and contains detailed references to legislation, cases, and other legal sources. A unique system of cross-references allows readers to move easily between different parts of the text so as to see how different areas of the law affect a given situation.
