Hi all, just looking for some information. My parents have right of way on a private road that leads up to their house (it's a long road, about 600m). The land around it has been sold & there is a large development planned on it which includes a lower section of this road. There will be a new road put in halfway up the original road which will eventually lead to the public road. However, what say do my parents have with the lower section of the road now becoming redundant? Do they have any position to object to this as they always had a right of way on the entire road? Or is it that because they are given new access then they have no grounds to dispute losing the rights to the lower part of the road?
The new access road takes them quite a bit out of the way.
