Appeal against a right of way decision

Skip contents

After you appeal

The Planning Inspectorate will check your appeal to make sure it’s valid. They’ll tell you what happens next and how long your appeal may take.

You’ll normally get a decision within 30 weeks (or 21 weeks for a direction request).

If you’re successful

For appeals, the Planning Inspectorate will tell the council to make the order. There’s no time limit for your local council to do this.

For direction requests, the Planning Inspectorate will give the local council a time limit to make a decision on your original application.
