From the report to the Secretary of State - Close Crossing to all users and extinguish PR over the
crossing, together with a section of FP EX/158/27 (Chapel Croft) to the north-west of the railway. FP 27 to be diverted south on a newly created 2m wide unsurfaced footpath. Users would then be diverted northeast along a newly created 2m wide unsurfaced footpath before joining Little
Bromley Road to cross the railway at the associated road bridge. Users
would continue east along Little Bromley Road before heading south along a new 2m wide unsurfaced cross-field footpath which would provide access to the residual lengths of FPs EX/158/27 and EX/158/42.
Users approaching the crossing from FP EX/158/42 (from Frating RD) would be diverted west
along FP EX/158/49 and then along the footway of Station Road to the full barrier CCTV crossing. Having crossed the railway, users would then continue along the footway to the centre of Ardleigh.

This will need a survye as some FPs in this area are missing.
