摘要

散步是英国最受欢迎的户外消遣。它有利于健康，特别是在农村地区，有利于经济。英国的步行者每年花费60亿英镑，创造20万个全职工作岗位。通行权受到良好的法律保护。然而，尽管如此，在英格兰，35%的道路很难或无法使用，在威尔士，大约一半的道路令人不满意，大约三分之一的道路无法使用。公路管理部门有责任保护和维护公众使用人行道和其他公路的权利，而新的立法——《2000年农村和道路权利法案》——正在为这些管理部门引入新的职责和权力。

Walking—social, health and economic benefits, and the law

Walking is Britain's most popular outdoor pastime. It is good for health and, particularly in rural areas, good for the economy. Walkers in England spend £6 billion every year, generating in the region of 200 000 full-time jobs. Rights of way are afforded excellent legal protection. However, despite this, in England 35% of paths are difficult or impossible to use, and in Wales around half of all paths are unsatisfactory, and around a third are unusable. Highway authorities have the duty to protect and assert the public's rights to use footpaths and other highways, and new legislation—the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000—is introducing new duties and powers for these authorities.

The journal proudly enjoys an international readership and actively encourages international Panel members and authors. The journal covers the effect of civil engineering on local community such as technical issues, political interface and community participation, the sustainability agenda, cultural context, and the key dimensions of procurement, management and finance. This also includes public services, utilities, and transport. Research needs to be transferable and of interest to a wide international audience. Please ensure that municipal aspects are considered in all submissions. We are happy to consider research papers/reviews/briefing articles.
