[stevent]

On the National TRF forum - thread here: http://www.trf.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=19353
I'll be presenting on our petition success, where we successfully got Surrey County Council to adopt a Code of Practice for rights of way matters like TROs (Traffic Regulation Orders).

==========================================

ARE YOU READY FOR ROUND 2 OF THE DEREGULATION BILL? OUR TRF TECHNICAL WORKSHOP CAN HELP.

We are through round one of the Deregulation Bill. However, the fight is not won. With the introduction of the Motoring Stakeholder Working Group (MSWG), the TRF directors are proposing a technical conference on Saturday 4th July, The Strand, London where all TRF members are invited.

The day will include workshops covering:

MSWG,
Right to know legislation,
Dorset Map Scales,
Surrey TRO Process,
TTROS

The afternoon will include an optional ride out to as well as dinner.

For those that wish to stay, London TRF groups Herts, Essex, Surrey, Kent & Loddon Vale) will be opening their doors and accommodating those that require it.

A trail ride will also be taking place on Sunday 5th.

This event is at the planning stage and will go ahead if enough members register their interest in coming. If you think it is a useful idea and would like to attend please register by clicking this link by the 31st May: https://eventbrite.co.uk/event/16759262405/

There will be no cost for members wishing to attend. Travel to and from the event is not included, though you may wish to apply for this to be reimbursed by your local TRF group funds.

We hope to see you for a productive and enjoyable weekend in July
