Open the path. Who is this petition being sent too, Mayor Khan? Who owns the land and is blocking it's development, we need to know so we can shame them.

It will make a big difference so people can enjoy this little corner of East London. I'm a runner and member of a run club based near the Greenway / Olympic Park and are always exploring new routes and I'm sure everyone will enjoy it.

Perhaps the landowners might show a generosity not shown by others and increase people's appreciation of the Lea through this small but significant gesture?

Every landowner should be encouraged to promote pollution-free modes of transport. In this case walking and cycling.

It’s such a lovely walk along the Lea river and opening the next stretch of path would benefit so many walkers and cyclists.

Please re-open this footpath - everyone's well-being suffers when we can't roam and walk around our landscapes.

No public footpath should be closed off by greedy landowners. So, Mr Landowner, do your public duty and open it up now.

Good it’s worthwhile and it makes it easy to get from end to the other and make the area more greener well done

It’s a no-brainer. Councils should always have the right to insist on public rights of way along waterfronts.

Great idea and it wouldn't cost the owners anything

As a Luton native now based in E London I wish to one day walk the entire path from 5 springs until it meets the Thames.
