Crown Estate: Abandoned Vehicles
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to remove abandoned vehicles from Crown Estate land; and whether Crown Estate land is designated as off road for the purposes of vehicles in receipt of a Statutory Off Road Notification.
- Answer
-
The Crown Estate is an independent commercial organisation, and the Government is not involved in its operations and day-to-day decision making.
Removal of abandoned vehicles is primarily the responsibility of the relevant local authority; therefore, where vehicles are abandoned on land under the Crown Estate’s control and management, they will engage with the relevant authorities to address the issue.
Crown Estate land is not automatically considered “off road” for Statutory Off Road Notification purposes.
