Pursuant to Section 31(6) Highways Act 1980
Section 31(6) of the Highways Act 1980 makes provision for a landowner to deposit a map and statement with the Highway Authority showing the ways which are recognised and acknowledged as dedicated highways.
If within six years a statutory declaration is made to the Highway Authority that no additional ways have been dedicated since the deposit of the map, this is sufficient evidence to establish that there was no intention during that period to dedicate a way. The landowner may continue to deposit similar declarations at intervals of six years or fewer, with the same effect.
The deposit of the map does not establish that the rights of way shown thereon were the only ones then in existence, nor does the subsequent deposit of statutory declarations affect any rights which existed then, but were not shown on the map.
