Footpaths Clause Samples
The Footpaths clause defines the rights and responsibilities regarding the use, maintenance, or construction of footpaths within a specified property or development. Typically, it outlines who is permitted to use the footpaths, who is responsible for their upkeep, and any restrictions or obligations related to their accessibility or modification. For example, it may require the property owner to keep footpaths clear and in good repair, or it may grant public access under certain conditions. The core function of this clause is to ensure safe, accessible pedestrian routes and to clarify maintenance duties, thereby preventing disputes over access or liability.

Ltd. and all other Public Bodies, Companies and persons who may be affected, the position and depth of their respective ducts, cables, mains, pipes, or other appurtenances. He shall thereupon search for and locate such services. The Contractor shall at his own expense arrange to have effectually propped, protected, underpinned, altered, diverted, restored and made as may be necessary, all water courses, pipes, cables or ducts, poles or wires or their appurtenances disturbed or damaged during the progress of the Works, or in consequence thereof. Except that such services as require to be removed or altered by virtue of the layout of the permanent work, and not the manner in which the work is carried out, shall be so removed or altered at the direction and at the expense of the Employer. The Contractor shall be liable for the cost of repairs to any services damaged as a result of carrying out the Works and execution of these Works.
