1. Having seen some public rights of way (PROW) data online in May 2025, I contacted you and you replied: "The full dataset is still yet to be released with work ongoing. We would hope to have this fully completed soon but cannot make any guarantees due to internal processes." I wonder whether this has now been done?
2. If not then, under the Freedom of Information Act, I would like you to supply me with information about the PROWs of Wokingham. If possible, I would like the following details about each PROW:
parish, e.g., FINC
name, e.g., 17A
type, i.e., Footpath, Bridleway, Restricted Byway or BOAT
coordinates, i.e., location of points along the route of the PROW.
For the coordinates, I would prefer latitudes-longitudes but can also handle eastings-northings.
I would like this information to be provided to me as an electronic copy, preferably as an ESRI shapefile or MapInfo files. Please can you bundle the files up into a zip file. If you provide the information in an ESRI shapefile or MapInfo files, I will be able to get the latitudes-longitudes from these files.
I have seen your online map:

Back in 2014 following a FOI request (Axlr8 3830), you sent me files that had the details of your PROWs. And then in January 2021 (WBCIR:13923), February 2022 (WBCIR:15263), February 2023 (WBCIR:16448) and May 2024 (WBCIR:17848), you sent me updates. Thank you again for providing these.
As it was over a year ago that I last received data from you, today I'm seeking an update.
2. I would like you to release the files to me with an Open licence. In May 2024, you released your data to me under the terms of the OGL v3.0. If you are happy to do this again, please can you e-mail me to say that you are releasing the files to me under the terms of the OGL v3.0.
