Couple of comments on that. Quite a lot of PROW within the urban sprawl. These being ways that have had to be adjusted and realigned when housing development extended, but at least were maintained as a route. I assume your render is looking for the designation tag? A lot of footways I've added don't have that on them yet so wouldn't show up. How about a combined map to show the extent of this difference, if indeed that is the basis of your present version.
