5.52 Rights of owners or lessees of land affected by public access easements

(a) a fence or gate that does not unduly hinder public entry to the land, or
(b) any other kind of structure prescribed by the regulations.
(3) Division 9.3 applies in respect of structures erected on land that is subject to an easement for public access in the same way as it applies in respect of structures erected on Crown land.
(4) An owner or lessee who suffers damage caused by a person using an easement for public access contrary to this Act or the regulations may recover damages from the person.
