King Alfred’s Way Solstice restrictions past Stonehenge?

Planning on riding the KAW for a second time this week, once again passing Stonehenge around the solstice.

Last time I avoided the stones as I was passing evening of 20th, this week likely to be morning of 22nd, the day after the actual solstice.

I’ve found a list of byway closures in force all week for ‘vehicles’. I’m sure the optional KAW route past the stones will be on one of these.

Question: Can we push our ‘vehicles’ past or is a jobsworth in a high viz jacket going to gleefully spoil our ride?

Thanks for any legal input..

Closures:

Cream 27 x 1 1/4 tyres. Rarer than rocking horse poop!

Been scouring the World (or rather Google) for cream 27 x 1 1/4 tyres for a path racer rebuild of an old Dawes city bike.

I've found a couple of sources of white tyres in the US but I fear they'll soon take on the undesirable appearance of chalky french dog poop.

Anyone know of a current source of cream please? Some old threads and dead links suggest they used to exist.

I'm aware of coloured side wall tyres but they aren't what I'm after.

Second choice is solid black, easier to source but wondered what was a favourite, Pashley Speed 5 style...

Many thanks.
