If the local highway authority has added new way markers along a different route, that suggests to me that they have amended the PRoW but perhaps have not (yet) amended the definitive statement/map. In which case, the new way marked route should be mapped.

On the subject of way marked routes, I would suggest adding something

It could be a permissive path or go across access land./

I have been fooled by this sort of thing in the past.
