Without limitation on the scope of the generality of any other protection afforded to Cadent elsewhere in the Order, where any street is stopped up under article 13 (permanent stopping up and restriction of use of streets and private means of access), if Cadent has any apparatus in the street or accessed via that street Cadent will be entitled to the same rights in respect of such apparatus as it enjoyed immediately before the stopping up and the undertaker will grant to Cadent, or will procure the granting to Cadent of, legal easements reasonably satisfactory to Cadent in respect of such apparatus and access to it prior to the stopping up of any such street or highway but nothing in this paragraph affects any right of the undertaker or of Cadent to require the removal of that apparatus under paragraph 24 of this Part of this Schedule.

(2)

Notwithstanding the temporary stopping up or diversion of any highway under the powers of article 12 (temporary stopping up and restriction of use of streets), Cadent will be at liberty at all times to take all necessary access across any such stopped up highway and/or to execute and do all such works and things in, upon or under any such highway as it would have been entitled to do immediately before such temporary stopping up or diversion in respect of any apparatus which at the time of the stopping up or diversion was in that highway

(3)

The provisions of this Part of this Schedule apply and take precedence over article 32(2) to (7) (apparatus and rights of statutory undertakers) which shall not apply to Cadent.
