Paragraph 4 Apparatus of National Grid in streets subject to temporary stopping upI1

Without prejudice to the generality of any other protection afforded to National Grid elsewhere in this Order, where any street is stopped up under article 10 (temporary stopping up of streets), if National Grid has any apparatus in the street or accessed via that street National Grid 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 National Grid, or will procure the granting to the National Grid of, legal easements reasonably satisfactory to National Grid in respect of such apparatus and access to it prior to the stopping up of any such street or highway.

Notwithstanding the temporary stopping up under the powers of article 10 (temporary stopping up of streets), National Grid will be at liberty at all times to take all necessary access across any such street and/or to execute and do all such works and things in, upon or under any such street as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to enable it to maintain any apparatus which at the time of the stopping up or diversion was in that street.
