Explanatory note

This Order amends the Crime Prevention (Designated Areas) Order 2003 (“the 2003 Order”) which designates certain areas within which councils (which are highway authorities) are able to make orders, under sections 118B and 119B of the Highways Act 1980, to stop up or divert certain highways for the purposes of crime prevention.

Article 2 of this Order amends the definition of “maps” in article 2 of the 2003 Order to remove map number 36. In consequence the area hatched and edged red on that map, which relates to an area within the borough of Milton Keynes, will no longer be designated under the 2003 Order.

A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as it has no impact on the costs of business.
