Explanatory note

This Scheme revokes the M3 Motorway (Compton-Bassett Section) Scheme 1974, made under sections 11 and 12 of the Highways Act 1959 (c. 25), authorising the provision of a special road along a route between Compton and Bassett in the County of Hampshire as part of the M3 Motorway. That route is more particularly described in the Schedule to that Scheme and shown by a heavy black line on the deposited plan to that Scheme.
