Paragraph 64 Apparatus in stopped up streetsI1

England and Wales

(1)

Where any street is stopped up under article 11 (temporary closure of and permitting vehicular use on public rights of way), where Anglian Water has apparatus in the street or accessed by virtue of that street, it has the same powers and rights in respect of that apparatus as it enjoyed immediately before the stopping up or temporary closure and the undertaker must grant to Anglian Water legal easements reasonably satisfactory to Anglian Water in respect of such apparatus and access to it, but nothing in this paragraph affects any right of the undertaker or of Anglian Water to require the removal of that apparatus under paragraph 67 or the power of the undertaker to carry out works under paragraph 69.

(2)

Regardless of the temporary closure or diversion of any highway under the powers conferred by article 11, Anglian Water is at liberty at all times to take all necessary access across any such temporarily closed highway and to execute and do all such works and things in, upon or under any such highway as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to enable it to maintain any apparatus which at the time of the temporary closure or diversion was in that highway.
