Article 14 Construction of bridges

Any bridge to be constructed under this Order for carrying a highway over or under a railway must be constructed in accordance with the plans and specification approved by the highway authority, but such approval must not be unreasonably withheld.

If within 28 days of receiving an application for approval under paragraph (1) a highway authority fails to notify Network Rail of its decision or refuses approval without giving any grounds for its refusal that highway authority is deemed to have granted approval.
