Notwithstanding the temporary stopping up or diversion of any highway under the powers of article 16 (temporary stopping up of streets), an undertaker shall be at liberty at all times 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, renew or use any apparatus which at the time of the stopping up or diversion was in that highway.
