Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order authorises the use for carriage of specified rail vehicles forming the fleet of Class 360/2 Heathrow Express electric multiple-units even though they do not conform with one requirement of the Rail Vehicle Accessibility Regulations 1998 (S.I. 1998/2456, amended by S.I. 2000/3215) because the carpets in the vestibule do not contrast sufficiently with the carpets in the adjacent passenger saloon.

The Order imposes a condition and sets a time limit on the authorisation.

A regulatory impact assessment has not been prepared in respect of this Order.
