Article 2 Maintenance of footbridge
For the purpose of carrying out any maintenance of the footbridge the Company may stop up or interrupt the use of the path.
No stopping up or interruption under sub-paragraph (a) above shall be for any period exceeding 3 months, and except in case of emergency no such stopping up or interruption shall tae place less than 3 months after the conclusion of any previous such stopping up or interruption.
For the more convenient maintenance of the footbridge, in section 5 of the North-eastern Railway Company’s (Lanchester Valley Branch) Act 1857 (which prescribes, among other things, the height and width of the footbridge) the following amendments shall be made:—
for the words “of not less than a clear width of sixteen feet throughout” there shall be substituted the words “of such width as is required to accommodate a path not less than 1.8 metres wide”; and
for the words “the roadway whereof shall not exceed sixteen feet four inches in height above the present surface of the rails of the railway” there shall be substituted the words “the height whereof (measured from the upper surface of the rails of the railway to the lowest part of the underside of the bridge) shall be not less than 4.44 metres”.
