TRANSPORT AND WORKS, ENGLAND

Made 2nd August 1999

Coming into force 23rd August 1999

Whereas an application has been made to the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions (“the Secretary of State”), in accordance with the Transport and Works (Applications and Objections Procedure) Rules 1992f1 made under sections 6, 7 and 10 of the Transport and Works Act 1992f2 (“the Act”), for an Order under sections 3 and 5 of the Act;

And whereas the objections to that application have been withdrawn;

And whereas the Secretary of State is satisfied that the provision of an alternative right of way for each of the streets mentioned in Part II of Schedule 4 to this Order is not required;

And whereas the Secretary of State has determined to make an Order giving effect to the proposals comprised in the application with modifications which in his opinion do not make any substantial change in the proposals;

And whereas the Secretary of State is of the opinion that the primary object of this Order cannot be achieved by means of an order under the Harbours Act 1964f3;

And whereas notice of the Secretary of State’s determination was published in the London Gazette on 19th July 1999;

Now, therefore, the Secretary of State in exercise of the powers conferred on him by sections 3 and 5 of, and paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13 and 16 of Schedule 1 to, the Act and by the Transport and Works (Description of Works Interfering with Navigation) Order 1992f4 and all other powers enabling him in that behalf, hereby makes the following Order:—
