  "heading": "THE CONTEXT",
  "text": "It is hoped that the potential for intervention will encourage authorities to ensure that they carry out their network management duties. Nevertheless, if concerns develop that an authority may not be addressing the duties imposed by sections 16 and 17 of the Act, the Secretary of State intends to work with that authority, through an engagement process, to encourage the authority to recover so as to avoid reaching the stage where a traffic director has to be appointed. However, if it becomes clear that recovery is not being achieved, or is not an option, to the extent that he is satisfied that an authority are failing properly to perform any duty, he may make an intervention order making provision for or in connection with the appointment of a traffic director.",
