(2)An undertaker executing emergency works shall, if the works are of a kind in respect of which notice is [F13(or would, but for paragraph 2(6) of Schedule 3A, be)] required by section 55, give notice as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event within two hours (or such other period as may be prescribed) of the works being begun, to the persons to whom notice would be required to be given under that section.

(i)a relevant authority, or

(ii)the person to whom any apparatus belongs,

and that his ignorance was not due to any negligence on his part or to any failure to make inquiries which he ought reasonably to have made.

(3)A copy of the notice shall be given to each of the following—

(a)where there is a public sewer in the part of the highway to which the restriction relates, to the sewer authority,

(b)where the part of the highway to which the restriction relates is carried or crossed by a bridge vested in a transport authority, or crosses or is crossed by any other property held or used for the purposes of a transport authority, to that authority,

(c)where in any other case the part of the highway to which the restriction relates is carried or crossed by a bridge, to the bridge authority,

(d)any person who has given notice under section 54 (advance notice of certain works) of his intention to execute street works in the part of the highway to which the restriction relates, F18...

(e)any other person having apparatus in the part of the highway to which the restriction relates; [F19and

(f)any other person of a prescribed description;]

(5)An undertaker shall not in contravention of a restriction imposed by a notice under this section break up or open the part of the highway to which the restriction relates, except—

(a)to execute emergency works,
