40.—(1) Subject to the provisions of this article LUL may, for the purposes of and during construction of the authorised works—

(a) permit, suspend or modify the use as a parking place those roads specified in column (1) of Part 1 of Schedule 9 (temporary traffic regulation), along the lengths, between the points and to the extent specified in columns (2) and (3) of that Part of that Schedule, for the purposes specified in column (4) of that Part of that Schedule;

(b) suspend or convert the operation of the bus lanes on the roads specified in column (1) of Part 2 of Schedule 9, along the lengths, between the points and to the extent specified in columns (2) and (3) of that Part of that Schedule, for the purposes specified in column (4) of that Part of that Schedule;

(c) suspend or install the pedestrian crossings on the roads specified in column (1) of Part 3 of Schedule 9, at the locations specified in columns (2) and (3) of that Part of that Schedule, for the purposes specified in column (4) of that Part of that Schedule; and

(d) so far as may be necessary or expedient for the purposes of or in connection with construction of the authorised works—

(i) revoke, amend or suspend in whole or in part any order made, or having effect as if made, under the 1984 Act;

(ii) permit, prohibit or restrict the stopping, waiting, loading or unloading of vehicles on any road;

(iii) suspend or authorise the use as a parking place of any road;

(iv) make provision as to the direction or priority of vehicular traffic on any road; and

(v) permit or prohibit vehicular access to any road,

either at all times or at times, on days or during such periods as may be specified by LUL.

(2) The powers conferred by paragraph (1)(d) may only be exercised after LUL has consulted the chief officer of police, the traffic authority and such other persons as it considers necessary and appropriate, after LUL has taken into consideration any representations made to it by any such persons and after LUL has obtained the consent of the traffic authority in whose area the road concerned is situated (which must not be unreasonably withheld).

(3) LUL must not exercise the powers conferred by this article in relation to any road unless it has—

(a) given not less than 4 weeks’ notice in writing of its intention to do so to the chief officer of police and to the traffic authority in whose area the road is situated; and

(b) advertised its intention in such manner as the traffic authority may, within 7 days of its receipt of notice of LUL’s intention, specify in writing.

(4) Any prohibition, suspension or other provision made by LUL under paragraph (1) has effect as if duly made by, as the case may be—

(a) the traffic authority in whose area the road is situated, as a traffic regulation order under the 1984 Act; or

(b) the local authority in whose area the road is situated, as an order under section 32 (power of local authorities to provide parking places) of the 1984 Act,

and the instrument by which it is effected may specify savings and exemptions (in addition to those mentioned in Schedule 9) to which the prohibition, restriction or other provision is subject.

(5) Any prohibition, restriction or other provision made under this article may be suspended, varied or revoked by LUL from time to time by subsequent exercise of the powers conferred by paragraph (1).

(6) Expressions used in this article and in the 1984 Act have the same meaning in this article as in that Act.

(7) The powers conferred on LUL by this article with respect to any road have effect subject to any agreement entered into by LUL with any person with an interest in (or who undertakes activities in relation to) premises served by the road.
