(a)comprise a reconstruction, widening, alteration in the level, resurfacing or specialist non-skid surface dressing of the part of the street concerned; and

(b)if executed in a footpath, footway or cycle track, extend for more than 30 metres of continuous length and result in the width of the footpath, footway or cycle track available for pedestrians or cyclists, as the case may be, being reduced by more than two-thirds; and

(c)if carried out in the carriageway, extend for more than 30 metres of continuous length and result in the use by vehicles of the carriageway being prohibited or the width of the carriageway available for vehicular traffic being reduced by more than one-third.

(2) A notice under Article 18 of the Order in relation to a restriction on works following substantial road works shall be published on the register.

(3) For the purposes of Article 18(5) of the Order, the following works may be executed by an undertaker—

Designation of protected streets

11.—(1) A street authority shall not designate a street as a protected street pursuant to Article 21 of the Order unless—

(a)the street fulfils a specific strategic traffic need; and

(b)the street is subject to such high and constant traffic flows that designation as a traffic-sensitive street would not be sufficient to avoid serious disruption to traffic caused by street works; and

(c)there exists a reasonable alternative for placing undertakers' apparatus which could lawfully be placed in the street.

(2) The procedure for making or withdrawing such a designation is specified in Schedule 1.

(3) The information to be made available by the street authority in respect of streets for the time being designated by them under Article 21 of the Order shall include the date of designation, details of the street and subject of designation in sufficient detail to enable it to be identified, and particulars of all consents to the placing of apparatus in the street.

Designation of streets with special engineering difficulties

12.—(1) The criteria for designating a street as having special engineering difficulties pursuant to Article 23 are—

(b)in the case of an engineering structure associated with a street, that its fundamental integrity and safety is dependent upon special measures being taken in the planning and execution of street works in the relevant part of the street in order to avoid serious failure of the structure concerned.

(2) The procedure for making or withdrawing such a designation is specified in Schedule 1.

(3) The information to be made available by the street authority in respect of each street for the time being designated by them under Article 23 of the Order shall include the date of designation, particulars of the street in sufficient detail to enable it to be identified, the features which justify the designation and particulars of the authority or undertaker with an interest in the street.

Designation of streets as traffic-sensitive

13.—(1) In any case where the street authority has not by agreement with a majority of statutory undertakers having apparatus in the street or a reasonable likelihood of having apparatus in the street designated a street as traffic-sensitive, the street authority shall not designate a street as traffic-sensitive pursuant to Article 24 of the Order unless one or more of the following criteria apply—

(a)the street is one on which at any time the street authority estimates the traffic flow to be greater than that shown in the table and on both sides of which the parking of vehicles is prohibited or restricted on the relevant day by a traffic regulation order under Article 4, or by an experimental traffic control scheme under Article 5, of the Road Traffic Regulation (Northern Ireland) Order 1997(7) for at least one hour between 7.30 a.m. and 9.30 a.m. and for at least one hour between 3.30 p.m. and 7.00 p.m. (whether or not the parking of vehicles is prohibited or restricted on the street at any other hours) or on which parking does not normally take place on either side during these hours.

(i)within the area of a critical signalised junction or 100 metres of the major arm, or 50 metres of the minor arm, of such junction, measured in each case from the junction, or

(ii)within the area of a critical gyratory or roundabout system or 40 metres of the major arm, or 20 metres of the minor arm of the approach to or exit from such system, measured in each case from the junction of that arm with the system.

(c)The street is—

(i)a street in respect of which there is in force a traffic regulation order under Article 4, or an experimental traffic control scheme under Article 5, of the Road Traffic Regulation (Northern Ireland) Order 1997 prohibiting (with or without exemptions) the use of the street by vehicular traffic for more than 8 hours in any period of 24 hours, or an order made under Article 100 of the Planning (Northern Ireland) Order 1991(8); and

(ii)the two-way pedestrian traffic flow is at least 22 persons per minute per metre width during the busiest hour on the relevant day.

(d)The street is a single carriageway two-way road less than 6.5 metres wide having a traffic flow of not less than 600 vehicles per hour which is a trunk road.

Provided that a street authority may only designate a street as traffic-sensitive for the times and on the dates when one or more of the criteria set out in sub-paragraphs (a) to (d) apply.

(2) The procedure for making or withdrawing a designation under Article 24 of the Order is specified in Schedule 1.

(3) The information to be made available by the street authority in respect of each street for the time being designated under Article 24 of the Order shall include the date of designation, particulars of the street in sufficient detail to enable it to be identified and, in the case of a limited designation, the times of day, days, periods or occasions to which the designation applies.

(4) In this regulation—

“critical signalised junction” means a traffic signal junction at which, in the absence of street works or works for road purposes at times when the exit is not blocked, no less than 5 per cent of peak hour vehicles on average fail to clear the junction on the first green signal;

“critical gyratory or roundabout system” means a gyratory or roundabout system where, in the absence of street works or works for road purposes, no less than 5 per cent of peak hour vehicles on average are delayed by more than 20 seconds;

“major arm” of a critical signalised junction means the arm which receives more than 10 seconds of green time per cycle or which is the exit for at least 10 per cent of traffic passing through the junction in the peak hour and “minor arm” of such a junction shall be construed accordingly;

“major arm” of a critical gyratory or roundabout system means an arm which is used by no less than 20 per cent of the vehicles using that system and “minor arm” of such a system shall be construed accordingly; and

Y Diweddaraf sydd Ar Gael (diwygiedig):Y fersiwn ddiweddaraf sydd ar gael o’r ddeddfwriaeth yn cynnwys newidiadau a wnaed gan ddeddfwriaeth ddilynol ac wedi eu gweithredu gan ein tîm golygyddol. Gellir gweld y newidiadau nad ydym wedi eu gweithredu i’r testun eto yn yr ardal ‘Newidiadau i Ddeddfwriaeth’.

Gwreiddiol (Fel y’i Deddfwyd neu y’i Gwnaed): Mae'r wreiddiol fersiwn y ddeddfwriaeth fel ag yr oedd pan gafodd ei deddfu neu eu gwneud. Ni wnaed unrhyw newidiadau i’r testun.
