Provisions as to breaking open streets, etc.S

Power to break open streets.S

1Subject to the provisions of this Part of this Schedule, a water authority F1 may, F1 for the purpose of laying, constructing, inspecting, repairing, altering, renewing or removing mains, service pipes, plant or other works, F1, break open [F2a road], and any cellar or vault below any [F3road], and any sewer, drain or tunnel in or under any such [F4road], and may remove and use the soil or other materials in or under any such [F4road]:

Provided that they shall in the exercise of the powers conferred by this paragraph cause as little inconvenience and do as little damage as may be, and for any damage done shall pay compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, by arbitration.

Protection for railway companies, navigation authorities, tramway undertakers, etc.S

2(1)Except in cases of emergency arising from defects in existing pipes, plant or works, [F5a private road] under the control or management of, or maintainable by, a railway company or navigation authority shall not be broken open without their consent, but that consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and any question whether or not consent is unreasonably withheld shall be referred to and determined by the Secretary of State.

(2)Where the authority F6 propose to break open [F7any length of road] which forms a level-crossing belonging to persons not being a railway company or navigation authority and which is not under the control or management of a railway company or navigation authority, they shall give to those persons the like notice as is referred to in [F8section 114 of the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991] and, if and in so far as the proposed work is likely to affect the structure of any bridge or other works belonging to those persons, shall carry out the work to the reasonable satisfaction of the engineer or other authorised officer acting on behalf of those persons in accordance with plans approved by him.

Any dispute arising under this sub-paragraph between the authority F6 and those persons shall be determined by arbitration.

(3)For the protection of persons entitled to the benefit of section 32 of the M1Tramways Act 1870 (which relates to the rights of authorities and companies, etc., to open roads) that section shall be construed as applying to operations authorised by the special Act, and in the said section as so applied any reference to a tramway shall be construed as including a reference to a trolley vehicle system.

(4)Nothing contained in this paragraph for the protection of owners of level-crossings shall affect the decision of any question which may arise as to the legality of the construction of, or the right to continue, any level-crossing.
