Limits of deviation
7.—(1) The following provisions of this article have effect subject to the requirement that the undertaker must, save for any works or operations authorised under articles 14 (protective works to buildings) or 15 (authority to survey and investigate land), construct the authorised development within the Order limits.
(2) In constructing and maintaining the non-linear works comprised in the authorised development, the undertaker may deviate laterally within the limits of deviation for those works shown on the works plans.
(3) Subject to paragraph (4), in constructing or maintaining the linear works comprised in the authorised development the undertaker may deviate laterally from the lines or situations shown on the works plans, within the Order limits, save that—
(a)in constructing or maintaining any linear work other than those referred to in column (1) of the table below, in deviating laterally from the centrelines shown on the works plans, the situation of the centreline may be varied up to a maximum of 3 metres either side of the centreline of that work as shown on the works plans; and
(b)in relation to the linear works referred to in column (1) of the table below, the centreline of that work may be—
(i)situated on the north side of the centreline of that work shown on the works plans, by a distance not exceeding the permitted limit for each such part, set out in the corresponding entry in column (2) of the table below; and
(ii)situated on the south side of the centreline of that work shown on the works plans, by a distance not exceeding the permitted limit for each such part, set out in the corresponding entry in column (3) of the table below.

(5) In constructing or maintaining the authorised development, the undertaker may deviate vertically from the levels shown on the engineering section drawings: plan and profiles and the engineering section drawings: cross sections—

(b)downwards to any extent not exceeding 1 metre, or, in relation to the parts of the authorised development referred to in column (1) of the table below, not exceeding the permitted limit for each such part, set out in the corresponding entry in column (3) of that table; and
(c)except that—
(i)in the case of Work Nos. 03-1A and 03-1B, the upwards and downwards vertical limits set out in paragraphs (a) and (b) will not apply where their application would preclude the undertaker from retaining the existing levels of the A66 carriageway along the lengths of those numbered works; and
(ii)in the case of Work No. 07-8, the upwards and downwards vertical limits set out in paragraphs (a) and (b) will not apply to the levels shown eastwards of chainage reference point 650,000 on Sheet 9 of the engineering section drawings: plan and profiles for scheme 07 where their application would preclude the undertaker from tying Work No. 07-8 into the existing ground levels at Bowes Cross Farm.

(6) The maximum vertical limits of deviation referred to in paragraph (5) do not apply where it is demonstrated by the undertaker to the Secretary of State’s satisfaction and the Secretary of State certifies accordingly, following consultation with the relevant planning authority, that a deviation in excess of these limits would not give rise to any materially new or materially different environmental effects in comparison with those reported in the environmental statement.
(7) Without limitation on the scope of paragraphs (2) to (5), in constructing or maintaining the authorised development the undertaker may deviate by up to 3 metres from the points of commencement and termination of any linear works shown on the works plans.
