1

Where—

a

an undertaker is proposing to execute street works consisting of the placing of apparatus in a street (“street A”),

b

placing the apparatus in street A is likely to cause disruption to traffic, and

c

it appears to the street authority that—

i

there is another street (“street B”) in which the apparatus could be placed, and

ii

the conditions in subsection (2) are satisfied,

the authority may by direction require the undertaker not to place the apparatus in street A (but may not require him to place the apparatus in street B).

2

The conditions referred to in subsection (1)(c) are that—

a

disruption to traffic would be avoided or reduced if the apparatus were to be placed in street B;

b

placing the apparatus in street B would be a reasonable way of achieving the purpose for which the apparatus is to be placed; and

c

it is reasonable to require the undertaker not to place the apparatus in street A.

4

The procedure for giving a direction under this section shall be prescribed by the Secretary of State.

5
