Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends Schedule 9 to the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984.

The 1984 Act enables local authorities to make various orders for regulating traffic, including orders regulating the speed of vehicles on roads other than trunk roads. Paragraphs 13 and 14 of Schedule 9, however, provide that certain orders cannot be made without the consent of the Secretary of State.

Previously an order imposing, varying or cancelling a speed limit on a principal road (as defined in paragraph 19 of the Schedule), could not be made without the consent of the Secretary of State. As a result of this Order that will no longer be the case.
