The Woolwich Ferry was established under the Metropolitan Board of Works (Various Powers) Act 1885, and has since been carried on under those provisions as amended from time to time. Since 1986 it has been carried on by the Secretary of State. Section 257 of the Greater London Authority Act 1999, which comes into force on 3rd July 2000, transfers the Secretary of State’s duty to work the Ferry to Transport for London.
Article 2 provides for the Secretary of State’s functions in relation to the ferry to vest in Transport for London, and article 3 confers power to make, vary and revoke byelaws, and saves existing byelaws, which since 1986 have had effect as orders of the Secretary of State. Article 4 transfers to Transport for London all property, rights and liabilities associated with the Ferry, and article 5 revokes the Woolwich Ferry Order 1986.
