The Norfolk County Council (Norwich Northern Distributor Road (A1067 to A47(T))) Order 2015

Alternative route for Marriott’s Way

23.—(1) Prior to the closure of Marriott’s Way to the public the undertaker must provide a reasonable alternative route so as to permit the passage of pedestrians, cyclists and equestrians, between the two points at which Marriott’s Way is to be temporarily closed during construction of the authorised development, such alternative route to be first approved in writing by the relevant planning authority.

(2) The undertaker must provide the alternative route approved under sub-paragraph (1) from the date on which Marriott’s Way is closed to the public until the date on which the replacement land for Marriott’s Way is provided and open to the public, subject to the undertaker being permitted to—

(a) cross the alternative route including with vehicles, plant and machinery;

(b) temporarily close the alternative route for the purposes of health and safety or in case of emergency; and

(c) temporarily close the alternative route for the purposes of works requiring its closure, and in relation to which the undertaker must give notice in accordance with sub-paragraph (3).

(3) If the undertaker is to temporarily close the alternative route under sub-paragraph (2)(c) it must, at least 3 days prior to any closure, erect notices advising of the closure of the alternative route, such notices to state the date of the closure and the date the alternative route will be re-opened. The notices must be erected at the end points of the closure and at such other points at which public users of the way would need to depart from their route if wishing to make a through route journey between Pendlesham Rise and Fir Covert Road.

(4) The undertaker must seek to minimise the number and extent of closures under sub-paragraph 2(c).
