The Network Rail (Leeds to Micklefield Enhancements) Order 2024
Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.
Change 1
41 Traffic regulation
(1) Subject to the provisions of this article, and the consent of the traffic authority in whose area the street concerned is situated, which consent must not be unreasonably withheld, Network Rail, may, insofar as maybe necessary or expedient for the purposes of, in connection with, or in consequence of the construction, maintenance or operation of the authorised works— (a) make provision for a weight restriction on vehicles permitted to use the carriageway over the Austhorpe Lane Bridge in the City of Leeds in the County of West Yorkshire; (b) revoke, amend or suspend in whole or in part any traffic regulation order made, or having effect as if made, under the 1984 Act; (c) permit, prohibit or restrict the parking, stopping, waiting, loading or unloading of vehicles on any road; (d) suspend or authorise the use as a parking place of any road; (e) restrict the speed of vehicles along any road; (f) make provision as to the direction or priority of vehicular traffic on any road; and (g) permit or prohibit vehicular access to any road, either at all times or at times, on days or during such periods as may be specified by Network Rail. (2) The powers conferred by paragraph (1) may be exercised at any time prior to the expiry of 12 months from the opening of the authorised works for public use but subject to paragraph (7) any prohibition, restriction or other provision made under paragraph (1) may have effect both before and after the expiry of that period. (3) If within 28 days of receiving an application for consent under paragraph (1) a traffic authority fails to notify Network Rail of its decision or refuses consent without giving any grounds for its refusal that traffic authority is deemed to have granted consent. (4) The powers conferred by paragraph (1) may only be exercised by Network Rail after it has consulted the chief officer of police and the traffic authority in whose area the road concerned is situated before complying with provisions of paragraph (5). (5) Network Rail must not exercise the powers conferred by paragraph (1) unless it has— (a) given not less than— (i) 12 weeks’ notice in writing of its intention so to do in the case of a prohibition, restriction or other provision intended to have effect permanently; or (ii) 4 weeks’ notice in writing of its intention so to do in the case of a prohibition, restriction or other provision intended to have effect temporarily, to the chief officer of police and to the traffic authority in whose area the street is situated; and (b) advertised its intention in such manner as the traffic authority may specify in writing within 28 days of its receipt of notice of Network Rail’s intention in the case of sub- paragraph (a)(i), or within 7 days of its receipt of notice of Network Rail’s intention in the case of sub-paragraph (a)(ii). (6) Any prohibition, restriction or other provision made by Network Rail under paragraph (1)— (a) has effect as if duly made by, as the case may be— (i) the traffic authority in whose area the street is situated, as a traffic regulation order under the 1984 Act; or (ii) the local authority in whose area the street is situated, as an order under section 32 (power of local authorities to provide parking places) of the 1984 Act, and the instrument by which it is effected may specify savings and exemptions to which the prohibition, restriction or other provision is subject; and (b) be deemed to be a traffic order for the purposes of Schedule 7 (road traffic contraventions subject to civil enforcement) to the Traffic Management Act 2004. (7) Any prohibition, restriction or other provision made under this article may be suspended, varied or revoked by Network Rail from time to time by subsequent exercise of the powers conferred by paragraph (1) within a period of 24 months from the opening of the authorised works for public use. (8) Expressions used in this article and in the 1984 Act have the same meaning in this article as in that Act. (9) The powers conferred on Network Rail by this article with respect to any road have effect subject to any agreement entered into by Network Rail with any person with an interest in (or who undertakes activities in relation to) premises served by the road.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".
Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.
How this law is officially changed
Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.
A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
