12 Temporary stopping up of streets

(1) The Company, during and for the purposes of the execution of the authorised works, may temporarily stop up, alter or divert any street and may for any reasonable time— (a) divert the traffic from the street; and (b) subject to paragraph (3), prevent all persons from passing along the street. (2) The Company must provide reasonable access for pedestrians going to or from premises abutting a street affected by the temporary stopping up, alteration or diversion of a street under this article if there would otherwise be no such access. (3) Without limitation on the scope of paragraph (1), the Company may temporarily stop up, alter or divert the streets specified in columns (1) and (2) of Schedule 4 (streets to be temporarily stopped up) to the extent specified, by reference to the letters and numbers shown on the Order plans, in column (3) of that Schedule. (4) The Company must not exercise the powers conferred by this article— (a) in relation to any street specified as mentioned in paragraph (3) without first consulting the street authority; and (b) in relation to any other street without the consent of the street authority which may attach reasonable conditions to any consent, but such consent must not be unreasonably withheld. (5) Any person who suffers loss by the suspension of any private right of way under this article is entitled to compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, as if it were a dispute under Part 1 of the 1961 Act. (6) If within 28 days of receiving an application for consent under paragraph (4)(b) a street authority fails to notify the Company of its decision or refuses consent without giving any grounds for its refusal that street authority is deemed to have granted consent. (7) When making an application under paragraph (4)(b), the Company must notify the street authority of the effect of paragraph (6).

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.
