12.—(1) Works executed under this Order in relation to a highway which consists of or includes a carriageway are to be treated for the purposes of Part 3 (street works in England and Wales) of the 1991 Act as major highway works if—

(b)they are works which, had they been executed by the local highway authority, might have been carried out in exercise of the powers conferred by section 64 M1 (dual carriageways and roundabouts) of the 1980 Act or section 184 M2 (vehicle crossings over footways and verges) of that Act.

(2) In Part 3 of the 1991 Act references to the highway authority concerned are, in relation to works which are major highway works by virtue of paragraph (1), to be construed as references to the undertaker.

(7) Nothing in article 13 (construction and maintenance of new, altered or diverted streets and other structures)—

(a)affects the operation of section 87 (prospectively maintainable highways) of the 1991 Act, and the undertaker is not by reason of any duty under that article to maintain a street or to be taken to be the street authority in relation to that street for the purposes of Part 3 of that Act; or
