Saving for other provisions
8.—(1) Nothing in these Regulations shall affect the stopping up or diversion of a walkway or the prohibition or restriction of the public use of a walkway under the provisions of any enactment specified in Schedule 5 to these Regulations.
(2) Nothing in these Regulations shall affect the operation in relation to a walkway of any statutory provision for improving, raising, lowering or otherwise altering a highway, or for constructing a new highway, or for providing new means of access to premises, or for acquiring land or rights over land for any such purpose, when such improvement, raising, lowering, alteration, construction or provision consists of or is incidental to the construction or improvement of some other highway which is not, and is not intended to be, a walkway.
(3) Where in pursuance of any such statutory provision as is mentioned in paragraph (2) of this Regulation a new footpath is constructed to take the place of a walkway which is stopped up under an enactment referred to in paragraph (1) of this Regulation, then the highway authority for the former walkway and the building owner may agree to accept the new footpath as a substitute for the former walkway and in that event the new footpath shall itself become a walkway and the agreement relating to the new footpath shall be the walkway agreement for it.
