Maintenance of altered or diverted streets

16.—(1) Where a street is altered or diverted under this Order, the altered or diverted part of the street must, when completed to the reasonable satisfaction of the street authority (confirmation of which must not be unreasonably withheld), unless otherwise agreed, be maintained by and at the expense of the undertaker for a period of 12 months from its completion and after the expiry of that period by and at the expense of the street authority.

(a)the character of the street including its use for a transit system, and the traffic which was reasonably to be expected to use it;

(b)the standard of maintenance appropriate for a street of that character and used by such traffic;

(c)the state of repair in which a reasonable person would have expected to find the street;

(d)whether the undertaker knew, or could reasonably have been expected to know, that the condition of the part of the street to which the action relates was likely to cause danger to users of the street; and

(e)where the undertaker could not reasonably have been expected to repair that part of the street before the cause of action arose, what warning notices of its condition had been displayed,

but for the purposes of such a defence it is not relevant that the undertaker had arranged for a competent person to carry out or supervise the maintenance of that part of the street to which the action relates unless it is also proved that the undertaker had given the competent person proper instructions with regard to the maintenance of the street and that the competent person had carried out those instructions.

Restoration of streets if street tramway discontinued

(a)any brackets, cables, wires, insulators and other apparatus required in connection with the authorised transit system; and

(b)any lamps, cameras, brackets, pipes, electric lamps and other apparatus required for the provision of additional or substitute street lighting or closed circuit television required in connection with the authorised transit system.

(2) The power conferred by paragraph (1) to affix to any building such apparatus as is mentioned in that paragraph includes the power to extend the apparatus over any land or other building between the frontage of the building to which the apparatus is affixed and the street.

(3) The undertaker must not, under the powers conferred by this article, affix any apparatus to any part of a building without the consent of the relevant owner of that part of the building; and such consent may be given subject to reasonable conditions but must not be unreasonably withheld.

(4) Paragraph (3) has effect without affecting any other right which the undertaker may have or obtain to affix apparatus to a building.

(5) Where —

(a)the undertaker serves on the relevant owner of part of a building a notice requesting the relevant owner’s consent to the affixing of specified apparatus to that part of the building under paragraph (3); and

(b)the relevant owner does not within the period of 56 days beginning with the date upon which the notice is served give consent unconditionally or give it subject to conditions or refuse it,

the consent is to be deemed to have been withheld.

(6) Where, in the opinion of the undertaker, a consent required under paragraph (3) for the affixing of specified apparatus is unreasonably withheld or given subject to unreasonable conditions, it may apply to the magistrates’ court who may either allow the apparatus to be affixed subject to such conditions, if any, as it thinks fit or may determine that the consent was not unreasonably withheld.

(7) Where apparatus is affixed to or extended over any part of a building under this article—

(a)any relevant owner for the time being of that part of the building may serve on the undertaker not less than 6 months’ notice requiring the undertaker at its own expense temporarily to remove the apparatus during any demolition, reconstruction or repair of the building if such removal is reasonably necessary for that purpose; and

(b)the undertaker has the right as against any person having an interest in the building to retain and maintain the apparatus.

(8) Where, in the opinion of the undertaker, a requirement temporarily to remove any apparatus affixed to or extended over a building under this article during any demolition, reconstruction or repair of the building is not reasonably necessary for that purpose, the undertaker may refer the matter to an arbitrator under article 53 (arbitration) who may either allow the apparatus to be temporarily removed or may order that it is not to be temporarily removed.

(9) The undertaker must pay compensation to the owners and occupiers of the building for any loss or damage sustained by them by reason of the exercise of the powers conferred by paragraphs (1) and (6)(b); and any dispute as to a person’s entitlement to compensation, or as to the amount of compensation, must be determined under Part 1 (determination of questions of disputed compensation) of the 1961 Act.

(10) In this article, “relevant owner”—

(b)in relation to any part of an external wall of a building which is the subject of a lease or tenancy having an unexpired term exceeding 15 years not being a part to which sub-paragraph (a) applies, means the person who for the time being is the lessee or tenant under the lease or tenancy of that part or (if there is more than one such lease or tenancy) the lease or tenancy in possession; or

(c)in relation to any part of a building or land not falling within sub-paragraph (a) or (b) means the person for the time being entitled to receive the rack rent of that part of the building whether on that person’s own account or as trustee for any other person, or who would so receive it if that part of the building were let at a rack rent.

Discharge of water

21.—(1) The undertaker may use any watercourse or any public sewer or drain for the drainage of water in connection with the construction, operation or maintenance of the authorised works and for that purpose may lay down, take up and alter pipes and may, on any land within the Order limits, or in any street along which the authorised transit system is authorised to be laid, make openings into, and connections with, the watercourse, sewer or drain.

(2) Any dispute arising from the exercise of the power conferred by paragraph (1) to connect to or use a public sewer or drain is to be determined as if it were a dispute under section 106 (right to communicate with public sewers) of the Water Industry Act 1991(32).

(3) The undertaker must not discharge any water into any watercourse, public sewer or drain except with the consent of the person to whom it belongs; and such consent may be given subject to such terms and conditions as that person may reasonably impose but must not be unreasonably withheld.

(4) The undertaker must not make any opening into any public sewer or drain except—

(a)in accordance with plans approved by the person to whom the sewer or drain belongs, but such approval must not be unreasonably withheld; and

(b)where that person has been given the opportunity to supervise the making of the opening.

(5) The undertaker must not, in the exercise of the powers conferred by this article, damage or interfere with the bed or banks of any watercourse forming part of a main river.

(6) The undertaker must take such steps as are reasonably practicable to secure that any water discharged into a watercourse or public sewer or drain under the powers conferred by this article is as free as may be practicable from gravel, soil or other solid substance, oil or matter in suspension.

(7) Nothing in this article overrides the requirement for an environmental permit under regulation 12(1)(b) (requirement for environmental permit) of the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2010(33).

(8) In this article—

(a)“public sewer or drain” means a sewer or drain which belongs to a sewerage undertaker, the Environment Agency, an internal drainage board, a local authority or a harbour authority within the meaning of the Harbours Act 1964(34); and

(b)other expressions, excluding watercourses, used both in this article and in the Water Resources Act 1991(35) have the same meaning as in that Act.

Works to safeguard buildings and the operation of the authorised transit system

22.—(1) Subject to the following provisions of this article, the undertaker may at its own expense and from time to time carry out such safeguarding works to any building lying within the Order limits as the undertaker considers to be necessary or expedient.

(2) Safeguarding works may be carried out—

(a)at any time before or during the construction, in the vicinity of the building, of any part of the authorised works (other than works authorised by this article); or

(b)after the completion of the construction of that part of the authorised works (other than works authorised by this article), at any time up to the end of the period of 5 years beginning with the day on which that part of the authorised works is first opened for use.

(3) For the purpose of determining how the functions under this article are to be exercised the undertaker may enter and survey any building falling within paragraph (1) and any land within its curtilage.

(4) For the purpose of carrying out safeguarding works under this article to a building the undertaker may (subject to paragraphs (5) and (6))—

(a)enter the building and any land within its curtilage; and

(b)where the works cannot be carried out reasonably conveniently without entering land which is adjacent to the building but outside its curtilage, enter the adjacent land (but not any building erected on it).

(5) Before exercising—

(a)a right under paragraph (1) to carry out safeguarding works to a building;

(b)a right under paragraph (3) to enter a building and any land within its curtilage;

(c)a right under paragraph (4)(a) to enter a building and land within its curtilage; or

(d)a right under paragraph (4)(b) to enter land,

the undertaker must, except in the case of emergency, serve on the owners and occupiers of the building or land not less than 14 days’ notice of its intention to exercise that right and, in a case falling within sub-paragraph (a) or (c), specifying the safeguarding works proposed to be carried out.

(6) Where notice is served under paragraph (5)(a), (c) or (d), the owner or occupier of the building or land concerned may, by serving a counter-notice within the period of 10 days beginning with the day on which the notice was served, require the question of whether it is necessary or expedient to carry out the safeguarding works or to enter the building or land to be referred to arbitration under article 53 (arbitration).

(7) The undertaker must compensate the owners and occupiers of any building or land in relation to which the powers conferred by this article have been exercised for any loss or damage arising to them by reason of the exercise of those powers.

(8) Where—

(a)safeguarding works are carried out under this article to a building; and

(b)within the period of 5 years beginning with the day on which the part of the authorised works constructed within the vicinity of the building is first opened for use, it appears that the safeguarding works are inadequate to protect the building against damage caused by the construction or operation of that part of the works,

the undertaker must compensate the owners and occupiers of the building for any damage sustained by them.

(9) Without affecting article 52 (no double recovery), nothing in this article relieves the undertaker from any liability to pay compensation under section 10(2) (further provision as to compensation for injurious affection) of the 1965 Act.

(10) Any compensation payable under paragraph (7) or (8) is to be determined, in case of dispute, under Part 1 (determination of questions of disputed compensation) of the 1961 Act.

(11) In this article “safeguarding works”, in relation to a building, means—

(a)underpinning, strengthening and any other works the purpose of which is to prevent damage which may be caused to the building by the construction, maintenance or operation of the authorised works;

(b)any works the purpose of which is to remedy any damage which has been caused to the building by the construction, maintenance or operation of the authorised works; and

(c)any works the purpose of which is to secure the safe operation of the authorised transit system or to prevent or minimise the risk of such operation being disrupted.

Planning permission

23.  Planning permission which is deemed by a direction under section 90(2A)(36) (development with government authorisation) of the 1990 Act to be granted in relation to the authorised works is to be treated as specific planning permission for the purposes of section 264(3)(a) (cases in which land is to be treated as operational land for the purposes of that Act) of that Act.

Power to survey and investigate land, etc.

24.—(1) The undertaker may for the purposes of this Order—

(a)survey or investigate any land within the Order limits, any street along which the authorised transit system is authorised to be laid and any street having a junction with such a street;

(f)enter on the land for the purpose of exercising the powers conferred by sub-paragraphs (a) to (e).

(2) No land may be entered, or equipment placed or left on or removed from the land, under paragraph (1), unless at least 7 days’ notice has been served on every owner and occupier of the land.

(3) Any person entering land under this article on behalf of the undertaker—

(a)must, if so required, before or after entering the land produce written evidence of that person’s authority to do so; and

(b)may take onto the land such vehicles and equipment as are necessary to carry out the survey or investigation or to make the trial holes.

(4) No trial holes are to be made under this article—

(a)in a carriageway or footway without the consent of the highway authority; or

(b)in a private street without the consent of the street authority,

but such consent must not be unreasonably withheld.

(5) The undertaker must pay compensation for any damage occasioned, by the exercise of the powers conferred by this article, to the owners and occupiers of the land, such compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, under Part 1 of the 1961 Act.

(6) Nothing in this article overrides the requirement to obtain scheduled monument consent under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979(37).

25.—(1) The authorised transit system must be operated by electricity or, in an emergency or for the purposes of maintenance, by diesel power or other means.

(2) The authorised transit system must be constructed to a gauge of 1,435 millimetres.

(3) Where the authorised transit system is constructed along a street or in any place to which the public has access (including any place to which the public has access only on making a payment), the undertaker must take such care as in all the circumstances is reasonable to ensure that the authorised transit system is constructed and maintained so that the street or other place is safe for other users.

(4) When considering what measures are required under paragraph (3) the undertaker must have particular regard to the character and usage of the street or other place and to those who could reasonably be expected to use it.

(5) Where the authorised transit system has been constructed in a street, works by any person which affect or are likely to affect the undertaker’s obligations under paragraph (3), including works to any street surfaces and works affecting any equipment or apparatus placed in the street under article 11 (power to keep apparatus in streets), must not be carried out without the consent of the undertaker, which may be given subject to such reasonable terms and conditions as the undertaker may require but must not be unreasonably withheld.

Obstruction of construction of authorised works

26.  Any person who, without reasonable excuse—

(a)obstructs another person acting under the authority of the undertaker in setting out the lines of the scheduled works, or in constructing any of the authorised works; or

(b)interferes with, moves or removes any apparatus belonging to any person acting under the authority of the undertaker,

Application of Part 1 of the 1965 Act

28.—(1) Part 1 of the 1965 Act, in so far as not modified by or inconsistent with the provisions of this Order, applies to the acquisition of land under this Order—

(b)as if this Order were a compulsory purchase order under that Act.

(2) Part 1 of the 1965 Act, as applied by paragraph (1), has effect as if sections 4 (time limit for giving notice to treat) and 4A(39) (extension of time limit during challenge) were omitted.

Application of Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981

29.—(1) The Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981(40) applies as if this Order were a compulsory purchase order.

(2) The Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981, as applied by paragraph (1), has effect with the following modifications.

(3) In section 3 (preliminary notices), for subsection (1) substitute—

(1) Before making a declaration under section 4 with respect to any land which is subject to a compulsory purchase order the acquiring authority must include the particulars specified in subsection (3) in a notice which is—

(b)omit subsection (2).

(7) In section 7 (constructive notice to treat), in subsection (1)(a), omit “(as modified by section 4 of the Acquisition of Land Act 1981)”.

Power to acquire new rights

30.—(1) The undertaker may compulsorily acquire such easements or other rights over any land within the permanent limits as may be required for any purpose for which that land may be acquired, by creating them as well as by acquiring easements or other rights already in existence.

(2) Subject to section 8 (other provisions as to divided land) of the 1965 Act (as substituted by paragraph 5 of Schedule 5 (modification of compensation and compulsory purchase enactments for creation of new rights)), where the undertaker acquires a right under paragraph (1) the undertaker is not required to acquire a greater interest in that land.

(3) Schedule 5 has effect for the purpose of modifying the enactments relating to compensation and the provisions of the 1965 Act in their application to the compulsory acquisition under this article of a right over land by the creation of a new right.

Power to acquire subsoil only

31.—(1) The undertaker may compulsorily acquire so much of, or such rights in, the subsoil of the land within the permanent limits as may be required for any purpose for which that land may be acquired instead of acquiring the whole of the land.

(2) Where the undertaker acquires any part of, or rights in, the subsoil of land under paragraph (1) the undertaker cannot be required to acquire an interest in any other part of the land.

(3) Paragraph (2) does not prevent article 37 (acquisition of part of certain properties) from applying where the undertaker acquires a cellar, vault, arch or other construction forming part of a house, building or manufactory.

Rights under or over streets

32.—(1) The undertaker may enter upon and appropriate so much of the surface, subsoil of, or air-space over, any street shown on the works and land plans and described in the book of reference as may be required for the purposes of the authorised works and may use the surface, subsoil and air-space for those purposes or any other purpose ancillary to its transit system undertaking.

(2) Subject to paragraph (4), the power under paragraph (1) may be exercised in relation to a street without the undertaker being required to acquire any part of the street or any easement or right in the street.

(3) Subject to paragraph (5) any person who is an owner or occupier of land in respect of which the power of appropriation conferred by paragraph (1) is exercised without the undertaker acquiring any part of that person’s interest in the land, and who suffers loss by the exercise of that power, is entitled to compensation, the amount of such compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, under Part 1 of the 1961 Act.

Temporary possession of land

Temporary use of land for construction of works

33.—(1) The undertaker may, in connection with the carrying out of the authorised works—

(a)enter upon and take temporary possession of—

(b)in the case of land within the permanent limits, after the end of the period of 2 years beginning with the date of completion of the work for which temporary possession of the land was taken unless the undertaker has, by the end of that period, served a notice of entry under section 11 of the 1965 Act or made a declaration under section 4 of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 in relation to that land.

(4) Before giving up possession of land of which temporary possession has been taken under this article, the undertaker must remove all temporary works and restore the land to the reasonable satisfaction of the owners of the land; but the undertaker is not required to replace a building removed under this article.

(9) Section 13(43) (refusal to give possession to acquiring authority) of the 1965 Act applies to the temporary use of land under this article to the same extent as it applies to the acquisition of land under this Order by virtue of article 28(1) (application of Part 1 of the 1965 Act).

Temporary use of land for maintenance of works

34.—(1) Subject to paragraph (2), at any time during the maintenance period relating to the scheduled works, the undertaker may—

(a)enter upon and take temporary possession of any land within the Order limits reasonably required for the purpose of maintaining the work or any ancillary works connected with it or securing the safe operation of any such work; and

(11) Section 13 (refusal to give possession to acquiring authority) of the 1965 Act applies to the temporary use of land under this article to the same extent as it applies to the acquisition of land under this Order by virtue of article 28(1) (application of Part 1 of the 1965 Act).

(12) In this article, “the maintenance period”, in relation to a scheduled work, means the period of 5 years beginning with the date on which the work is opened for public use.

Compensation

Disregard of certain interests and improvements

35.—(1) In assessing the compensation (if any) payable to any person on the acquisition from that person of any land or interest in land under this Order, the tribunal must not take into account—

(a)any interest in land; or

(b)any enhancement of the value of any interest in land by reason of any building erected, works executed or improvement or alteration made on relevant land,

if the tribunal is satisfied that the creation of the interest, the erection of the building, the execution of the works or the making of the improvement or alteration was not reasonably necessary and was undertaken with a view to obtaining compensation or increased compensation.

(2) In paragraph (1) “relevant land” means the land acquired from the person concerned or any other land with which that person is, or was at the time when the building was erected, the works executed or the improvement or alteration made, directly or indirectly concerned.

Set-off for enhancement in value of retained land

36.—(1) In assessing the compensation payable to any person in respect of the acquisition from that person under this Order of any land (including the subsoil) the tribunal must set off against the value of the land so acquired any increase in value of any contiguous or adjacent land belonging to that person in the same capacity, which will accrue to that person by reason of the construction of the authorised works.

(2) In assessing the compensation payable to any person in respect of the acquisition from that person of any new rights over land (including the subsoil) under article 30 (power to acquire new rights), the tribunal must set off against the value of the rights so acquired—

(a)any increase in the value of the land over which the new rights are acquired; and

(b)any increase in value of any contiguous or adjacent land belonging to that person in the same capacity,

which will accrue to that person by reason of the construction of the authorised works.

(3) The 1961 Act has effect, subject to paragraphs (1) and (2), as if this Order were a local enactment for the purposes of that Act.

Supplementary

Acquisition of part of certain properties

37.—(1) This article applies instead of section 8(1)(44) (other provisions as to divided land) of the 1965 Act (as applied to this Order by article 28 (application of Part 1 of the 1965 Act)) in any case where—

(a)a notice to treat is served on a person (“the owner”) under the 1965 Act (as so applied) in respect of land forming part only of a house, building or manufactory or part only of land consisting of a house with a park or garden (“the land subject to the notice to treat”); and

(b)a copy of this article is served on the owner with the notice to treat.

(2) In such a case, the owner may, within the period of 21 days beginning with the day on which the notice was served, serve on the undertaker a counter-notice objecting to the sale of the land subject to the notice to treat and stating that the owner is willing and able to sell the whole (“the land subject to the counter-notice”).

(3) If no such counter-notice is served within that period, the owner is required to sell the land subject to the notice to treat.

(4) If such a counter-notice is served within that period, the question of whether the owner is required to sell only the land subject to the notice to treat is, unless the undertaker agrees to take the land subject to the counter-notice, to be referred to the tribunal.

(5) If on such a reference the tribunal determines that the land subject to the notice to treat can be taken—

(a)without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice; or

(b)where the land subject to the notice to treat forms part of land consisting of a house with a park or garden, without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice and without seriously affecting the amenity and convenience of the house,

the owner is required to sell the land subject to the notice to treat.

(6) If on such a reference the tribunal determines that only part of the land subject to the notice to treat can be taken—

(a)without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice; or

(b)where the land subject to the notice to treat forms part of land consisting of a house with a park or garden, without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice and without seriously affecting the amenity and convenience of the house,

the notice to treat is deemed to be a notice to treat for that part.

(7) If on such a reference the tribunal determines that—

(a)the land subject to the notice to treat cannot be taken without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice; but

(b)the material detriment is confined to a part of the land subject to the counter-notice,

the notice to treat is deemed to be a notice to treat for the land to which the material detriment is confined in addition to the land already subject to the notice, whether or not the additional land is land which the undertaker is authorised to acquire compulsorily under this Order.

(8) If the undertaker agrees to take the land subject to the counter-notice, or if the tribunal determines that—

(a)none of the land subject to the notice to treat can be taken without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice or, as the case may be, without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice and without seriously affecting the amenity and convenience of the house; and

(b)the material detriment is not confined to a part of the land subject to the counter-notice,

the notice to treat is deemed to be a notice to treat for the land subject to the counter-notice whether or not the whole of that land is land which the undertaker is authorised to acquire compulsorily under this Order.

(9) In any case where by virtue of a determination by the tribunal under this article a notice to treat is deemed to be a notice to treat for less land or more land than that specified in the notice, the undertaker may, within the period of 6 weeks beginning with the day on which the determination is made, withdraw the notice to treat; and, if it does so, must pay to the owner compensation for any loss or expense occasioned to the owner by the giving and withdrawal of the notice, to be determined in case of dispute by the tribunal.

(10) Where the owner is required under this article to sell part only of a house, building or manufactory or part only of land consisting of a house with a park or garden, the undertaker must pay the owner compensation for any loss sustained by the owner due to the severance of that part in addition to the value of the interest acquired.

whichever is sooner.

(2) Subject to the provisions of this article, all private rights of way over land owned by the undertaker which is within the permanent limits and is required for the purposes of this Order, are extinguished on the appropriation of the land for any of those purposes by the undertaker.

(a)any notice given by the undertaker before the completion of the acquisition of the land, the undertaker’s appropriation of it, the undertaker’s entry onto it or the undertaker’s taking temporary possession of it, as the case may be, that any or all of those paragraphs do not apply to any right of way specified in the notice; and

(b)any agreement made (whether before or after any of the events mentioned in sub-paragraph (a) and before or after the coming into force of this Order) between the undertaker and the person in or to whom the right of way in question is vested or belongs.

(6) If any such agreement as is referred to in paragraph (5)(b) which is made with a person in or to whom the right of way is vested or belongs is expressed to have effect also for the benefit of those deriving title from or under that person, it is effective in respect of the persons so deriving title, whether the title was derived before or after the making of the agreement.

PART 5PROTECTIVE PROVISIONS

Minerals

43.  Nothing in this Order affects the right of any person entitled to any mine or minerals of any description whatsoever under a street along which the authorised transit system is laid to work the mine or get the minerals; but this does not affect any liability (whether civil or criminal) of the person so entitled in respect of damage to the authorised transit system resulting from the exercise of any such right.

Saving for highway authorities

44.  Nothing in this Order affects any power of a highway authority to widen, alter, divert or improve any highway along which the authorised transit system is constructed.

Arrangements with highway authorities

45.—(1) The following provisions have effect unless otherwise agreed in writing between the undertaker and the highway authority concerned.

(2) In this article—

“highway” means a street vested in or maintainable by the highway authority;

“highway operations” means the construction or non-routine maintenance of any part of the authorised works which will involve interference with a highway or the traffic in a highway, any temporary stopping up, alteration or diversion of a highway, any occupation of the surface of a highway or any placing of equipment or apparatus in a highway; and

“plans” includes sections, drawings, specifications and particulars (including descriptions of methods of construction).

(3) Wherever in this article provision is made with respect to the approval or consent of the highway authority, that approval or consent must be in writing and may be given subject to such reasonable terms and conditions as the highway authority may require in the interests of safety and in order to minimise inconvenience to persons using the highway, but must not be unreasonably withheld.

(4) Prior to seeking approval under paragraph (6), the undertaker must consult the highway authority concerned as to any works to and changes in the management of the highway network which may be required to ensure the effective integration of the authorised transit system with other forms of highway traffic and, within 28 days of being requested in writing by the undertaker to do so, the highway authority must provide the undertaker with its opinion on the subject.

(5) Prior to seeking approval under paragraph (6), the undertaker must consult the highway authority concerned as to the design of any lighting for transit system stops, the design and positioning of any poles and brackets required for overhead line equipment and the design of any traffic signalling system for the authorised transit system.

(6) Without affecting the application of sections 59(54) and 60(55) (duty of street authority to co-ordinate and undertakers to co-operate) of the 1991 Act before commencing any highway operations, the undertaker must submit to the highway authority for its approval proper and sufficient plans and must not commence the highway operations until such plans have been approved or settled by arbitration.

(7) If, within 56 days after any plans have been submitted to a highway authority under paragraph (6), it has not intimated its disapproval and the grounds of disapproval, it is to be deemed to have approved them.

(8) In the event of any disapproval of plans by a highway authority under this paragraph, the undertaker may re-submit the plans with modifications and, in that event, if the highway authority has not intimated its disapproval and the grounds of disapproval within 28 days of the plans being re-submitted, it is to be deemed to have approved them.

(9) In submitting plans under paragraph (6), the undertaker must—

(a)ensure, so far as reasonably practicable, that the design of any lighting for transit system stops is such as not to cause confusion to highway users operating under normal highway lighting;

(b)ensure that the design and positioning of any poles and brackets required for overhead line equipment and the design of foundations, platforms, road islands, substations, electric lines and other apparatus are compatible, so far as reasonably practicable, with street furniture vested in the highway authority; and

(c)ensure that the design of any traffic signalling system for the authorised transit system is fully compatible with traffic signalling for other traffic users whilst achieving appropriate priority signalling for tramcars using the authorised transit system wherever practicable.

(10) Except in an emergency or where reasonably necessary to secure the safety of the public, no direction or instruction may be given by the highway authority to the contractors, employees or agents of the undertaker regarding the highway operations without the prior consent in writing of the undertaker but the highway authority is not liable for any additional costs which may be incurred as a result of the giving of instructions or directions under this paragraph.

(11) To facilitate liaison with the undertaker, the highway authority concerned must provide so far as is reasonably practicable a representative to attend meetings arranged by the undertaker respecting highway operations.

(12) So much of the authorised works as forms part of or is intended to become public highway, or part of any such highway, and which are not street works as respects which the provisions of Part 3 (street works in England and Wales) of the 1991 Act apply, must be completed in accordance with the reasonable requirements of the highway authority or, in case of difference between the undertaker and the highway authority as to whether those requirements have been complied with or as to their reasonableness, in accordance with such requirements as may be approved or settled by arbitration under article 53 (arbitration).

(13) The undertaker must not, except with the consent of the highway authority, alter or interfere with any sanitary convenience, refuge, sewer, drain, lamp column, traffic sign, bollard, bin for refuse or road materials or any connected apparatus, or any other property or work belonging to, or under the jurisdiction or control of, the highway authority on or under any highway or maintainable by them or the access to any such property or work.

(14) The undertaker must not, except with the consent of the highway authority, deposit any soil or materials or stand any vehicle or plant on or over any highway so as to obstruct or render less safe the use of the highway by any person or deposit any soil or materials on any highway except within a hoarding.

(15) The undertaker must, if reasonably so required by the highway authority, provide and maintain during such time as the undertaker may occupy any part of a highway for the purpose of the construction of any part of the authorised works, temporary ramps for vehicular traffic or pedestrian traffic, or both, and any other traffic measures required to protect the safety of road users in accordance with the standard recommended in Chapter 8 of the Traffic Signs Manual issued for the purposes of the Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2002(56) in such position as may be necessary to prevent undue interference with the flow of traffic in any highway.

(16) The undertaker must not place any hoardings on any part of any highway except for such period and in such manner as may be reasonably necessary.

(17) The undertaker must indemnify the highway authority against any claim which may arise as a result of any subsidence of, or damage to, any highway or any sanitary convenience, refuge, sewer, drain, lamp column, traffic sign, bollard, bin for refuse or road materials or any connected apparatus or any other property or work belonging to, or under the jurisdiction or control of, the highway authority on or under any highway, or maintainable by them, which may be caused by, or in consequence of, any act or default of the undertaker, its contractors, servants or agents.

(18) Unless otherwise agreed between the parties any difference arising between the undertaker and the highway authority under this article (other than a difference as to its meaning or construction) is to be determined by arbitration under article 53 (arbitration).

Article 30

SCHEDULE 5MODIFICATION OF COMPENSATION AND COMPULSORY PURCHASE ENACTMENTS FOR CREATION OF NEW RIGHTS

Compensation enactments

1.  The enactments for the time being in force with respect to compensation for the compulsory purchase of land apply with the necessary modifications as respects compensation in the case of a compulsory acquisition under this Order of a right by the creation of a new right as they apply as respects compensation on the compulsory purchase of land and interests in land.

2.—(1) Without limitation on the scope of paragraph 1, the Land Compensation Act 1973(61) has effect subject to the modifications set out in sub-paragraphs (2) and (3).

(2) In section 44(1) (compensation for injurious affection), as it applies to compensation for injurious affection under section 7 (measure of compensation in case of severance) of the 1965 Act as substituted by paragraph 4—

(a)for “land is acquired or taken” substitute “a right over land is purchased”; and

(b)for “acquired or taken from him” substitute “over which the right is exercisable”.

(3) For section 58(1)(62) (determination of material detriment where part of house etc. proposed for compulsory acquisition), as it applies to determinations under section 8 (other provisions as to divided land) of the 1965 Act as substituted by paragraph 5, substitute—

(1) In determining under section 8(1) or 34(2) of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965, or section 166(2) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 whether—

(a)a right over land consisting of a house, building or manufactory can be taken without material detriment or damage to the house, building or manufactory; or

(b)a right over land consisting of a park or garden belonging to a house can be taken without seriously affecting the amenity or convenience of the house,

the Upper Tribunal must take into account not only the effect of the acquisition of the right but also the use to be made of the right proposed to be acquired, and, in a case where the right is proposed to be acquired for works or other purposes extending to other land, the effect of the whole of the works and the use to be made of the other land.

Adaptation of the 1965 Act

3.—(1) The 1965 Act has effect with the modifications necessary to make it apply to the compulsory acquisition under this Order of a right by the creation of a new right as it applies to the compulsory acquisition under this Order of land, so that, in appropriate contexts, references in that Act to land are to be read (according to the requirements of the particular context) as referring to, or as including references to—

(a)the right acquired or to be acquired; or

(b)the land over which the right is or is to be exercisable.

(2) Without limitation on the scope of sub-paragraph (1), Part 1 (compulsory purchase under Acquisition of Land Act of 1946) of the 1965 Act applies in relation to the compulsory acquisition under this Order of a right by the creation of a new right with the modifications specified in the following provisions of this Schedule.

4.  For section 7 (measure of compensation in case of severance) of the 1965 Act substitute—

7.  In assessing the compensation to be paid by the acquiring authority under this Act regard must be had not only to the extent (if any) to which the value of the land over which the right is to be acquired is depreciated by the acquisition of the right but also to the damage (if any) to be sustained by the owner of the land by reason of its severance from other land of the owner, or injuriously affecting that other land by the exercise of the powers conferred by this or the special Act.

5.  For section 8 (other provisions as to divided land) of the 1965 Act substitute—

8.(1) Where in consequence of the service on a person under section 5 of this Act of a notice to treat in respect of a right over land consisting of a house, building or manufactory or of a park or garden belonging to a house (“the relevant land”)—

(a)a question of disputed compensation in respect of the purchase of the right would apart from this section fall to be determined by the Upper Tribunal (“the tribunal”); and

(b)before the tribunal has determined that question, the tribunal is satisfied that the person has an interest in the whole of the relevant land and is able and willing to sell that interest, and—

(i)where that land consists of a house, building or manufactory, that the right cannot be purchased without material detriment to that land; or

(ii)where that land consists of such a park or garden, that the right cannot be purchased without seriously affecting the amenity or convenience of the house to which that land belongs,

the Transport for Greater Manchester (Light Rapid Transit System) (Trafford Park Extension) Order 2016(63) (“the Order”), in relation to that person, ceases to authorise the purchase of the right and is deemed to authorise the purchase of that person’s interest in the whole of the relevant land including, where the land consists of such a park or garden, the house to which it belongs, and the notice is deemed to have been served in respect of that interest on such date as the tribunal directs.

(2) Any question as to the extent of the land in which the Order is deemed to authorise the purchase of an interest by virtue of subsection (1) of this section is to be determined by the tribunal.

(3) Where in consequence of a determination of the tribunal that it is satisfied as mentioned in subsection (1) of this section the Order is deemed by virtue of that subsection to authorise the purchase of an interest in land, the acquiring authority may, at any time within the period of 6 weeks beginning with the date of the determination, withdraw the notice to treat in consequence of which the determination was made; but nothing in this subsection affects any other power of the authority to withdraw the notice.

6.  The following provisions of the 1965 Act (which state the effect of a deed poll executed in various circumstances where there is no conveyance by persons with interests in the land), that is to say—

(a)section 9(4) (failure by owners to convey);

(b)paragraph 10(3) of Schedule 1 (owners under incapacity);

(c)paragraph 2(3) of Schedule 2 (absent and untraced owners); and

(d)paragraphs 2(3) and 7(2) of Schedule 4 (common land),

are modified so as to secure that, as against persons with interests in the land which are expressed to be overridden by the deed, the right which is to be compulsorily acquired is vested absolutely in the acquiring authority.

7.  Section 11(64) (powers of entry) of the 1965 Act is modified so as to secure that, as from the date on which the acquiring authority has served notice to treat in respect of any right, it has power, exercisable in the equivalent circumstances and subject to the equivalent conditions, to enter for the purpose of exercising that right (which is deemed for this purpose to have been created on the date of service of the notice); and sections 12(65) (penalty for unauthorised entry) and 13(66) (entry on warrant in the event of obstruction) of the 1965 Act are modified correspondingly.

8.  Section 20(67) (protection for interests of tenants at will, etc.) of the 1965 Act applies with the modifications necessary to secure that persons with such interests in land as are mentioned in that section are compensated in a manner corresponding to that in which they would be compensated on a compulsory acquisition under this Order of that land, but taking into account only the extent (if any) of such interference with such an interest as is actually caused, or likely to be caused, by the exercise of the right in question.

9.  Section 22 (interests omitted from purchase) of the 1965 Act is modified so as to enable the acquiring authority, in circumstances corresponding to those referred to in that section, to continue to be entitled to exercise the right acquired, subject to compliance with that section as respects compensation.

Article 46

SCHEDULE 8PROTECTION OF PUBLIC UTILITIES

Effect

1.  For the protection of the public utilities referred to in this Schedule the following provisions have effect, unless otherwise agreed in writing between the undertaker and the public utility concerned.

Definitions

2.  In this Schedule—

“apparatus” means—

(a)

in the case of Electricity North West Limited, electric lines or electrical plant (as defined in the Electricity Act 1989(68)), belonging to or maintained by that public utility;

(b)

in the case of National Grid Gas Plc, any mains, pipes or other apparatus belonging to or maintained by that public utility for the purposes of gas supply,

and includes any structure in which apparatus is or is to be lodged or which gives or will give access to apparatus;

“functions” includes powers and duties;

“in”, in a context referring to apparatus or necessary alternative apparatus in land, includes a reference to apparatus or necessary alternative apparatus under, over or upon land;

“necessary alternative apparatus” means alternative apparatus adequate to enable a public utility to fulfil its statutory or licensed functions in a manner no less efficient than previously;

“plan” includes all designs, drawings, specifications, method statements, soil reports, programmes, calculations, risk assessments and other documents that are reasonably necessary properly and sufficiently to describe the works to be executed; and

“public utility” means, as the case may be—

(a)

Electricity North West Limited, company number 02366949, whose registered office is at 304 Bridgewater Place, Birchwood Park, Warrington, WA3 6XG; and/or

(b)

National Grid Gas Distribution Limited, company number 10080864, whose registered office is at 1-3 Strand, London, WC2N 5EH;

and in relation to any apparatus, means the public utility to whom it belongs or by whom it is maintained; and

“specified work” means any of the authorised works which will or may be situated over or within 15 metres measured in any direction of, or may in any way adversely affect, any apparatus, the removal of which has not been required under paragraph 8.

On-street apparatus

3.  This Schedule does not apply to apparatus in respect of which the relations between the undertaker and the public utility are regulated by the provisions of Part 3 (street works licence) of the 1991 Act.

Apparatus in stopped-up streets

4.—(1) Where any street is stopped up under article 13 (stopping up of streets), any public utility whose apparatus is in the street has the same powers and rights in respect of that apparatus as it enjoyed immediately before the stopping up and the undertaker must as soon as reasonably practicable grant to the public utility legal easements reasonably satisfactory to the public utility in respect of such apparatus and access to it, but nothing in this paragraph affects any right of the undertaker or of the public utility to require the removal of that apparatus under paragraph 8 or the power of the undertaker to carry out works under paragraphs 20 to 27.

(2) Regardless of the temporary stopping up or diversion of any highway under the powers conferred by article 14 (temporary stopping up of streets) the public utility is at liberty at all times to take all necessary access across any such temporarily stopped up highway and to execute and do all works and things in, upon or under any such highway as may be reasonably necessary to enable the public utility to maintain any apparatus which at the time of the stopping up or diversion was in that highway and only in a manner that is consistent with and subject to any restriction or limitations that applied on such access or works under the terms of the 1991 Act enjoyed immediately before the temporary stopping up.

Protective works to building

5.  The undertaker must, so far as is reasonably practicable, exercise the powers conferred by article 22 (works to safeguard buildings and the operation of the authorised transit system) so as not to obstruct or render less convenient the access to any apparatus without the written consent of the public utility (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

Acquisition

6.  Subject to paragraph 7, the undertaker must not acquire any apparatus or land interest or override any easement or other interest of or from a public utility under the powers conferred by this Order otherwise than by agreement, which must not be unreasonably withheld.

7.  The undertaker may in exercise of the powers conferred by this Order acquire or appropriate any land in which any apparatus is placed and, following the removal of such apparatus in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule, any rights in that land relating to that apparatus are extinguished but no apparatus is to be removed nor is any right of the public utility to use, maintain or renew any apparatus to be extinguished until any necessary alternative apparatus has been constructed and is in operation to the reasonable satisfaction of the public utility.

Removal of apparatus

8.  Paragraphs 9 to 16 apply where—

(a)the undertaker requires the removal of any apparatus for the purpose of constructing any of the authorised works and gives to the public utility not less than 56 days’ written notice of that requirement together with a plan of the proposed work and of the proposed position of the necessary alternative apparatus to be provided or constructed; or

(b)in consequence of the exercise or proposed exercise of any of the powers conferred by this Order, the public utility reasonably requires the removal of any apparatus.

9.  Subject to paragraph 10, the undertaker must afford to the public utility the necessary rights and facilities for the construction of any necessary alternative apparatus in other land of the undertaker and subsequently for the use, maintenance and renewal of such apparatus.

10.  If the undertaker is unable to obtain the rights and facilities referred to in paragraph 9, the public utility must, on receipt of a written notice to that effect from the undertaker, use its best endeavours to obtain the necessary rights and facilities.

11.  The obligation imposed upon the public utility by paragraph 10 does not extend to the exercise by the public utility of any power to acquire any land or rights in land by compulsory purchase order.

12.  Any necessary alternative apparatus to be constructed by the public utility under this Schedule must be constructed in such manner, and in such line or situation, as may be agreed between the public utility and the undertaker or, in default of agreement, determined by arbitration under article 53 (arbitration).

13.  The public utility must, after the manner of construction and the line or situation of any necessary alternative apparatus have been agreed or determined by arbitration and after the grant to or obtaining by the public utility of any such facilities and rights as are referred to in paragraph 9, proceed without unnecessary delay to construct and bring into operation the necessary alternative apparatus and subsequently to remove any apparatus required by the undertaker to be removed in accordance with paragraph 8.

14.  If the undertaker gives notice in writing to the public utility that it desires to carry out any part of any work in connection with the construction or removal of apparatus, such work, instead of being carried out by the public utility, may be carried out by the undertaker with the prior written consent of the public utility (which must not be unreasonably withheld and may be subject to any such conditions as are reasonable and proper to protect the apparatus) in accordance with plans and in a position agreed between the public utility and the undertaker or, in default of agreement, determined by arbitration under article 53 (arbitration), without unnecessary delay under the superintendence (if given) and to the reasonable satisfaction of the public utility.

15.  In carrying out any work under paragraph 14 the undertaker must comply with all statutory obligations which would have been applicable had the works been carried out by the public utility.

16.  Nothing in paragraph 14 authorises the undertaker to carry out the actual placing, erection, installation, bedding, packing, removal, connection or disconnection of any apparatus or, where the apparatus is laid in a trench, execute any filling around the apparatus within 300 millimetres (measured in any direction) of the apparatus.

Facilities and rights for necessary alternative apparatus

17.  Where, in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule, the undertaker affords to the public utility facilities and rights for the construction, use, maintenance and renewal in land of the undertaker of necessary alternative apparatus in substitution for apparatus to be removed, those facilities and rights are to be granted upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed between the undertaker and the public utility or, in default of agreement, determined by arbitration under article 53 (arbitration).

18.  In determining the terms and conditions mentioned in paragraph 17 in respect of necessary alternative apparatus to be constructed across or along the authorised works the arbitrator must—

(a)give effect to all reasonable requirements of the undertaker for ensuring the safety of the authorised works and for securing any subsequent alterations or adaptations of the necessary alternative apparatus which may be required to prevent interference with any such works; and

(b)so far as it may be reasonable and practicable to do so in the circumstances of the case, give effect to any terms and conditions (if any) applicable to the apparatus constructed across or along the authorised works for which the necessary alternative apparatus is to be substituted and to any other reasonable requirements of the public utility.

19.  If the facilities and rights to be afforded by the undertaker in respect of any necessary alternative apparatus under paragraph 17 and the terms and conditions subject to which the same are to be granted are, in the opinion of the arbitrator, more or less favourable on the whole to the public utility than the facilities, rights, terms and conditions applying to the apparatus to be removed, the arbitrator must make such provision for the payment of compensation to or by the undertaker by or to the public utility in that respect as appears to the arbitrator to be reasonable having regard to all the circumstances of the case.

Retained apparatus

20.—(1) Not less than 56 days before commencing to construct or renew any specified work, the undertaker must submit to the public utility plans of the works.

(2) The plan to be submitted to the public utility under sub-paragraph (1) must (unless otherwise agreed in writing) include a method statement and describe—

(a)the exact position of the specified work;

(b)the level at which the specified works are proposed to be constructed or renewed; and

(c)the manner of their construction or renewal including details of excavation and positioning of plant.

21.  The undertaker must not commence the construction or renewal of any specified work until the public utility has given written approval of the plans so submitted.

22.  Any approval of the public utility required under paragraph 21—

(a)may be given subject to reasonable conditions for any purpose mentioned in paragraph 23;

(b)must not be unreasonably withheld; and

(c)is to be deemed to have been given if it is neither given nor refused within 56 days of the submission of plans for approval.

23.  A specified work is to be constructed only in accordance with the approved plans and all reasonable requirements made by the public utility for the alteration, or otherwise for the protection, of the apparatus, or for securing access to it, and the public utility is entitled to watch and inspect the carrying out of the work.

24.  If within 42 days after the submission to it of any plans under paragraph 20, in consequence of the works proposed by the undertaker the public utility reasonably requires the removal of any apparatus and gives written notice to the undertaker of that requirement, the provisions of this Schedule are to have effect as if the removal of the apparatus had been required by the public utility under paragraph 8.

25.  Nothing in paragraph 20 or 24 precludes the undertaker from submitting at any time, or from time to time, but in any case not less than 28 days before commencing the construction of any specified work, a new plan in place of the plan previously submitted, in which case the provisions of those paragraphs are to apply to, and in respect of, the new plan.

26.  The undertaker is not required to comply with paragraph 20 in a case of emergency but, in such a case, it must give to the public utility notice as soon as reasonably practicable, and a plan of the works as soon as reasonably practicable afterwards, and must comply with paragraph 23 so far as reasonably practicable in the circumstances.

27.  Nothing in paragraph 26 entitles the undertaker to carry out works to any apparatus but, upon receipt of notice from the undertaker, the public utility must take such action as may be required (which may include the carrying out of works if it thinks fit) without unnecessary delay.

Expenses and costs

28.  Subject to the following provisions of this Schedule, the undertaker must repay to a public utility all expenses reasonably incurred by that public utility in, or in connection with, the inspection, removal, alteration or protection of any apparatus or the construction of any necessary alternative apparatus (including any costs reasonably incurred in connection with the acquisition of rights) and in watching and inspecting the execution of works and in making reasonable requirements under paragraph 22.

29.  The value of any apparatus removed under the provisions of this Schedule is to be deducted from any sum payable under paragraph 28, that value being calculated after removal.

30.  If in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule—

(a)necessary alternative apparatus of better type, of greater capacity or of greater dimensions is placed in substitution for existing apparatus of worse type, of smaller capacity or of smaller dimensions, except where this has been solely due to using the nearest currently available type that is suitable for the purpose required; or

(b)apparatus (whether existing apparatus or necessary alternative apparatus) is placed at a depth greater than the depth at which the existing apparatus was situated,

and the placing of apparatus of that type or capacity or of those dimensions or the placing of apparatus at that depth, as the case may be, is not agreed by the undertaker or, in default of agreement, is not determined by arbitration to be necessary, then, if such placing involves cost in the construction of works under this Schedule exceeding that which would have been involved if the apparatus placed had been of the existing type, capacity or dimensions, or at the existing depth, as the case may be, the amount which apart from this paragraph would be payable to the public utility under paragraph 28 is to be reduced by the amount of that excess.

31.  For the purposes of paragraph 30—

(a)an extension of apparatus to a length greater than the length of existing apparatus is not to be treated as a placing of apparatus of greater dimensions than those of the existing apparatus except in a case where the apparatus as so extended serves a purpose (either additional to or instead of that served by the existing apparatus) which was not served by the existing apparatus; and

(b)where the provision of a joint in a pipe or cable is agreed, or is determined to be necessary, the consequential provision of a jointing chamber or of a manhole is to be treated as if it also had been agreed or had been so determined.

32.  An amount which apart from this paragraph would be payable to a public utility under paragraph 28 must, if the works include the placing of apparatus provided in substitution for apparatus placed more than 7 years and 6 months earlier so as to confer on the public utility any financial benefit by deferment of the time for renewal of the apparatus in the ordinary course, be reduced by the amount which represents that benefit as calculated in accordance with the Code of Practice entitled “Measures Necessary where Apparatus is Affected by Major Works (Diversionary Works)” and dated June 1992 and approved by the Secretary of State on 30th June 1992, as revised and reissued from time to time.

33.  In any case where work is carried out by the undertaker under paragraphs 14 to 16 and, if such work had been carried out by the public utility, the repayment made to the public utility under paragraph 28 would fall to be reduced under paragraphs 30 to 32, the public utility must give credit to the undertaker for such sum as represents the amount of that reduction.

Indemnity

34.  If by reason or in consequence of the construction of the specified works, any damage is caused to any apparatus or necessary alternative apparatus (other than apparatus the repair of which is not reasonably necessary in view of its intended removal for the purposes of those works) or there is any interruption in any service provided or of any access to any apparatus, or in the supply of any goods, by any public utility, the undertaker must—

(a)bear and pay the cost reasonably incurred by that public utility in making good such damage or restoring the supply; and

(b)make reasonable compensation to that public utility for any other expenses, loss, damages, penalty or costs incurred by it,

by reason or in consequence of any such damage or interruption.

35.  The fact that any act or thing may have been done by a public utility on behalf of the undertaker or in accordance with a plan approved by a public utility or in accordance with any requirement of a public utility or under its supervision does not, subject to paragraph 36, excuse the undertaker from liability under the provisions of paragraph 34.

36.  Nothing in paragraph 34 imposes any liability on the undertaker with respect to any damage or interruption to the extent that it is attributable to the act, neglect or default of a public utility, its officers, servants, contractors or agents.

37.  A public utility must give the undertaker reasonable notice of any such claim or demand and no settlement or compromise is to be made without the consent of the undertaker, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Co-operation

38.  Where in consequence of the proposed construction of any of the specified works, the undertaker or a public utility requires the removal of apparatus under paragraph 8 or a public utility makes requirements for the protection or alteration of apparatus under paragraph 23, the undertaker must use its best endeavours to co-ordinate the execution of the works in the interests of safety and the efficient and economic execution of the authorised works and each public utility must use its best endeavours to co-operate with the undertaker for that purpose.

Access

39.  If in consequence of the powers conferred by this Order, the access to any apparatus is materially obstructed, the undertaker must provide such alternative means of access to such apparatus as will enable the public utility to maintain or use the apparatus no less effectively than was possible before such obstruction.

2.—(1) The undertaker must not under the powers conferred by this Order acquire compulsorily any land of the authority or any easement or other right over such land, other than such land or easements or other rights over such land as is reasonably necessary for, or in connection with, the construction, maintenance or operation of the authorised works, without the consent of the authority (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and where possession of land is taken on a temporary basis the undertaker must take possession of such land for the shortest period as is reasonably required for the purposes of undertaking specified work.

(2) The charges over the land, property or undertaking of MSCC imposed under the Ship Canal enactments do not apply to any land or interest in land transferred, leased or granted to the undertaker by MSCC whether that transfer is by agreement or compulsorily under the powers conferred by this Order.

3.  Where reasonably required to do so by the engineer or the harbour master for the purpose of ensuring the safety of the Canal the undertaker must, to the reasonable satisfaction of the engineer or harbour master, fence off any specified work or protective work or take such steps as the engineer or the harbour master may reasonably require to be taken for the purpose of separating a specified work or a protective work from the Canal, whether on a temporary or permanent basis or both.

4.—(1) The undertaker, before commencing construction of any specified work, including any temporary works, must supply to the authority proper and sufficient plans of that work and must not commence the construction of any specified work except in accordance with such plans as have been approved or deemed to have been approved by the engineer or settled by arbitration.

(2) The approval of the engineer under sub-paragraph (1) must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and if within 42 days after such plans (including any other particulars reasonably required under sub-paragraph (1)) have been supplied to the authority the engineer has not intimated disapproval of those plans and the grounds of disapproval the engineer is deemed to have approved the plans as submitted.

(3) When signifying approval of the plans the engineer may specify—

(a)any protective work to be carried out before the commencement of a specified work (whether temporary or permanent) that may be reasonably required to prevent detriment; and

(b)such other requirements as may be reasonably necessary to prevent detriment, but not involving alteration to the design of the specified work,

and such protective work must be constructed by the undertaker or (if the undertaker so elects) the authority without unnecessary delay and the undertaker must not commence the construction of any specified work until the engineer has notified the undertaker that the protective work has been completed to the engineer’s reasonable satisfaction.

(4) The approval of the engineer under sub-paragraph (3) must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and if by the end of the period of 14 days beginning with the date on which the engineer is notified of the completion of such protective work the engineer has not intimated disapproval and the grounds of disapproval the engineer is deemed to have approved the protective work.

(5) The authority must at all times afford reasonable facilities to the undertaker and its agents for access to any protective works carried out by the authority under this paragraph during their construction and must supply the undertaker with such information as it may reasonably require with regard to such protective works or the method of constructing them.

5.  The undertaker must not impede, obstruct or interfere with, as far as reasonably practicable, the free and uninterrupted and safe use of the Canal or the vessels on the Canal except to the extent that the obstruction or interference has otherwise been agreed by the authority.

6.  The undertaker must provide and maintain at its own expense in the vicinity of any specified work or protective work such temporary lighting from sunset to sunrise or other periods of adverse visibility and such signal lights for the control of navigation as the harbour master may reasonably require during the construction or failure of the specified work or protective work.

7.—(1) Any specified work must, when commenced, be constructed—

(a)without unnecessary delay in accordance with the plans approved or deemed to have been approved or settled by arbitration under article 53 (arbitration) and in accordance with any requirements made under paragraph 4(3)(b);

(b)under the supervision (if given), and, in the case of any specified work which directly and physically affects the Canal, to the reasonable satisfaction of the engineer;

(c)in such a manner as to cause as little detriment as is reasonably practicable to the Canal;

(d)in such a manner as to cause no detriment to the walls or banks of the Canal;

(e)so far as is reasonably practicable, so as not to interfere with, delay or obstruct the safe passage of vessels using the Canal except to the extent that such interference, delay or obstruction has otherwise been agreed by the authority; and

(f)in such a manner as to cause as little inconvenience as is reasonably practicable to the authority, its officers and agents.

(2) Nothing in this Order authorises the undertaker to—

(a)make or maintain any permanent works in or over the Canal so as to impede or prevent (whether by reducing the headroom or depth of water available for vessels, or the width of the Canal or otherwise) the passage of any vessel along the Canal, and in this regard the minimum permanent vertical clearance over the Bridgewater Canal must be maintained at all times at 28.860 metres above Ordnance Datum and the existing permanent width of the Bridgewater Canal where it is crossed by the specified works must be maintained at all times at 15.24 metres; or

(b)construct or maintain any specified work or protective work which would result in the weight limit of the Canal wall being exceeded; or

(c)use the Canal wall as a load bearing wall or structure for any specified work or protective work,

except to the extent that such interference, delay or obstruction has otherwise been agreed by the authority.

(3) Nothing in this Order authorises the undertaker to construct any specified work or make or maintain any permanent works in the Canal which would impede the free-flow of water in the Canal.

(4) Following the completion of the construction of any specified work the undertaker must restore the Canal to a condition no less satisfactory than its condition immediately prior to the commencement of those works subject to the presence of the authorised works.

(5) Where the carrying out of any of the specified works or any protective works requires the temporary closure of the Bridgewater Canal then the undertaker must notify the authority as soon as it becomes aware of the potential need for the closure of the Canal and—

(a)where the proposed closure will be for a period which is longer than 48 hours such works may only be undertaken between the months of November in one year and February in the following year (inclusive); and

(b)where the proposed closure will be for a period of up to 48 hours such works must be undertaken at such time or times as may be specified by the authority (acting reasonably).

(6) Nothing in this Order authorises the temporary closure of the Canal except with the consent of the authority, but such consent must not be unreasonably withheld and may be given subject to such terms and conditions as the authority may reasonably require.

8.—(1) The undertaker must not in the course of constructing any specified work or protective work or otherwise in connection with such works do or permit anything which may result in the deposit of any polluting materials on, in or over the Canal and must take such steps as the engineer or the harbour master may reasonably require to avoid or make good any breach of its obligations under this paragraph.

(2) Nothing in article 21 (discharge of water) authorises the undertaker to discharge (directly or indirectly) surface drainage water into the Canal except that with the written consent of the authority the undertaker may discharge water directly into the Canal.

(3) The undertaker must not in the course of constructing any specified work or protective work or otherwise in connection with such works do or permit anything which may result in the deposit of any other materials in the Canal and must take such steps as the engineer or the harbour master may reasonably require to avoid or make good any breach of its obligations under this paragraph except that with the written consent of the authority the undertaker may deposit any other materials into the Canal.

(4) Any consent of the authority required under this paragraph must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and may be given subject to such terms and conditions as the authority may reasonably require.

9.—(1) The undertaker must at all reasonable times on being given reasonable notice (except in cases of emergency) allow reasonable facilities to the engineer for access to inspect any specified work during its construction.

(2) The undertaker must supply the engineer with all such information as the engineer may reasonably require with regard to any specified work or the method of constructing it.

(3) Any work involving the use of oxy-fuelled gas cutting equipment or equipment of a similar nature may only be carried out within 30 metres of the Canal with the consent of the harbour master (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and in accordance with the reasonable requirements of the harbour master.

10.—(1) If any reasonable alterations or additions, either permanent or temporary, to the Canal are necessary in consequence of the construction of the specified work in order to avoid detriment the authority may carry out such alterations or additions instead of the undertaker subject to giving the undertaker at least 28 days’ notice of its intention to carry out such alterations or additions (the details of which must be specified in the notice).

(2) If the undertaker has given notice under sub-paragraph (1) but does not carry out such alterations or additions within 2 months of giving that notice, the authority may give to the undertaker not less than 2 months’ notice of its intention to carry out the alterations or additions itself.

(3) Where the authority carries out any alterations or additions to which this paragraph applies, whether in accordance with a notice under sub-paragraph (1) or sub-paragraph (2), the undertaker must pay to the authority, provided that 28 days’ notice has been given to the undertaker, the cost of those alterations or additions reasonably incurred including, in respect of permanent alterations and additions, a capitalised sum representing the increase of the costs which may be expected to be reasonably incurred by the authority in maintaining, working and, when necessary, renewing any such alterations or additions.

(4) If the cost of maintaining, working or renewing the Canal is reduced as a consequence of any alterations or additions to which this paragraph applies a capitalised sum representing such saving must be set off against any sum payable by the undertaker to the authority under sub-paragraph (3).

11.—(1) The undertaker must, upon completion of any part of a specified work and after the purpose of any temporary works has been accomplished, remove as soon as practicable any temporary works constructed and materials for temporary works placed in, on or over the Canal in connection with that part of the specified work.

(2) All temporary works must be removed to the reasonable satisfaction of the engineer and in such a way as causes as little detriment or interference as reasonably practicable with, or delay or interruption to, the safe passage of vessels along the Canal.

(3) In the event of any detriment to the Canal or interference with, or delay or interruption to, any vessels on the Canal that is caused by the undertaker’s failure to remove any such temporary works, the undertaker must immediately make good such damage and pay to the authority the costs and expenses to which it may be put and the compensation for any loss which it may suffer by reason of such detriment, interference, delay or interruption.

(4) In the event of the undertaker failing to remove the temporary works within a reasonable period after receiving notice from the authority, the authority may remove those works and charge the undertaker with the reasonable costs and expenses reasonably incurred as a result.

12.—(1) The undertaker must, before placing any temporary structure or apparatus over the Canal required in connection with the maintenance or repair or renewal of a specified work, comply with the reasonable requirements of the authority, such requirements to include—

(a)the undertaker providing the authority with 42 days’ written notice of this requirement so that, in particular, the authority may bring these works to the attention of users of the Canal; and

(b)receiving approval from the harbour master, but such approval must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed

(2) In the case of repair work carried out in an emergency the undertaker is only required to give such notice to the harbour master as may be reasonably practicable in the circumstances.

13.  If at any time after the completion of a specified work, not being a work vested in the authority, the authority gives notice to the undertaker informing it that the state of maintenance of the specified work appears to be such that the specified work is causing or is likely to cause detriment, the undertaker must, on receipt of such notice, take such steps as may be reasonably necessary to put the specified work in such state of maintenance as not to cause such detriment and if the undertaker fails to do so, the authority may make and do in and upon the land of the undertaker or the authority all such works to put the specified work in such state of maintenance as before and the cost, expenses and losses incurred by the authority in so doing must be repaid to the authority by the undertaker.

14.  Any reasonable and proper additional expenses not otherwise provided for in this Schedule which the authority may incur in maintaining the Canal under any powers existing at the making of this Order by reason of the existence of a specified work must, provided that 42 days’ notice of the commencement of such maintenance has been given to the undertaker, be repaid by the undertaker to the authority so as to ensure that the authority has been reimbursed for all and any greater maintenance liability it incurs by reason of the existence of a specified work.

15.  Before providing any illumination or illuminated traffic sign on or in connection with the specified work or in the vicinity of the Canal, the undertaker must consult with the authority and comply with the authority’s reasonable requirements in regard to such lighting with a view to ensuring that—

(a)appropriate navigation lighting is placed on the specified works and on any protective works; and

(b)any illuminations will not be directed upstream or downstream into the path of oncoming vessels on the Canal to ensure that such illumination or illuminated signs cannot be confused with any lights or lighting used for controlling, directing or securing the safety of vessels on the Canal.

16.—(1) If any canal work is abandoned, and is in such a condition that it is, or is likely to become, a danger to or to interfere with navigation, the authority may by notice in writing require the undertaker to take such reasonable steps as may be specified in the notice to remove the work and (to such extent as the authority reasonably requires) to restore the site to its former condition.

(2) If any canal work is in such condition that it is, or is likely to become, a danger to or to interfere with navigation, the authority may by notice in writing require the undertaker to take such reasonable steps as may be specified in the notice—

(a)to repair and restore the work or part of it; or

(b)if the undertaker so elects, to remove the work and (to such extent as the authority reasonably requires) to restore the site to its former condition.

(3) If—

(a)a work which consists of a canal work and a non-canal work is abandoned or falls into decay; and

(b)the non-canal work is in such a condition as to interfere with the right of navigation in the Canal or as to interfere with the rights of access or use of land adjacent to the Canal,

the authority may include the non-canal work, or any part of it, in any notice under this paragraph.

(4) If after such reasonable period as may be specified in a notice under this paragraph the undertaker has failed to begin taking steps to comply with the requirements of the notice or after beginning has failed to make reasonably expeditious progress towards their implementation, the authority may carry out the works specified in the notice and any costs incurred by the authority in so doing are recoverable from the undertaker.

(5) In this paragraph “canal work” means so much of any specified work as is in or over the Canal and “non-canal work” means so much of any specified work as is not in or over the Canal.

17.  The undertaker must repay to the authority all costs, charges and expenses reasonably and properly incurred by the authority—

(a)in constructing any protective work under the provisions of paragraph 4(3)(a) including, in respect of any permanent protective work, a capitalised sum representing the cost of maintaining and renewing those works having set off the amount by which the presence of those works reduces the cost of maintaining and renewing the Canal;

(b)in respect of the employment of any inspectors, watch-guards and other persons whom it is reasonably necessary to appoint for inspecting, watching and lighting any part of the Canal affected by any specified work or protective work and for preventing as far as may be practicable all interference, obstruction, danger or accident arising from the construction, maintenance, renewal, repair or failure of the specified work or any protective work;

(c)in respect of any special navigation or traffic procedures resulting from any restrictions which are necessary as a result of the construction, maintenance, renewal, repair or failure of the specified work and which may in the reasonable opinion of the engineer or harbour master be required to be imposed, or from the suspension of navigation or traffic which may be necessary for the same reasons;

(d)in respect of the approval by the engineer of plans submitted by the undertaker and the supervision by the engineer of any specified work or any protective work; and

(e)in bringing the specified work or any protective work to the notice of users of the Canal.

18.—(1) If any detriment to the Canal or any interference with, or delay or obstruction to, any vessels on the Canal is caused by, or arises as a result of, the construction or failure of any specified work or protective work if carried out by the undertaker, the undertaker or (if the authority so elects) the authority, but at the undertaker’s expense, must immediately make good such detriment and the undertaker must on demand pay to the authority all reasonable expenses to which the authority may be put, and compensation for any loss which the authority may sustain, in making good or otherwise by reason of any such detriment, interference, delay or obstruction.

(2) The undertaker is responsible for and must make good to the authority all claims, demands, proceedings, costs, charges, damages, expenses and losses not otherwise provided for in this Schedule which may be occasioned to or reasonably incurred by the authority—

(a)by reason of the construction or failure of any specified work or a protective work (for the avoidance of doubt the indemnity is to include liability resulting from damage caused to the Canal by vibration caused by the use of the specified works); or

(b)by reason of any act or omission of the undertaker or of any person in its employ or of its contractors or others whilst engaged upon the construction of any specified work or of a protective work,

and subject to sub-paragraphs (3) and (4) the undertaker must effectively indemnify and hold harmless the authority from and against all charges, claims, demands, expenses and liabilities arising out of any of the matters referred to in sub-paragraphs (a) and (b).

(3) Nothing in this paragraph imposes any liability on the undertaker with respect to any losses, costs, charges, damages, expenses, claims or demand referred to in sub-paragraph (2) to the extent that they are attributable to negligence on the part of the authority or of any person in the authority’s employ or the authority’s contractors or agents.

(4) Except to the extent provided by sub-paragraph (3), the fact that any act or thing may have been done by the authority on behalf of the undertaker or in accordance with any requirements of the engineer or in accordance with plans approved by the engineer or under the engineer’s supervision or awards of an arbitrator does not (if it was done without negligence on the part of the authority or any person in its employ or its contractor or agents) excuse the undertaker from any liability under the provisions of this paragraph.

(5) The authority must give to the undertaker reasonable notice of any such claim or demand and no settlement or compromise of any such claim or demand is to be made without the prior consent in writing of the undertaker (which must not be unreasonably withheld) which, if it notifies the authority that it desires to do so, is to have the sole conduct of any settlement or compromise or of any proceedings necessary to resist the claim or demand provided that no settlement or compromise of any such claim or demand is to be made without the consent of the authority (which must not be unreasonably withheld). If consent is not given by the undertaker, the authority must diligently defend such claim or demand.

19.  Where under any provision of this Schedule the authority or the undertaker (as the case may be) is entitled to a capitalised sum, it must provide such details of the formula by which the sum is calculated as may reasonably be requested by the party required to pay the sum.

20.  Except as provided by this Order, nothing in this Order prejudices or derogates from the estates, rights, interests, privileges, liberties or franchises of the authority or alters or diminishes any power, authority or jurisdiction vested in the authority at the making of this Order and, in particular, nothing is to be done under this Order that causes the authority or the harbour master to be in breach of their statutory duties and responsibilities.

21.  Any differences arising between the undertaker and the authority under this Schedule (other than a difference as to the meaning or construction of this Schedule) is to be referred to and settled by arbitration in accordance with article 53 (arbitration).
