The Removal of Obstructions from Highways (Wales) Regulations 2004

Status:

This is the original version (as it was originally made). Wales Statutory Instruments are not carried in their revised form on this site.

Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations prescribe, in relation to Wales, the form of notices to be served under sections 130A, 130B and 130C of the Highways Act 1980 (“the Act”). These sections were inserted into the Act by section 63 of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000.

The new provisions enable a person, who believes a local highway authority is failing in its duty to prevent a right of way from being obstructed, to ask the authority to secure the removal of the obstruction.

Notices in the form (or in a form substantially to the same effect) prescribed by these Regulations are required to be served when the new provisions are exercised.
