Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order authorises the use of T69 vehicles numbers 1 to 16 on Line 1 of the Midland Metro System although they do not conform with the Rail Vehicle Accessibility Regulations 1998 because:

  • some handrails are not fitted at the required height;

  • some handrails are too far apart from one another;

  • not all the required audible and visual announcements are given; and

  • some characters used on visual displays are not the required size.

It sets time limits on the authorisation and imposes conditions.

This Order consolidates and replaces, to the extent that they are not spent, the provisions of:

(1) The Rail Vehicle Accessibility (Midland Metro T69 Vehicles) Exemption Order 1999.

(2) The Rail Vehicle Accessibility (Midland Metro T69 Vehicles) Exemption (Amendment) Order 1999; and

(3) The Rail Vehicle Accessibility (Midland Metro T69 Vehicles) (Exemption No. 2) Order 1999.

The only change of substance is the termination date for one of the exemptions from 31st March 2001 to 30th June 2001.
