Acquisition of land required for the further development or extension of the authorised tramway and Line One
86. Without limiting the scope of the promoter’s power to acquire land by agreement under section 120 of the Local Government Act 1972(1) and section 26 of the Land Compensation Act 1973(2), the promoter may acquire by agreement any land in its area which, in its opinion—
(a)is likely to be required for the further development or extension of the authorised tramway and Line One; or
(b)by reason of published proposals indicating that it might be so required, is a hereditament in respect of which a valid blight notice could have been served on the promoter under section 150 or 161 of the 1990 Act if it were land of the description specified in paragraph 21 of Schedule 13 to that Act.
