Power to execute street works

9.—(1) The promoter may, for the purpose of exercising the powers conferred by article 8 (power to keep apparatus in streets) or any other provision of this Order, enter upon any street in which the transport systems are constructed or which has a junction with such a street and may execute any works required for or incidental to the exercise of those powers including, without limitation on the scope of that power, breaking up or opening the street, or any sewer, drain or tunnel under it, or tunnelling or boring under the street.
