Application of Part 1 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965 23 1 Part 1 of the 1965 Act, in so far as not modified by or inconsistent with the provisions of this Order, shall apply to the acquisition of land under this Order— a as it applies to a compulsory purchase to which the Acquisition of Land Act 1981 applies; and b as if this Order were a compulsory purchase order under that Act. 2 Part 1 of the 1965 Act, as so applied, shall have effect as if section 4 (which provides a time limit for compulsory purchase of land) and paragraph 3(3) of Schedule 3 (which makes provision as to the giving of bonds) were omitted. Application of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 24 1 The Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 shall apply as if this Order were a compulsory purchase order. 2 The Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981, as so applied by paragraph (1), shall have effect with the following modifications. 3 In section 3 (preliminary notices) for subsection (1) there shall be substituted— 1 Before making a declaration under section 4 with respect to any land which is subject to a compulsory purchase order the acquiring authority shall include the particulars specified in subsection (3) in a notice which is— a given to every person with a relevant interest in the land with respect to which the declaration is to be made (other than a mortgagee who is not in possession); and b published in a local newspaper circulating in the area in which the land is situated. . 4 In that section, in subsection (2), for “(l)(b)” there shall be substituted “(1)” and after “given” there shall be inserted “and published”. 5 In that section, for subsections (5) and (6) there shall be substituted— 5 For the purposes of this section, a person has a relevant interest in land if— a he is for the time being entitled to dispose of the fee simple of the land, whether in possession or in reversion; or b he holds, or is entitled to the rents and profits of, the land under a lease or agreement, the unexpired term of which exceeds one month. . 6 In section 5 (earliest date for execution of declaration)— a in subsection (1), after “publication” there shall be inserted “in a local newspaper circulating in the area in which the land is situated”; and b subsection (2) shall be omitted. 7 In section 7 (constructive notice to treat) in subsection (l)(a), the words “(as modified by section 4 of the Acquisition of Land Act 1981)” shall be omitted. 8 References to the 1965 Act shall be construed as references to that Act as applied to the acquisition of land under article 22 (power to acquire land). Power to acquire new rights 25 1 The undertaker may acquire compulsorily such easements or other rights over any land referred to in paragraph (l) of article 22 (power to acquire land) as may be required for any purpose for which that land may be acquired under that provision, by creating them as well as by acquiring easements or other rights already in existence. 2 Subject to section 8 of the 1965 Act (as substituted by paragraph 5 of Schedule 6 (modification of compensation and compulsory purchase enactments for creation of new rights)) where the undertaker acquires a right over land under paragraph (1) the undertaker shall not be required to acquire a greater interest in that land. 3 Schedule 6 (modification of compensation and compulsory purchase enactments for creation of new rights) shall have effect for the purpose of modifying the enactments relating to compensation and the provisions of the 1965 Act in their application in relation to the compulsory acquisition under this article of a right over land by the creation of a new right. Rights under or over streets 26 1 The undertaker may enter upon and appropriate so much of the subsoil of, or air-space over, any street within the Order limits as may be required for the purposes of the authorised works and may use the subsoil or air-space for those purposes or any other purpose ancillary to its 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, shall be entitled to compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, under Part 1 of the 1961 Act. 4 Paragraph (2) shall not apply in relation to— a any subway or underground building; or b any cellar, vault, arch or other construction in, on or under a street which forms part of a building fronting onto the street. 5 Compensation shall not be payable under paragraph (3) to any person who is an undertaker to whom section 85 of the 1991 Act applies in respect of measures of which the allowable costs are to be borne in accordance with that section. Temporary possession of land Temporary use of land for construction of works 27 1 The undertaker may, in connection with the carrying out of the authorised works— a enter upon and take temporary possession of the land specified in columns (1) and (2) of Schedule 8 (land of which temporary possession may be taken) for the purpose specified in relation to that land in column (3) of that Schedule relating to the authorised works so specified in column (4) of that Schedule; b remove any buildings and vegetation from that land; c construct temporary works (including the provision of means of access) and buildings on that land; and d use the land for the purposes of a working site with access to the working site for construction purposes in connection with the authorised works. 2 Not less than 14 days before entering upon and taking temporary possession of land under this article the undertaker shall serve notice of the intended entry on the owners and occupiers of the land. 3 The undertaker may not, without the agreement of the owners of the land, remain in possession of any land under this article after the end of the period of one year beginning with the date of completion of the work specified in relation to that land in column (4) of Schedule 8 (land of which temporary possession may be taken). 4 Before giving up possession of land of which temporary possession has been taken under this article, the undertaker shall remove all temporary works and restore the land to the reasonable satisfaction of the owners of the land; but the undertaker shall not be required to replace a building removed under this article. 5 The undertaker shall pay compensation to the owners and occupiers of land of which temporary possession is taken under this article for any loss or damage arising from the exercise in relation to the land of the powers conferred by this article. 6 Any dispute as to a person’s entitlement to compensation under paragraph (5), or as to the amount of the compensation, shall be determined under Part 1 of the 1961 Act. 7 Without prejudice to article 51 (no double recovery), nothing in this article shall affect any liability to pay compensation under section 10(2) of the 1965 Act or under any other enactment in respect of loss or damage arising from the execution of any works, other than loss or damage for which compensation is payable under paragraph (5). 8 The powers of compulsory acquisition of land conferred by this Order shall not apply in relation to the land referred to in paragraph (1) except that the undertaker shall not be precluded from acquiring new rights over any part of that land under article 25 (power to acquire new rights). 9 Where the undertaker takes possession of land under this article, it shall not be required to acquire the land or any interest in it. 10 Section 13 of the 1965 Act shall apply to the temporary use of land pursuant to this article to the same extent as it applies to the acquisition of land under this Order by virtue of article 23(1) (application of Part 1 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965). Temporary use of land for maintenance of works 28 1 Subject to paragraph (2), at any time during the maintenance period relating to any of the scheduled works, the undertaker may— a enter upon and take temporary possession of any land within the Order limits if such possession is reasonably required for the purpose of maintaining the work or any ancillary works connected with it; and b construct such temporary works (including the provision of means of access) and buildings on the land as may be reasonably necessary for that purpose. 2 Paragraph (1) shall not authorise the undertaker to take temporary possession of— a any house or garden belonging to a house; or b any building (other than a house) if it is for the time being occupied. 3 Not less than 28 days before entering upon and taking temporary possession of land under this article the undertaker shall serve notice of the intended entry on the owners and occupiers of the land. 4 The undertaker may only remain in possession of land under this article for so long as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the maintenance of works for which possession of the land was taken. 5 Before giving up possession of land of which temporary possession has been taken under this article, the undertaker shall remove all temporary works and restore the land to the reasonable satisfaction of the owners of the land. 6 The undertaker shall pay compensation to the owners and occupiers of land of which temporary possession is taken under this article for any loss or damage arising from the exercise in relation to the land of the powers conferred by this article. 7 Any dispute as to a person’s entitlement to compensation under paragraph (6), or as to the amount of the compensation, shall be determined under Part 1 of the 1961 Act. 8 Without prejudice to article 51 (no double recovery), nothing in this article shall affect any liability to pay compensation under section 10(2) of the 1965 Act or under any other enactment in respect of loss or damage arising from the execution of any works, other than loss or damage for which compensation is payable under paragraph (6). 9 Where the undertaker takes possession of land under this article, it shall not be required to acquire the land or any interest in it. 10 Section 13 of the 1965 Act shall apply to the temporary use of land pursuant to this article to the same extent as it applies to the acquisition of land under this Order by virtue of article 23(1) (application of Part 1 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965). 11 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 use. Compensation Disregard of certain interests and improvements 29 1 In assessing the compensation payable to any person on the acquisition from him of any land under this Order, the tribunal shall 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 he 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 30 1 In assessing the compensation payable to any person in respect of the acquisition from him under this Order of any land (including the subsoil) the tribunal shall 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 him by reason of the construction of the authorised works. 2 In assessing the compensation payable to any person in respect of the acquisition from him of any new rights over land (including the subsoil) under article 25 (power to acquire new rights), the tribunal shall 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 required; and b any increase in value of any contiguous or adjacent land belonging to that person in the same capacity, which will accrue to him by reason of the construction of the authorised works. 3 The 1961 Act shall have 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 31 1 This article shall apply instead of section 8(1) of the 1965 Act (as applied by article 23 (application of Part 1 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965)) 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 only part of a house, building or manufactory or 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 he 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 shall be required to sell the land subject to the notice to treat. 4 If such a counter-notice is served within that period, the question whether the owner shall be required to sell only the land subject to the notice to treat shall, unless the undertaker agrees to take the land subject to the counter-notice, be referred to the tribunal. 5 If on such a reference the tribunal determine 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 in the case of part of the 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 shall be required to sell the land subject to the notice to treat. 6 If on such a reference the tribunal determine 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 in the case of 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 shall be deemed to be a notice to treat for that part. 7 If on such a reference the tribunal determine 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 shall be 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 determine 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 shall be 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 shall pay the owner compensation for any loss or expense occasioned to him 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 only part of a house, building or manufactory or of land consisting of a house with a park or garden, the undertaker shall pay him compensation for any loss sustained by him due to the severance of that part in addition to the value of the interest acquired. Extinction or suspension of private rights of way 32 1 All private rights of way over land subject to compulsory acquisition under this Order shall be extinguished— a as from the date of acquisition of the land by the undertaker, whether compulsorily or by agreement; or b on the date of entry on the land by the undertaker under section 11(1) of the 1965 Act, whichever is the sooner. 2 All private rights of way over land owned by the undertaker which, being within the limits of land which may be acquired shown on the works and land plans, are required for the purposes of this Order shall be extinguished on the appropriation of the land for any of those purposes by the undertaker. 3 All private rights of way over land of which the undertaker takes temporary possession under this Order shall be suspended and unenforceable for as long as the undertaker remains in lawful possession of the land. 4 Any person who suffers loss by the extinguishment or suspension of any private right of way under this article shall be entitled to compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, under Part 1 of the 1961 Act. 5 This article does not apply in relation to any right of way to which section 271 or 272 of the 1990 Act (extinguishment of rights of statutory undertakers, etc.) or paragraph 2 of Schedule 9 (provisions relating to statutory undertakers, etc.) applies. Time limit for exercise of powers of acquisition 33 1 After the end of the period of 5 years beginning with the day on which this Order comes into force— a no notice to treat shall be served under Part 1 of the 1965 Act as applied to the acquisition of land by article 23 (application of Part 1 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965); and b no declaration shall be executed under section 4 of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 as applied by article 24 (application of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981). 2 The powers conferred by article 27 (temporary use of land for construction of works) shall cease at the end of the period referred to in paragraph (1), save that nothing in this paragraph shall prevent the undertaker remaining in possession of land after the end of that period, if the land was entered and possession of it was taken before the end of that period. PART 4 MISCELLANEOUS AND GENERAL Planning permission and supplementary matters 34 1 In relation to the application of paragraph 3(c) of the Second Schedule of the Form of Tree Preservation Order set out in the Schedule to the Town and Country Planning (Tree Preservation Order) Regulations 1969 (including that paragraph as applied by regulation 3(ii) of the Town and Country Planning (Tree Preservation Order) (Amendment) and (Trees in Conservation Areas) (Exempted Cases) Regulations 1975 , or as incorporated in any tree preservation order), any direction under section 90(2A) of the 1990 Act deeming planning permission to be granted in relation to works authorised by this Order shall be treated as deeming the permission to have been granted on application made under Part 3 of that Act for the purposes of that Part. 2 In relation to the application of article 5(1)(d) of the Form of Tree Preservation Order set out in the Schedule to the Town and Country Planning (Trees) Regulations 1999 as incorporated in any tree preservation order or as having effect by virtue of regulation 10(l)(a) of those Regulations, any direction under section 90(2A) of the 1990 Act deeming planning permission to be granted in relation to works authorised by this Order shall not be treated as an outline planning permission. 3 Planning permission which is deemed by a direction under section 90(2A) of the 1990 Act to be granted in relation to works authorised by this Order shall be treated as specific planning permission for the purposes of section 264(3)(a) of that Act (cases in which land is to be treated as operational land for the purposes of that Act). Power to lop trees overhanging the authorised works 35 1 The undertaker may fell or lop any tree or shrub near any part of the authorised works, or cut back its roots, if it reasonably believes it to be necessary to do so to prevent the tree or shrub— a from obstructing or interfering with the construction, maintenance or operation of the authorised works or any apparatus used on the authorised works; or b from constituting a danger to passengers or other persons using the authorised works. 2 In exercising the powers of paragraph (1), the undertaker shall do no unnecessary damage to any tree or shrub and shall pay compensation to any person for any loss or damage arising from the exercise of those powers. 3 Any dispute as to a person’s entitlement to compensation under paragraph (2), or as to the amount of compensation, shall be determined under Part 1 of the 1961 Act. Power to operate and use railway 36 1 The undertaker may operate and use the railway as a system, or part of a system, of transport for the carriage of passengers and goods. 2 The undertaker may permit an operator to operate and use the railway provided that any such operator is a person who has been granted a licence under section 8 of the 1993 Act or is exempted by virtue of section 7 of that Act from being so licensed. 3 Nothing in this Order, or in any enactment incorporated with or applied by this Order, shall prejudice or affect the operation of Part 1 of the 1993 Act. Power to transfer undertaking 37 1 The undertaker may, with the consent of the Secretary of State— a transfer to another person (“the transferee”) its right to construct, maintain, use or operate the authorised works (or any part of them) and such related statutory rights as may be agreed between the undertaker and the transferee; or b grant to another person (“the lessee”) for a period agreed between the undertaker and the lessee the right to construct, maintain, use or operate the authorised works (or any part of them) and such related statutory rights as may be so agreed. 2 Where an agreement has been made by virtue of paragraph (1) references in this Order to the undertaker shall include references to the transferee or the lessee. 3 The exercise of the powers conferred by any enactment by any person in pursuance of any transfer or grant under paragraph (1) shall be subject to the same restrictions, liabilities and obligations as would apply under this Order if those powers were exercised by the undertaker. Power to charge fares 38 1 The undertaker may demand, take and recover or waive such charges for carrying passengers or goods on the railway comprised in the authorised works, or for any other services or facilities provided in connection with the operation of that railway, as it thinks fit. 2 The undertaker may permit an operator to demand, take and recover or waive such charges for carrying passengers or goods on the railway comprised in the authorised works, or for any other services or facilities provided in connection with the operation of that railway, as it thinks fit, provided that any such operator is a person who has been granted a licence under section 8 of the 1993 Act, or is exempted by virtue of section 7 of that Act from being so licensed. Agreements with Network Rail 39 1 Without prejudice to article 37 (power to transfer undertaking), the undertaker and Network Rail may enter into and carry into effect agreements with respect to the construction, maintenance, use and operation of— a any of the authorised works, or any part of those works; and b any works required for the purposes of or in connection with the authorised works; by Network Rail or by the undertaker, or by the undertaker and Network Rail jointly. 2 Any agreement made pursuant to the powers conferred by this article may contain such incidental, consequential or supplementary provisions as may be so agreed, including (but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) provisions— a with respect to the defraying of, or the making of contributions towards the costs of such construction, maintenance, use and operation as are referred to in paragraph (1) by the undertaker or by Network Rail or by the undertaker and Network Rail jointly; and b for the exercise by Network Rail, or by the undertaker, or by Network Rail and the undertaker jointly, of all or any of the powers and rights of Network Rail and the undertaker (as the case may be) in respect of any of the authorised works and any works required for the purposes of or in connection with such works. 3 The exercise by the undertaker or Network Rail or the undertaker and Network Rail jointly, of any powers and rights under any enactment or contract pursuant to any such agreement as is authorised by paragraph (1) shall be subject to all statutory and contractual provisions relating thereto as would apply if such powers and rights were exercised by the undertaker or Network Rail (as the case may be) alone, and accordingly such provisions shall, with any necessary modifications, apply to the exercise of such powers and rights by the undertaker or Network Rail, or by the undertaker and Network Rail jointly, as the case may be. 4 The undertaker and Network Rail may enter into, and carry into effect, agreements for the transfer to and vesting in Network Rail or the undertaker, or the undertaker and Network Rail jointly, of— a any of the authorised works or any part of any of those works; or b any works, lands or other property required for the purposes of the authorised works or in connection with such works, together with any rights and obligations (whether or not statutory) of Network Rail or the undertaker relating thereto. Proceedings in respect of statutory nuisance 40 1 Where proceedings are brought under section 82(1) of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 (summary proceedings by person aggrieved by statutory nuisance) in relation to a nuisance falling within paragraph (g) of section 79(1) of that Act (noise emitted from premises so as to be prejudicial to health or a nuisance) no order shall be made, and no fine may be imposed, under section 82(2) of that Act if the defendant shows— a that the nuisance relates to premises used by the undertaker for the purposes of or in connection with the exercise of the powers conferred by this Order with respect to the construction or maintenance of the authorised works and that the nuisance is attributable to the carrying out of works which are being carried out in accordance with a notice served under section 60, or a consent given under section 61 or 65 of the Control of Pollution Act 1974 ; or b that the nuisance is a consequence of the construction, maintenance or use of the authorised works and that it cannot reasonably be avoided. 2 The following provisions of the Control of Pollution Act 1974, namely— a section 61(9) (consent for work on construction site to include statement that it does not of itself constitute a defence to proceedings under section 82 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990); and b section 65(8) (corresponding provision in relation to consent for registered noise level to be exceeded), shall not apply where the consent relates to the use of premises by the undertaker for the purposes of or in connection with the exercise of the powers conferred by this Order with respect to construction or maintenance of the authorised works. Application of landlord and tenant law 41 1 This article applies to— a any agreement for leasing to any person the whole or any part of the authorised works or the right to operate the same; and b any agreement entered into by the undertaker with any person for the construction, maintenance, use or operation of the authorised works, or any part of them, so far as any such agreement relates to the terms on which any land which is the subject of a lease granted by or under that agreement is to be provided for that person’s use. 2 No enactment or rule of law regulating the rights and obligations of landlords and tenants shall prejudice the operation of any agreement to which this article applies. 3 Accordingly, no such enactment or rule of law shall apply in relation to the rights and obligations of the parties to any lease granted by or under any such agreement so as to— a exclude or in any respect modify any of the rights and obligations of those parties under the terms of the lease, whether with respect to the termination of the tenancy or any other matter; b confer or impose on any such party any right or obligation arising out of or connected with anything done or omitted on or in relation to land which is the subject of the lease, in addition to any such right or obligation provided for by the terms of the lease; or c restrict the enforcement (whether by action for damages or otherwise) by any party to the lease of any obligation of any other party under the lease. Obstruction of construction of authorised works 42 Any person who, without reasonable excuse— a obstructs any person acting under the authority of the undertaker in setting out the lines of the scheduled works, or in constructing any authorised work; or b interferes with, moves or removes any apparatus belonging to any person acting under the authority of the undertaker, shall be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. Trespass 43 1 Any person who— a trespasses on any part of the railway; or b trespasses on any land of the undertaker in dangerous proximity to the railway or to any electrical or other apparatus used for or in connection with the operation of the railway, shall be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. 2 No person shall be convicted of an offence under this article unless it is shown that a notice warning the public not to trespass on the railway was clearly exhibited and maintained at the station or level crossing on the railway nearest the place where the offence is alleged to have been committed. 3 If the railway or any part of it is transferred to Network Rail under article 39(4) (agreements with Network Rail) this article shall cease to apply to the railway or to the part of it that has been so transferred. 4 In this article “the railway” means the railway forming part of the authorised works. Disclosure of confidential information 44 A person who— a enters a factory, workshop or workplace in pursuance of the provisions of article 20 (protective works to buildings) or article 21 (power to survey and investigate land); and b discloses to any person any information obtained by him relating to any manufacturing process or trade secret, shall be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale unless the disclosure is made in the course of performing his duty in connection with the purposes for which he was authorised to enter the land. Statutory undertakers, etc. 45 The provisions of Schedule 9 (provisions relating to statutory undertakers, etc.) shall have effect. Protective provisions 46 The provisions of Schedule 10 (protective provisions) shall have effect. As to application of certain railway enactments 47 1 Any enactment which authorised any railway or former railway of Network Rail comprised within the designated lands shall have effect subject to the provisions of this Order. 2 Nothing in paragraph (1) shall prejudice any express statutory provision for— a the protection of the owner, lessee or occupier of any property which is specifically designated property in such provision; or b the protection or benefit of any public trustees or commissioners, corporation or other person, specifically named in such provision. 3 In this article “designated lands” means any land which is owned by Network Rail shown on the works and land plans and described in the book of reference.
