Temporary stopping up of streets 14 1 During and for the purposes of carrying out the authorised development, the undertaker may temporarily stop up, alter or divert any street and may for any reasonable time— a divert the traffic from the street; and b subject to paragraph (2), prevent all persons from passing along the street. 2 The undertaker must provide reasonable access for pedestrians going to or from premises abutting a street affected by the temporary stopping up, alteration or diversion of a street under this article if there would otherwise be no such access. 3 The undertaker must not temporarily stop up, alter or divert any street without the consent of the relevant street authority which may attach reasonable conditions to any consent but such consent must not be unreasonably withheld. 4 Any person who suffers loss by the suspension of any private right of way under this article is entitled to compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, under Part 1 of the 1961 Act. Access 15 The undertaker may, for the purposes of the authorised development and with the agreement of the relevant highway authority (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld), form and lay out such means of access or improve existing means of access, at such locations within the Order limits as the undertaker reasonably requires. Agreements with highway authorities 16 1 A relevant highway authority and the undertaker may enter into agreements with respect to— a the construction of any new street, including any structure carrying the street over or under a railway authorised by this Order; b the strengthening, improvement, repair or reconstruction of any street under the powers conferred by this Order; c the maintenance of the structure of any bridge or tunnel carrying a street over or under a railway; d any stopping up, alteration or diversion of a street as part of or to facilitate the authorised development; or e the carrying out in the street of any of the works referred to in article 11 (street works), prior to the carrying out of the works to which the agreements relate. 2 Such an agreement may, without limitation on the scope of paragraph (1)— a make provision for the relevant highway authority to carry out any function under this Order which relates to the street in question; b include an agreement between the undertaker and the relevant highway authority specifying a reasonable time for the completion of the works; and c contain such terms as to payment and otherwise as the parties consider appropriate. 3 This article does not apply to streets within the main site which are intended to be private streets. PART 4 Supplemental powers Discharge of water 17 1 The undertaker may use any watercourse or any public sewer or drain for the drainage of water in connection with the carrying out or maintenance of the authorised development and for that purpose may lay down, take up and alter pipes and may, on any land within the Order limits, make openings into, and connections with, the watercourse, public sewer or drain. 2 Any dispute arising from the making of connections to, or the use of, a public sewer or drain by the undertaker under paragraph (1) is to be determined as if it were a dispute under section 106 of the Water Industry Act 1991 (right to communicate with public sewers). 3 The undertaker may not discharge any water into any watercourse, public sewer or drain except with the consent of the person to whom it belongs; and such consent may be given subject to such terms and conditions as that person may reasonably impose, but must not be unreasonably withheld. 4 The undertaker must not make any opening into any public sewer or drain except— a in accordance with plans approved by the person to whom the sewer or drain belongs, but such approval must not be unreasonably withheld; and b where that person has been given the opportunity to supervise the making of the opening. 5 The undertaker must not, in carrying out or maintaining works under the powers conferred by this article, damage or interfere with the bed or banks of any watercourse forming part of a main river. 6 The undertaker must take such steps as are reasonably practicable to secure that any water discharged into a watercourse or public sewer or drain under the powers conferred by this article is as free as may be practicable from gravel, soil or other solid substance, oil or matter in suspension. 7 Nothing in this article overrides the requirement for an environmental permit under regulation 12(1)(b) of the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2010 . 8 In this article— a “public sewer or drain” means a sewer or drain which belongs to the Environment Agency, an internal drainage board, a local authority, or a sewerage undertaker; and b other expressions, excluding watercourse, used both in this article and in the Water Resources Act 1991 have the same meaning as in that Act. Authority to survey and investigate the land 18 1 The undertaker may for the purposes of this Order enter on any land shown within the Order limits or which may be affected by the authorised development and— a survey or investigate the land; b without limitation on the scope of sub-paragraph (a), make trial holes in such positions on the land as the undertaker thinks fit to investigate the nature of the surface layer and subsoil and remove soil samples; c without limitation on the scope of sub-paragraph (a), carry out ecological or archaeological investigations on such land; and d place on, leave on and remove from the land apparatus for use in connection with the survey and investigation of land and making of trial holes. 2 No land may be entered or equipment placed or left on or removed from the land under paragraph (1) unless at least 14 days’ notice has been served on every owner, who is not the undertaker, and occupier of the land. 3 Any person entering land under this article on behalf of the undertaker— a must, if so required, produce written evidence of authority to do so; and b may take onto the land such vehicles and equipment as are necessary to carry out the survey or investigation or to make the trial holes. 4 No trial holes are to be made under this article— a in land located within the highway boundary without the consent of the relevant highway authority; or b in a private street without the consent of the relevant street authority, but such consent must not be unreasonably withheld. 5 The undertaker must compensate the owners and occupiers of the land for any loss or damage arising by reason of the exercise of the powers conferred by this article, such compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, under Part 1 of the 1961 Act (determination of questions of disputed compensation). PART 5 Powers of acquisition Compulsory acquisition of rights 19 1 The undertaker may acquire compulsorily the existing rights described in the book of reference and shown on the land plans. 2 Subject to the provisions of this article, all private rights over land subject to the compulsory acquisition of rights under this Order are extinguished in so far as their continuance would be inconsistent with the carrying out and use of the authorised development— a as from the date of the acquisition of the right 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 in pursuance of the right, whichever is the earlier. 3 Where the undertaker acquires an existing right over land under paragraph (1), the undertaker is not required to acquire a greater interest in that land. Time limit for exercise of authority to acquire rights compulsorily 20 After the end of the period of 5 years beginning on the day on which the Order is made— a no notice to treat is to be served under Part 1 of the 1965 Act; and b no declaration may be executed under section 4 of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 as applied by article 21 (application of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981). Application of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 21 1 The Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 applies as if this Order were a compulsory purchase order. 2 The Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981, as so applied, has effect with the following modifications. 3 In section 3 (preliminary notices) for subsection (1) there is 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 must 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 “(1)(b)” there is substituted “(1)” and after “given” there is inserted “and published”. 5 In that section, for subsections (5) and (6) there is substituted— 5 For the purposes of this section, a person has a relevant interest in land if— a that person is for the time being entitled to dispose of the fee simple of the land, whether in possession or in reversion; or b that person 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 is inserted “in a local newspaper circulating in the area in which the land is situated”; and b subsection (2) is omitted. 7 In section 7 (constructive notice to treat), in subsection (1)(a), the words “(as modified by section 4 of the Acquisition of Land Act 1981)” are omitted. 8 References to the 1965 Act in the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 are to be construed as references to that Act as applied by section 125 (application of compulsory acquisition provision) of the 2008 Act to the compulsory acquisition of rights under this Order. Rights under or over streets 22 1 The undertaker may with the agreement of the relevant street authority enter on 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 development and may use the subsoil or air-space for those purposes or any other purpose ancillary to the authorised development. 2 Subject to paragraph (3), the undertaker may exercise any power conferred by paragraph (1) in relation to a street without being required to acquire any part of the street or any easement or right in the street. 3 Paragraph (2) does 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. 4 Subject to paragraph (5), any person who is an owner or occupier of land appropriated under paragraph (1) without the undertaker acquiring any part of that person’s interest in the land, and who suffers loss as a result, is entitled to compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, under Part 1 of the 1961 Act. 5 Compensation is not payable under paragraph (4) to any person to whom section 85 of the 1991 Act (sharing cost of necessary measures) applies in respect of measures of which the allowable costs are to be borne in accordance with that section. Apparatus and rights of statutory undertakers in stopped up streets 23 1 Where a street is stopped up under article 12 (stopping up of streets) any statutory utility whose apparatus is under, in, on, along or across the street has the same powers and rights in respect of that apparatus, subject to the provisions of this article, as if this Order had not been made. 2 Where a street is stopped up under article 12 any statutory utility whose apparatus is under, in, on, over, along or across the street may, and if reasonably requested to do so by the undertaker must— a remove the apparatus and place it or other apparatus provided in substitution for it in such other position as the statutory utility may reasonably determine and have power to place it; or b provide other apparatus in substitution for the existing apparatus and place it in such position as described in sub-paragraph (a). 3 Subject to the following provisions of this article, the undertaker must pay to any statutory utility an amount equal to the cost reasonably incurred by the statutory utility in or in connection with— a the execution of the relocation works required in consequence of the stopping up of the street; and b the doing of any other work or thing rendered necessary by the execution of the relocation works. 4 If in the course of the execution of relocation works— a apparatus of a better type, of greater capacity or of greater dimensions is placed in substitution for existing apparatus; or b apparatus (whether existing apparatus or apparatus substituted for existing apparatus) is placed at a depth greater than the depth at which the existing apparatus was, and the placing of that new apparatus involves additional costs which would not have been incurred if the apparatus had been of the same type, capacity or laid at the same depth as the existing apparatus, then the amount payable to the statutory utility is to be reduced by a sum equivalent to those additional costs. 5 For the purposes of paragraph (4)— a an extension of apparatus to a length greater than the length of existing apparatus is not to be treated as a placing of apparatus of greater dimensions than those of the existing apparatus; and b where the provision of a joint in a cable is agreed, or is determined to be necessary, the consequential provision of a jointing chamber or of a manhole is to be treated as if it also had been agreed or had been so determined. 6 An amount which, apart from this paragraph, would be payable to a statutory utility in respect of works by virtue of paragraph (3) (and having regard, where relevant, to paragraph (4)) must, if the works include the placing of apparatus provided in substitution for apparatus placed more than 7 years and 6 months earlier so as to confer on the statutory utility any financial benefit by deferment of the time for renewal of the apparatus in the ordinary course, be reduced by the amount which represents that benefit. 7 Paragraphs (3) to (6) do not apply where the authorised development constitutes major highway works, major bridge works or major transport works for the purposes of Part 3 of the 1991 Act, but instead— a the allowable costs of the relocation works are to be determined in accordance with section 85 of that Act (sharing of cost of necessary measures) and any regulations for the time being having effect under that section; and b the allowable costs are to be borne by the undertaker and the statutory utility in such proportions as may be prescribed by any such regulations. PART 6 Miscellaneous and general Operation and use of railways 24 1 The undertaker may operate and use the railway and any other elements of the authorised development as a system, or part of a system, of transport for the carriage of goods. 2 Nothing in this Order, or in any enactment incorporated with or applied by this Order, prejudices or affects the operation of Part 1 (the provision of railway services) of the Railways Act 1993 . Charges 25 The undertaker may demand, take and recover or waive such charges for carrying goods on the railway comprised in the authorised development, or for any other services or facilities provided in connection with the operation of that railway, as it thinks fit. Felling or lopping of trees 26 1 Subject to paragraph (4) the undertaker may fell or lop any tree or shrub near any part of the authorised development, 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 development or any apparatus used in connection with the authorised development; or b from constituting a danger to persons using the authorised development. 2 In carrying out any activity authorised by paragraph (1), the undertaker must not cause unnecessary damage to any tree or shrub and must pay compensation to any person for any loss or damage arising from such activity. 3 Any dispute as to a person’s entitlement to compensation under paragraph (2), or as to the amount of compensation, is to be determined under Part 1 of the 1961 Act. 4 The provisions of this article do not apply without the agreement of the relevant planning authority to any tree identified to be retained in the landscaping scheme approved under requirement 8 (provision of landscaping). 5 The provisions of this article do not apply without the agreement of the relevant highway authority to any tree within a highway.
