Go to Explanatory Note

An application has been made to the Secretary of State in accordance with the Transport and Works (Applications and Objections Procedure) (England and Wales) Rules 2000(1) made under sections 6, 6A, 7 and 10 of the Transport and Works Act 1992(2) (“the 1992 Act”) for an Order under sections 3(1)(b) and 5 of the 1992 Act.

The Secretary of State caused an inquiry to be held for the purposes of the application pursuant to section 11 of the 1992 Act.

The Secretary of State, having considered the objections made and not withdrawn and the report of the person who held the inquiry, has determined to make an Order giving effect to the proposals comprised in the application with modifications which in his opinion do not make any substantial change in the proposals.

The Secretary of State is satisfied that the provision of an alternative right of way for the street mentioned in Schedule 3 (street to be stopped up for which no substitute is to be provided) to this Order is not required.

The Secretary of State is of the opinion that the primary object of this Order cannot be achieved by means of an Order under the Harbours Act 1964(3).

Notice of the Secretary of State’s determination was published in the London Gazette on 6th February 2007.

Accordingly, the Secretary of State in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 3(1)(b) and 5 of, and paragraphs 1 to 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13 and 15 to 17 of Schedule 1 to, the 1992 Act and by article 2 of the Transport and Works (Descriptions of Works Interfering with Navigation) Order 1992(4) makes the following Order:—

(1)

S.I. 2000/2190. Back [1]

(3)

1964 c. 40. Back [3]

(4)

S.I. 1992/3230 as amended by S.I. 1997/2906. Back [4]
