In Part 3 of the 1991 Act references, in relation to major highway works, to the highway authority concerned are, in relation to works which are major highway works by virtue of paragraph (1), to be construed as references to the undertaker.

The following provisions of the 1991 Act do not apply in relation to any works executed under the powers conferred by this Order—

• section 56 (directions as to timing);

• section 56A (power to give directions as to placing of apparatus);

• section 58 (restrictions following substantial road works);

• section 58A (restriction on works following substantial street works);

• section 73A (power to require undertaker to re-surface street);

• section 73B (power to specify timing etc. of re-surfacing);

• section 73C (materials, workmanship and standard of re-surfacing);

• section 78A (contributions to costs of re-surfacing by undertaker); and

• Schedule 3A (restriction on works following substantial street works).

The provisions of the 1991 Act mentioned in paragraph (5) (which, together with other provisions of that Act, apply in relation to the execution of street works) and any regulations made, or code of practice issued or approved under, those provisions apply (with the necessary modifications) in relation to any stopping up, alteration or diversion of a street of a temporary nature by the undertaker under the powers conferred by article 13 (temporary prohibition or restriction of use of streets) whether or not the stopping up, alteration or diversion constitutes street works within the meaning of that Act.

The provisions of the 1991 Act14 referred to in paragraph (4) are—

• section 5415 (advance notice of certain works), subject to paragraph (6);

• section 5516 (notice of starting date of works), subject to paragraph (6);

• section 75 (inspection fees);

• section 76 (liability for cost of temporary traffic regulation); and

• section 77 (liability for cost of use of alternative route),

and all such other provisions as apply for the purposes of the provisions mentioned above.

Sections 54 and 55 of the 1991 Act as applied by paragraph (4) have effect as if references in section 57 of that Act to emergency works were a reference to a stopping up, alteration or diversion (as the case may be) required in a case of emergency.
