(b)a temporary alternative route for the passage of such traffic as could have used the public right of way to be stopped up is first provided and subsequently maintained by the undertaker, to the reasonable satisfaction of the street authority, between the commencement and termination points for the public right of way until the completion and opening of the new public right of way in accordance with sub-paragraph (a).
