3. The Orders provides that in pursuance of section 10(2) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, the Group Manager for Highways and Transport of the Council of the London Borough of Sutton, or some other person authorised in that behalf by that officer may, if it appears to that officer or to that other person essential in the interests of the expeditious, convenient and safe movement of traffic, or of the provision of suitable and adequate parking facilities on the highway, or for preserving or improving the amenities of the area through which the road affected by these Orders runs, modify or suspend these Orders or any of its provisions save that no modification shall make an addition.

4. If the provisions of the Orders continue in operation for a period of not less than six months, the Council of the London Borough of Sutton will consider in due course whether the provisions of the Orders should be reproduced and continued in force indefinitely by means of an Order under section 6 of the said Act of 1984.
