The Traffic Director for London, following a direction given to him by the Secretary
of State under section 58(1) of the Road Traffic Act 1991, to implement a Trunk Road
Local Plan, hereby gives notice as follows.
The A205 Trunk Road (Greenwich) Red Route Experimental Traffic Order 1997 (“the
experimental Order”) was made under section 9 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984,
and came into force on 1st February 1997.
Notice of the making of the experimental Order was published on 22nd January 1997.
That notice contained a statement that the Traffic Director would be considering in
due course whether the provisions of the experimental Order should be continued in
force indefinitely. The Traffic Director has carefully considered whether or not those
provisions should be continued indefinitely and has decided that they should be so
continued. No objections have been received by the Traffic Director in respect of
the provisions imposed by the experimental Order.
Therefore, in exercise of the powers conferred on the Secretary of State by section
6 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, and in accordance with regulation 14 of
the Secretary of State’s Traffic Orders (Procedure) (England and Wales) Regulations
1990, the Traffic Director has made The A205 Trunk Road (Greenwich) Red Route Traffic
Order 1998 (“the permanent Order”). That Order will come into force on 6th March 1998,
and the effect of that Order will be to continue in force indefinitely the provisions
of the experimental Order.
The road affected by the permanent Order is the A205 Westhorne Avenue in the London
Borough of Greenwich.
A copy of the permanent Order, a map indicating the location and effect of the
Order, a statement of reasons and a copy of the experimental Order and any other Order
revoked, suspended or varied by the permanent Order can be inspected during normal
office hours at the offices of The Traffic Director for London, College House, Great
Peter Street, London SW1P 3LN and Greenwich Council, Peggy Middleton House, 50 Woolwich
New Road, London SE18 6HQ.
Any person desiring to question the validity of the permanent Order or of any provision
contained in it on the grounds that it is not within the relevant powers, or that
any of the relevant requirements have not been complied with in relation to that Order,
may, within 6 weeks of the date on which that Order was made, make application for
the purpose to the High Court.
D. Turner, Traffic Director for London 26th February 1998.
