Road Traffic Acts

The Secretary of State for Transport hereby gives notice that she intends to make an Order under sections 84(1)(a) and (2) of, and paragraph 27(1) of Schedule 9 to, the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 on the A49 Trunk Road at Dinmore Hill in the District of the County of Herefordshire.

The effect of the Order would be to amend the A49 Trunk Road (Dinmore Hill, Herefordshire) (50 Miles Per Hour Speed Limit) Order 2005 by deleting from article 2 of that Order the number “150”, and substituting the number “168”.
