PART 3FOR THE PROTECTION OF ANGLIAN WATER SERVICES LIMITED

Apparatus in stopped up streets

schedule 14 paragraph 19 + 19.—(1) Where any street is stopped up under article 14 (permanent stopping up of streets), where Anglian Water has apparatus in the street or accessed by virtue of that street, it has the same powers and rights in respect of that apparatus as it enjoyed immediately before the stopping up and the undertaker must use reasonable endeavours to grant or procure the grant of legal easements reasonably satisfactory to Anglian Water in respect of such apparatus and access to it, but nothing in this paragraph affects any right of the undertaker or of Anglian Water to require the removal of that apparatus under paragraph 6 or the power of the undertaker to carry out works under paragraph 8.

(2) Regardless of the temporary stopping up or diversion of streets under the powers conferred by article 15 (temporary stopping up of streets) or the temporary stopping up of public rights of way under the powers conferred by article 16 (public rights of way – creation and temporary stopping up), Anglian Water is at liberty at all times to take all necessary access across any such street and to execute and do all such works and things in, upon or under any such highway as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to enable it to maintain any apparatus which at the time of the stopping up or diversion was in that street or public right of way.
