Submission and contents of road plans.
|
21.—(1) Where a planning scheme contains a restricted development provision, the owner of any land to which such provision relates may, if he so thinks fit, prepare and submit in duplicate to the responsible authority a scheme or plan (in this Part of this Act referred to as a road plan) regulating the improvement of existing roads on such land or the construction of new roads on such land or both such improvement and such construction.
|
|
| |
(2) The following provisions shall have effect in relation to road plans, that is to say:—
|
|
| |
(a) a road plan which provides for the improvement of an existing road on the land to which such road plan relates may regulate the nature of such improvement;
|
|
| |
(b) a road plan which provides for the construction of a new road on the land to which such road plan relates may regulate the situation and nature of such road;
|
|
| |
(c) a road plan may prohibit the making, without the consent of the responsible authority, of any improvement at all or any particular improvement of a particular existing road on the land to which such road plan relates;
|
|
| |
(d) a road plan may prohibit the construction, without the consent of the responsible authority, of any new road whatever or any particular new road on the land to which such road plan relates.
|
|
| |
(3) Where a road plan provides for the construction of a new road or the improvement of an existing road on the land to which such road plan relates, such road plan may provide that, if the appropriate local authority charged with the construction and maintenance of roads so consents, such construction or improvement shall be carried out by such local authority and that thereupon a sum equal to the whole or a specified part of the cost of such construction or improvement shall be paid by the owner of such land to such local authority.
|
|
| |
(4) Where, between the coming into operation of a planning scheme and the coming into force of a road plan, a new road has been constructed by a local authority on the land to which such road plan relates or an existing road on such land has been improved by a local authority and the development of such land has, in the opinion of the responsible authority, been facilitated or rendered less costly by such construction or improvement, such road plan may provide that a sum equal to the whole or a specified part of the cost of such construction or improvement shall be paid by the owner of such land to such local authority.
|
|
| |
(5) In this section references to roads or a road on particular land shall be construed as including roads or a road partly on such land and roads or a road contiguous to or in the immediate neighbourhood of such land.
