Abstract
Relates to the Street works (charges for occupation of the Highway) (England) regulations 2012. SI 2012/425, which aims to allow local authorities in England, subject to the approval of the Secretary of State, to implement 'lane rental' charging schemes. These schemes would involve utility companies and others having to pay a daily charge in respect of the street works they carry out on the busiest parts of the road network, with the intention of providing a financial incentive to reduce the resulting disruption to road users.
