Background
A Highway Stopping Up Order is a legal procedure used to close or divert a public highway. The procedure involves obtaining formal approval from the local authority or the Secretary of State, which can require a detailed application and consultation process. We guide you through the complex procedure of applying for a Highway Stopping Up Order, ensuring compliance with statutory requirements and supporting the legal processes involved.
Experience
We have successfully supported a variety of projects, including Manchester City Football Club Academy, where we assisted in securing a Highway Stopping Up Order to facilitate the redevelopment of the site. This included navigating the legal complexities and liaising with local authorities to ensure the smooth removal of conflicting highway access, allowing the project to proceed without disruption.
Another significant project involved Canal Mills, where we worked with stakeholders to secure a Highway Stopping Up Order to enable a site redevelopment. Our role included providing the necessary technical support to demonstrate that the proposed changes would not adversely affect public safety or accessibility, facilitating the successful progression of the project.
