the Secretary of State’s Traffic Orders (Procedure) (England and Wales) Regulations
1990, the Traffic Director has made The A501 Trunk Road (Camden and Westminster) Red
Route Traffic Order 1998 (“the permanent Order”). That Order will come into force
on 30th January 1998, and the effect of that Order will be to continue in force indefinitely
the provisions of the experimental Order.
The roads affected by the permanent Order are Marylebone Road and Euston Road.
A copy of the permanent Order, a map indicating the location and effect of the
Order, and of a copy of the experimental Order and any other Order revoked, suspended

Any person desiring to question the validity of the permanent Order or of any provision
contained in it on the grounds that it is not within the relevant powers, or that
any of the relevant requirements have not been complied with in relation to the Order,
may, within 6 weeks of the date on which that Order was made, make application for
the purpose to the High Court.
