The Secretary of State for Wales hereby gives notice that he has made an Order under section 247 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 to authorise the stopping-up of the lengths of highway described in Schedule 1 to this notice.   The stopping-up is authorised only in order to enable the development described in Schedule 2 to this notice to be carried out in accordance with planning permission granted by the Borough Council of Taff Ely, on 13th December 1995, under Ref. 95/0648/10, and by Rhondda Cynon Taff County Borough Council, on 12th July 1996, under Ref. 96/0116/10. The Order shall cease to have effect on cessation of these planning permissions.   The Order requires the provision of new highway which will be highway maintainable at the public expense, for which Rhondda Cynon Taff County Borough Council shall be the Highway Authority.   Copies of the Order and the deposited plan may be inspected, free of charge, at the offices of Rhondda Cynon Taff County Borough Council, Planning and Economic Development, Llwyn Castan, Library Road, Pontypridd, or may be obtained, free of charge, from the Welsh Office Highways Directorate, Cathays Park, Cardiff CF1 3NQ, (quoting Ref. ZC510-5-58-1).   If any person desires to question the validity of the Order, or of any provision contained therein on the grounds:   (a) that it is not within the powers of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, or   (b) that his interests have been substantially prejudiced by a failure to comply with any of the requirements of the Act, he may, within 6 weeks of 19th February 1998, apply to the High Court for the suspension or quashing of the Order or of any provision contained therein.
