The Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions hereby gives notice that he proposes to make an Order under section 247 of the above Act to authorise the stopping-up of a length of footway at Cox Road, Coseley and the stopping-up of Public Footpath C104.
  If the Order is made, the stopping-up will be authorised only in order to enable the development described in the Schedule to this notice to be carried out in accordance with the planning permission granted by Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council on 20th March 1998, under reference 96/51523.
  The proposed Order will require an improvement of a length of footway at Cox Road and the provision of a new footpath which will be referred to as Public Footpath C104 and will be a diversion of existing Public Footpath C104, maintainable at the public expense for which Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council will be the local highway authority.
  The proposed Order will provide that the stopping-up must not be carried out until the developer has provided a new footpath and that footpath shall be maintainable at the public expense for which Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council will be the local highway authority.
  Copies of the draft Order and relevant plan may be inspected at all reasonable hours during 28 days commencing on 17th April 1998, at the offices of Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council, Council House, Mary Stevens Park, Stourbridge DY8 2AA, and may be obtained, free of charge, from the Government Office for the West Midlands (quoting reference 5106/35/1/7) at the address stated below.
