introduce orders to manage traffic. Where Traffic Regulation Orders
are required, they should not give rise to any particular legal
implications, provided the works and procedures are carried out in
accordance with the relevant statutory requirements, which would
include the consideration of any objections to a proposed Traffic
Regulation Order.
