Statement of Case August 2011
4 Description of the 2011 draft Supplementary and further Detrunking Orders
4.1 The 2011 draft Supplementary Orders and the further Detrunking Order were
prepared and published on 12 May 2011 under the Highways Act 1980, the
Acquisition of Land Act 1981 and the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004.
4.2 The A46 Trunk Road (Newark to Widmerpool Improvement and Slip Roads)
Supplementary (Side Roads) Order Number 1 20__
I. This Order is made under sections 12, 14, 125 and 326 of the 1980 Act. It
enables the Secretary of State to stop up and provide new private means of
access to premises affected by this Scheme and to vary The A46 Trunk Road
(Newark to Widmerpool Improvement and Slip Roads) (Side Roads) Order
2009.rule 10 of that Act. This corrects a minor error in the 2009 Order.
II. The Order makes changes to the 2009 Order by stopping up two lengths of
private means of access which formally connected Farndon Road to Sproakes
Lane. It also modifies that Order by removing the stopping up of the existing
private means of access from Farndon Road to Mr Walmsley, PA Freight and Mr
Lawrence, and retains that private means of access for pedestrian and cycle
traffic only.
III. The Order also varies the 2009 Order by removing a stopping up of an egress to
a petrol filling station in the vicinity of Saxondale Roundabout, as shown in
Schedule 10 of that Order. This would correct a minor error.

Supplementary Compulsory Purchase Order Number 1 20__
I. This Order is made under Sections 239, 240, and 246 of the 1980 Act, and
under section 2 of the Acquisition of Land Act 1981. The Order authorises
compulsory acquisition of land and rights for the following purposes:
II. The construction and improvement of the new trunk road in the Parish of
Farndon, in the District of Newark and Sherwood;

land interests of PA Freight, Mr Walmsley and Mr Lawrence in order to enlarge
PA Freight’s lorry park; provide a replacement access to the lorry park; and
provide Mr Lawrence with an improved, separate access. The Order will also

the land to construct the necessary works. If this is not possible title will be
taken.
