You can get a court order to enter someone's land to work on a line for telecommunications. The District Court can make this order if certain requirements are met. You need to show the court that you have tried to negotiate with the landowner and that there is no other way to do the work.

The court will look at whether the work is necessary for telecommunications and whether you have taken all reasonable steps to get permission from the landowner. The court will also consider whether there is a practical alternative route for the line. If the court is satisfied with these things, it can make an order allowing you to enter the land and do the work you need to do, which can include constructing, erecting, laying, or maintaining a line, and this is similar to what was in the 1987 legislation. You can enter the land at reasonable times with anyone or anything you need to do the work.
