Public Works Act 1981

Motorways

144: Alterations to roads, drains, etc

You could also call this:

“This rule about changing roads and drains was cancelled in 1989”

This law used to be about changes to roads, drains, and other similar things related to motorways. However, it’s not in use anymore. The government got rid of this rule on 1 October 1989. They did this as part of another law called the Government Roading Powers Act 1989. When a law is removed like this, we say it has been ‘repealed’. This means it doesn’t apply anymore and you can’t use it.
