Public Works Act 1981

Limited access roads

153: Creation and revocation of limited access roads

You could also call this:

“Old rules about special roads have been taken out of the law”

The ‘Creation and revocation of limited access roads’ section of the Public Works Act 1981 has been removed. This means it no longer applies. The government took this section out of the law on 1 October 1989. They did this through another law called the Government Roading Powers Act 1989. If you want to know more about limited access roads now, you might need to look at newer laws.
