(4) Within seven days after the digging of a public right-of-way, the occupant shall inform the district council. The obligation to assert public rights of way is one of the Council`s most important tasks.

(5) A procedure prior to the confirmation of an order to cancel the highway may be commenced at the same time as a procedure prior to the confirmation of a public highway fortification order or a public diversion order, but may be reviewed – and the district council may enter into an agreement with the applicant for the provision of such facilities by the district council at the applicant`s expense. 9. Where, as a result of an order to cancel the highway or a public diversion order, a highway is blocked or diverted and immediately before the coming into force of this Order, there is a telegraph line under, in, on, on, along or via the road owned or used by British Telecommunications, British Telecommunications has the same powers in respect of that country: as if the Ordinance had not entered into force; however, if a person entitled to the route by which the route existed requests that the telegraph line be changed, paragraphs 1 to 8 of section 7 of the Telegraph Act 1878 apply to the amendment and, accordingly, subject to the necessary modifications, shall take effect as if the references made in those paragraphs to the funeral home contained references to the person who had required a change of line.
