Local Transport Act 2008 Explanatory Notes

Section 104: Local charging schemes to implement policies of ITAs

260.This section amends section 164 of the TA 2000 so that a local charging scheme which is made by one local traffic authority acting alone, and which has effect wholly within an integrated transport area, can be made only if it directly or indirectly facilitates the achievement of the local transport policies of the ITA. Where the charging scheme has effect outside of the integrated transport area then section 104 means that it can be made only if it directly or indirectly facilitates the achievement of the local transport policies of the charging authority.

  • *Local transport policies are defined in section 108(5) of the TA 2000, inserted by section 7, as explained above.
