RAILWAYS CLAUSES CONSOLIDATION ACT 1845 - SECT 59

Proceedings on application to justices to consent to level crossings over highways other than public carriage roads.

59. When the company shall intend to apply for the consent of two justices, as
herein-before provided, so as to authorize them to carry the railway across
any highway other than a public carriage road on the level, they shall,
fourteen days at least previous to the holding of the petty sessions at which
such application is intended to be made, cause notice of such intended
application to be given in some newspaper circulating in the county, and also
to be affixed upon the door of the parish church of the parish in which such
crossing is intended to be made, or, if there be no such church, some other
place to which notices are usually affixed; and if it appear to any two or
more justices acting for the district in which such highway at the proposed
crossing thereof is situate, and assembled in petty sessions, after such
notice as aforesaid, that the railway can, consistently with a due regard to
the public safety and convenience, be carried across such highway on the
level, it shall be lawful for such justices to consent that the same may be so
carried accordingly.
