such part of a transitway as is not a road within the meaning of the road transport legislation (but is developed for, or has as one of its main uses, the driving or riding of motor vehicles) in the same way as if it were such a road, and

such part of a transitway as is not a road related area within the meaning of the road transport legislation (but is an area that divides, or is a footpath or nature strip adjacent to, a part of a transitway referred to in paragraph (a)) in the same way as if it were such a road related area.

The regulations may prescribe the classes of traffic that are permitted to enter or travel along, or are prohibited from entering or travelling along, a transitway or any part of a transitway.
