Planning status of certain works, uses or developments in corridors
59 Planning status of certain works, uses or developments in corridors
A responsible manager in relation to a corridor is not, in relation to – emergency works within the corridor; or routine works that are carried out wholly within the corridor in order to attain the corridor safety and use objectives – required to comply with the requirements of the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993.
Despite any provision of the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993 or of a planning scheme within the meaning of that Act, all uses or developments on corridor land, other than works referred to in subsection (1), are taken to be uses or developments that a planning authority has a discretion either to refuse or permit in accordance with section 57 of the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993.
To avoid doubt over the application of subsection (1)(b), the question of whether works are carried out wholly within a corridor is to be determined irrespective of whether a responsible manager has to access adjoining land to carry out those works.
