Part 4: Transport Section 27: Concurrent exercise of powers of a local traffic authority
Section 27(1) grants the power to make Games TTROs and issue Games TTRNs to the authority appointed to produce the Games transport plan as per section 25(1) as if they were the local traffic authority for the roads being regulated. An order made or notice issued by this authority will be treated as if it were an order made or notice issued by the local traffic authority.
	Subsections (2) and (3) establish that this power is dependent on the consent of the relevant local traffic authority and subsequently on this local traffic authority being identified in future regulations issued by the Secretary of State. The authority directed to prepare the plan will furthermore only be able to make a Games order or issue a Games notice if the local traffic authority for the road agrees to it (subsection (4)).
	When exercising powers under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, including those provided by section 26 of this Act, section 122 of the 1984 Act requires the local traffic authority to have regard to the need to secure access to premises, protecting amenities, environmental considerations, facilitating the passage of public service vehicles and their users and other pertinent considerations before complying with their duty to use powers under the Act to secure the expeditious, convenient and safe movement of vehicular, pedestrian and other traffic and the provision of suitable and adequate parking facilities, both on and off the highway. Section 27(5) provides that this duty will also apply to a local traffic authority when it is asked to agree, under subsection (4), to an order being made or a notice issued by the authority directed to prepare the plan.
