Commentary Part 5: Integrated Transport Authorities etc. Section 90: Changing the boundaries of an integrated transport area
238.This section allows the Secretary of State to make an order changing the boundary of an existing integrated transport area. This would enable the order to either add to or take away from an integrated transport area the whole of the area of:
	a county;
	a shire district; or
	a metropolitan district.
239.Where the order removes an authority’s territory from an integrated transport area, it must also designate an authority to take over as the local transport authority for that territory. The order may also transfer the former ITA’s other functions – in so far as they relate to that territory – to that authority.
