Part 4: Transport Section 26: Temporary prohibition or restriction on roads
Section 26(1) allows a traffic authority for a road in England to make a temporary traffic regulation order (TTRO) or issue a temporary traffic regulation notice (TTRN) for the purposes of implementing the Games transport plan, facilitating transport services in connection with the Games, and facilitating travel by any person for a purpose connected to the Games. Both TTROs and TTRNs can be used to impose restrictions or prohibitions upon road use, including footpaths, cycle tracks and other types of highway, that the traffic authority may consider necessary. They can apply to identified classes of vehicle, motorised or not, or pedestrians. TTROs provide for longer-term temporary restrictions but a proposal to make one needs to be publicised 7 days prior to it being made, whereas TTRNs are a short-term measure that can be used where the traffic authority is satisfied that the restriction or prohibition should come into force without delay. When used for the purposes outlined in subsection (1), these are to be known as "Games temporary traffic regulation orders" or "Games temporary traffic regulation notices".
	Subsection (2) provides that the durations for which TTROs and TTRNs may ordinarily be in place, as per section 15 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, shall not apply in the case of Games TTROs or Games TTRNs; neither will the power to extend them. Regulation 8(3) of the Road Traffic (Temporary Restrictions) Procedure Regulations 1992 is disapplied for Games TTROs to ensure that they can be revoked as soon as they become unnecessary. As Games TTROs will not be made for the purpose of works on the road, regulation 6 is disapplied.
	Subsection (3) provides that Games TTROs or Games TTRNs cannot come into operation any earlier than 21 days before the Games Opening Ceremony. Subsection (4) provides that Games TTROs cannot remain in effect any later than 5 days after the Games Closing Ceremony.
	Subsection (5) provides that Games TTRNs cannot remain in force longer than 21 days in total, starting on the day upon which they were issued, or 5 days after the end of the Games, whichever is sooner.
