If the provisions of the Experimental Traffic Order continue for a period of not less than six months, or if the Order is subsequently varied by another Order under Section 10 of the Act, or modified pursuant to Sub-section (2) of Section 10 of the Act, for a period of not less than six months from the coming into operation of that variation or modification (whatever is the latest), the Council will consider in due course whether the provisions of the Experimental Traffic Order should be reproduced and continued in force indefinitely by means of an Order Under Section 1 of the Act. Any person desiring to object or make other representations relating to the making of the Order under Section 1 of the Act for the purpose of such reproduction and continuation in force may, within the aforementioned period of six months, send a statement in writing of their objection or representations (including any in support) and the grounds thereof by either:- a) using the online form via the webpage quoted above; or b) in writing to the undersigned at Traffic Regulation Orders Team, Hazel House, Merrow Lane, Guildford, Surrey, GU4 7BQ.
