Transport and Works Act

The Transport and Works Act Orders Unit (TWAOU) processes and decides applications under the Transport and Works Act 1992 for powers to construct and operate railways, tramways and other guided transport schemes, and works which interfere with navigational rights.

This site provides links to copies of decision letters and inspectors' reports, guidance on the procedures - including good practice tips for applications, and to recent consultation papers on improvements to the TWA process.
