The order, which was required for the interest of road safety was in operation from 25 March 2025. It would have expired on 29 October 2025 and will now continue in force until 25 March 2026 unless a further direction under section 15(3) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 is given, or the order is revoked or amended.
