15. Door opening onto roads
(1) A door, gate or bar put up on any premises shall not be so put up as
to open outwards on a road beyond the boundary line between the premises
and the road unless, in the case of a door, gate or bar which is put up on a
public building, the highway authority responsible for the road consents to its
being otherwise put up.
(2) Where a door, gate or bar is put up on any premises in contravention
of subsection (1), the highway authority responsible for the road may, by
notice in writing to the owner or occupier of the premises, require him to
alter, so as not to open outwards, the door, gate or bar.
(3) Any person, on whom a notice under subsection (2) is served and
who fails to comply with the notice within 21 days from the date of service
of the notice on him, shall commit an offence and the highway authority may
do the work required by the notice and recover the expenses reasonably incurred in so doing from that person as if it were a civil debt.
