Power to make new public streets.

The Commissioner, when authorised by the Corporation in this behalf, may at any time— (a) lay out and make a new public street; (b) agree with any person for the making of a street for public use through the land of such person, either entirely at the expense of such person or partly at the expense of such person and partly at the expense of the Corporation, and that such street shall become, on completion, public street, which shall vest in the Corporation ; (c) construct bridges any sub-ways; (d) divert or turn an existing public street vested in the Corporation or a portion thereof. (2) The width of a new public street made under section 205 shall not be less than that prescribed under sub-section (1) for the class to which it belongs, and no steps and, except with the written permission of the Commissioner under section 227, no other projections shall extend on to any such street.
