Regulation of cycle paths required the intervention of the Constitutional Court: the Parliament is proposing to address it

A draft resolution submitted by members of the TTK Committee asserts that the government overstepped its authority by interfering with the jurisdiction of lawmakers. Specifically, the resolution contends that the government exceeded its powers when establishing a disputed legal regulation that was allegedly not grounded in law. The committee stated that this action constituted an unwarranted determination of traffic order, thereby interfering with the proper role of the legislature.

The document highlights that the existing Safer Road Traffic Act is intended to govern crucial aspects of traffic management, including defining key concepts such as “automobile road,” “motorway,” and “expressway.” The repeated listing of these terms emphasizes the established scope of the existing legislation. The core concern raised by the committee is the perceived overreach of the government in creating a regulation that, according to the resolution, lacked a proper legal basis. By intervening in the setting of traffic orders, the committee suggests the government encroached upon the competence reserved for lawmakers.

This suggests a dispute over the appropriate division of authority between the executive branch and the legislative body concerning traffic law implementation and amendment.
