This is clearly happening. Why did wales have to implement theirs with statutory instrument whereas it’s happening all across England with no consultation; no legislative changes approved by parliament like in wales?

Wales changed the default by statute. England is free to do the same at the national level, it just hasn't, so it's done on a local basis mainly by TRO.

So is every change having a revised TRO then, is that how they do it? It’s happening in road after road after road. I haven’t seen any notices go up about potential changes to TROs if they need to when being changed (I don’t know). I guess not.

It doesn t have to be one road, one TRO. Councils can carpet bomb an area with a TRO covering a batch of roads. The consultation/notice can be just a council legal notice rather than something obvious on every street.

Here's an example https://www.sheffield.gov.uk/sites/default/files/2...
