[Amended 10-5-2021 by Ord. No. 2021-16]
A. Purpose. The purpose of this section is to address problems of traffic
control occurring when traffic must be moved through and around road
or street construction, maintenance operations and utility work, above
or below ground, which require blocking the roadway and/or obstructing
the normal flow of traffic, and that such obstructions are or can
become dangerous when not properly controlled. In order to better
promote the public health, safety, peace and welfare, it is necessary
to establish controls and regulations directed to the safe and expeditious
movement of traffic through construction and maintenance zones and
to provide safety for those performing such operations.
B. Adoption of standards. The Borough of Chester hereby adopts the Manual
on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), as amended, and supplemented
from time to time and except as hereby explicitly or implicitly amended
and supplemented, as it controls and regulates whenever construction,
maintenance operations or utility work obstructs the normal flow of
traffic. Any person, utility or contractor failing to comply with
the provisions of the MUTCD while performing such work is in violation
of this section.
C. Definitions. For the purposes of this section, the following terms
shall have the meanings herein set forth:
CHIEF OF POLICE
The Chief of the Chester Police Department or his/her designee.
CONTRACTOR
Construction companies, excavators, land developers and any
and all persons connected with construction affecting traffic conditions,
including the owner and/or resident of the affected property.
ROADWAY or STREET
Any road, highway, public way, public alley, easement or
other right-of-way over which the public travels or to which the public
has access, whether publicly or privately maintained and/or owned,
including dedicated but unaccepted subdivision streets, situated within
the Borough of Chester.
D. Preconstruction meeting. It shall be the responsibility of a contractor
wishing to work, below, on or above any roadway to contact the Chief
of Police to arrange a preconstruction meeting to submit plans for
the safe movement of traffic during the period of construction work.
Failure to comply with this section prior to the start of work or
working without approval of the traffic plan by the Chief of Police
is a violation of this section.
E. Information to be provided. Prior to the start of any work, the contractor
shall provide to the Chief of Police, with sufficient copies for the
project engineer, the Superintendent of Public Works, and the Borough
Administrator, at least two emergency phone numbers to be called in
case of emergency problems at the work site. If the emergency contacts
cannot be reached or, after being reached, fail to respond to a call
from the police to correct a hazardous condition, the Borough may
correct such condition and assess the reasonable cost of same to the
contractor.
F. Hours of operation. No construction, maintenance operations or utility
work shall be conducted below, on or above any heavily traveled roadway
before the hour of 9:00 a.m. or after the hour of 4:00 p.m., except
that in emergency situations or when traffic volumes dictate, the
Chief of Police may modify or waive such limits. On all other streets,
hours of operation shall be from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
G. Consent required. Notwithstanding any other paragraph of this section,
no roadway shall be closed, nor any detour established without the
prior consent of the Chief of Police, who, after consultation with
the Superintendent of Public Works and the project engineer, shall
specify the times and dates for the closing and reopening of the roadway,
and no deviation therefrom shall be permitted. Requests for roadway
closings or detours must be made no fewer than 72 hours in advance,
except that where any emergency exists, such closings or detours may
be approved immediately at the sole discretion of the Chief of Police.
H. Traffic directors. Traffic directors shall be posted at all construction
or maintenance sites when it is determined by the Chief of Police
that the same are necessary to provide for safety and the expeditious
movement of traffic. In any instance where it is necessary to change
the direction of any vehicle or pedestrian, a uniformed police officer
shall be required, the same to be provided at the expense of the contractor.
I. Stop-work orders. The Chief of Police shall have the authority to
stop work and/or order the removal of vehicles and/or equipment and/or
stored materials in the right-of-way, backfilling of open excavations
and/or any related work in order to abate any nuisance, traffic delay
or safety hazard or any violation of this section.
J. Emergency work. In case of an emergency where construction, maintenance
or utility work must be performed and where such work will obstruct,
interfere with or detour traffic on any roadway within the Borough,
the contractor shall immediately notify the Chief of Police of the
nature of the emergency, the location thereof and the hours of work.
All such emergency work will be performed with full regard to safety
and the absolute minimization of traffic interference.
K. Signs. All signing and other traffic control devices shall be placed
on self-supporting structures and shall not be affixed to trees, utility
poles or traffic devices which are the property of the Borough. All
signs and other traffic control devices shall conform to the MUTCD,
current edition. All signs and other traffic control devices shall
be kept clean and distinct and free from grease, dust, or other blurring
matter so as to be plainly visible at all times of the day or night.
No signs or other traffic control devices shall be permitted to be
obscured by trees or parked vehicles.
L. Diagram of proposed devices. At the time of the preconstruction meeting,
the types of proposed traffic control devices to be utilized for the
project shall be shown by a diagram and a written list. A copy of
the diagram as approved by the Chief of Police shall be maintained
by the contractor at all times at the job site for possible review.
M. Violations and penalties. A violation of any section of this section
shall be punishable in municipal court, upon conviction thereof, by
a fine of not less than $100 nor more than $1,000 or imprisonment
for not more than 90 days, or both. Each day upon which a violation
occurs shall be deemed a separate offense, and violation of more than
one subsection of this section shall constitute separate violations.
Regulations not exclusive. The provisions of
this chapter imposing a time limit on parking shall not relieve any
person of the duty to observe other more restrictive provisions prohibiting
or limiting the stopping or standing or parking of vehicles as set
forth in N.J.S.A. 39:4-138, any other New Jersey Statute or as hereinafter
provided.
A. Upon the declaration of an emergency, there shall
be no parking upon the streets where temporary EMERGENCY NO PARKING
signs are displayed. The Chief of Police or, in his absence, the ranking
police officer is authorized to declare an emergency and to direct
the posting of EMERGENCY NO PARKING signs when weather conditions,
accidents, road construction, fire or public celebrations dictate
or require avoidance of hazards or other conditions which interfere
with the free flow of traffic. Notification that EMERGENCY NO PARKING
signs are being or will be posted shall be given to the operator or
owner of any vehicle which has been parked prior to the posting of
the signs.
B. The enforcement of this section is contingent upon
the signs being erected as required by law.
[Amended 7-6-2010 by Ord. No. 2010-21]
A. Whenever snow has fallen and the accumulation is such
that it covers the streets and highways, an emergency shall exist
and no vehicle shall be parked on the streets or highways or portions
thereof indicated below. The above parking prohibitions shall remain
in effect after the snow has ceased until the streets have been plowed
sufficiently and to the extent that parking will not interfere with
the normal flow of traffic.
B. Any unoccupied vehicle parked or standing in violation
shall be deemed a nuisance and a menace to the safe and proper regulation
of traffic, and any police officer may provide for the removal of
such vehicle. The owner shall pay the reasonable costs of the removal
and storage, which may result from such removal before regaining possession
of the vehicle.
