[Ord. No.
1268 § 5]
The governing body hereby finds and declares
that problems of traffic control occur and traffic must be moved through
or around street construction, maintenance operations, and utility
work, above and below ground which requires blocking the roadway and
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
safety and expeditious movement of traffic through construction and
maintenance zones and to provide safety for the work force performing
these operations.
The Borough of Ramsey, in the County of Bergen,
State of New Jersey, does hereby adopt the current Manual on Uniform
Traffic Control Devices hereafter known as M.U.T.C.D., except as hereby
supplemented and amended, as it controls and regulates whenever construction
maintenance operations of utility work obstructs the normal flow of
traffic. Any person, contractor, or utility, who fails to comply with
the provisions of M.U.T.C.D. while performing such work is in violation
of this section.
[Ord. No.
1268 § 5]
It shall be the responsibility of the person,
contractor, or in the case of a public utility agreement, wishing
to conduct work on, under or above the roadway to contact the Police
Department in order to arrange a preconstruction meeting in order
to submit plans for the safe movement of traffic during such period
of construction work. Any person, contractor or utility who fails
to comply with this section prior to the start of such work or whose
plans are not approved by the Police Department is in violation of
this section.
[Ord. No.
1268 § 5]
The person, contractor, or utility shall provide
the Police Department with at least two emergency contact phone numbers
to be called in case of emergency problems at the construction or
maintenance site prior to the start of any work. If for any reason
emergency contact cannot be reached, or if the emergency contact person
does not respond to the call from the Police Department to correct
a hazardous condition, the Borough may respond to correct such hazardous
condition. The reasonable fees for such emergency service by the Borough
shall be charged to the person, contractor, or utility for such condition.
[Ord. No.
1268 § 5]
There shall be no construction, maintenance
operations, or utility work on any roadway in the Borough before the
hour of 9:00 a.m. or after 4:00 p.m. This time limit may be adjusted
to permit work prior to 9:00 a.m. or after 4:00 p.m. by the officer
in charge of the Police Department. If it is determined by the officer
in charge that the construction or maintenance operations prior to
9:00 a.m. or after 4:00 p.m. would substantially delay traffic or
cause a safety or health hazard, the work shall then be permitted
only between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
[Ord. No.
1268 § 5]
Road closing and/or traffic detours shall not
be permitted unless approved by the Police Department.
[Ord. No.

Traffic directors shall be posted at all construction
or maintenance sites when determined by the Police Department that
same is necessary to provide for the safety and expeditious movement
of traffic.
[Ord. No.
1268 § 5]
The Police Department shall have the authority
to stop work, including the removal of equipment and vehicles, stored
material within the street right-of-way, back filling of open excavations
and/or other related work, in order to abate any nuisance and/or safety
hazard or for any violation of this section.
[Ord. No.
1268 § 5]
It is to be expressly understood that no materials,
vehicle or equipment are to be placed in the roadway or sidewalk or
until all construction, signs, lights devices and pavement markings
are installed.
[Ord. No.
1268 § 5]
Any person, contractor or utility who commits
a violation of this section shall, upon conviction thereof for a first
offense pay a fine of not less than $100 nor more than $500 and/or
be imprisoned in the County jail for a term not exceeding 90 days.
For a second offense, upon conviction thereof, pay a fine of not less
than $250 and/or be imprisoned in the County jail for a term not exceeding

A separate offense shall be deemed committed
on each day during or on which a violation occurs or continues.
[Ord. No.
