All traffic and parking regulations of a permanent nature shall
be enacted as ordinances, as parts of ordinances, as amendments to
ordinances, or as amendments to this chapter, except where the law
specifically authorizes less formal action.
The provisions of this chapter, so far as they are the same
as those of ordinances and regulations in force immediately before
the enactment of this chapter, are intended as a continuation of those
earlier ordinances and regulations, and not as new enactments. Nothing
in this chapter shall affect any act done or liability incurred, or
any suit or prosecution pending or to be instituted under any of those
repealed or superseded ordinances or regulations.
The Board of Supervisors may, from time to time by resolution,
designate places upon and along the highways in the Township of Upper
Makefield where, for a period of not more than 90 days, specific traffic
and/or parking regulations, prohibitions and restrictions shall be
in force and effect, and shall designate such locations by proper
signs and markings. Such regulations, prohibitions and restrictions
shall be effective as if they had been specified in this chapter.
No person shall operate and no person shall move, remove, destroy
or deface any sign or marking erected, posted or made by authority
of this section. Any person who shall violate any provision of this
section shall, upon conviction thereof, be subject to the penalty
set forth in the law or elsewhere in this chapter for a violation
of such nature, and in case of a violation for which no specific penalty
is set forth in the law or elsewhere in this chapter, to a fine of
not more than $25 together with costs of prosecution; provided, the
purpose of this section is to allow for the test and experimental
determination of the feasibility and desirability of permanent changes
in the ordinances of the Township of Upper Makefield relative to traffic
and parking.
The police officers of the Township of Upper Makefield are hereby
authorized to direct traffic on the highways of the Township and at
intersections thereof and to otherwise enforce the provisions of this
chapter.
