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 Township of Fairfield, in the County of Essex, 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.
[New]
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 pre-construction 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.
[New]
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 Township may respond to correct such hazardous condition. The
reasonable fees for such emergency service by the Township shall be
charged to the person, contractor, or utility for such condition.
[New]
There shall be no construction, maintenance operations, or utility
work on any roadway in the Township 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.
[New]
Road closing and/or traffic detours shall not be permitted unless
approved by the Police Department.
[New]
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.
[New]
The Police Department shall have the authority to stop work,
including the removal of equipment and vehicles, stored materials
within the street right-of-way, backfilling 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.
[New]
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.
[New]
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 90
days.
A separate offense shall be deemed committed on each day during
or on which a violation occurs or continues.
[New]
All ordinances or parts of ordinances which are inconsistent
with the provisions of this section are hereby repealed to the extent
of any such inconsistency.
[New]
This section shall take effect after approval by the Commissioner
of Transportation 20 days after passage and publication as prescribed
by law.
