§ 19-7.1 Adoption of the "Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways."

[New]

The Governing Body finds and declares that problems of traffic control occur when traffic must be moved through or around street construction, maintenance operations and utility work, above or below ground which requires blocking the street 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 safe and expeditious movement of traffic through and around construction and maintenance zones and to provide safety for the work forces performing these operations.

The Borough of Belmar, in the County of Monmouth, State of New Jersey does hereby adopt the current Manual on Uniform Control Devices for Streets and Highways hereafter known as the M.U.T.C.D., except as hereby supplemented and amended, as it controls and regulates whenever construction, maintenance operations or utility work obstructs the normal flow of traffic. Any person, contractor or utility who fails to comply with the provisions of the M.U.T.C.D. while performing such work is in violation of this section.

§ 19-7.2 Preconstruction Meetings.

[New]

It shall be the responsibility of the person, contractor, or in the case of a public utility as required under the public utility, wishing to conduct work on, under or above the street to contact the Police Department of the Borough in order to arrange a preconstruction meeting and submit plans for the safe movement of traffic during such period of construction or 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 of the Borough of Belmar is in violation of this section.

§ 19-7.3 Emergency Contact Telephone Numbers.

[New]

The person, contractor or utility shall provide at least two emergency contact telephone 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 must be made, or if the emergency contact person does not respond to a call from the Police Department to correct such hazardous condition, the Borough may respond to correct the hazardous condition(s). The reasonable fees for such emergency services by the Borough shall be charged to the person, contractor, or utility responsible for the condition.

§ 19-7.4 Hours.

[New]

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. The officer in charge of the Borough Police Department may adjust this time limit permit work prior to 9:00 a.m. or after 4:00 p.m. If the officer in charge determines 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. or after 4:00 p.m.

§ 19-7.5 Road Closings.

[New]

Road closings and/or traffic detours shall not be permitted unless approved by the Borough Police Department.

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.

§ 19-7.9 Violations and Penalties.
