[New]
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 Frenchtown, in the County of Hunterdon, 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 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.
[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. 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 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.
[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, the person, contractor or utility shall, 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.
[1982 Code § 92-2]
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
streets or sections of streets where temporary EMERGENCY NO PARKING
signs are displayed. The Chief of Police or, in his/her 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 effectiveness of this subsection is contingent upon the signs
being erected as required by law.
c. Any unoccupied vehicle parked or standing in violation of this subsection
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.
[Ord. No. 616]
a. Whenever snow has fallen and the accumulation is two inches or more
and covers the street or highway, an emergency shall exist and no
vehicles shall be parked on the following streets or highways or portions
thereof listed below.
The above parking prohibitions shall remain in effect after
the snow has ceased, until the streets have been plowed significantly,
and to the extent that parking will not interfere with the normal
flow of traffic.
b. Any unoccupied vehicle parked or standing in violation of this section
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.
c. The effectiveness of this subsection is contingent upon signs being
erected as required by law.
d. Unless other penalty is expressly provided by New Jersey Statute,
every person convicted of a violation of this subsection or any supplement
thereto, shall be liable to a penalty of not more than $50 or imprisonment
for a term not exceeding 15 days or both.
