The Borough Council 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
the 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 Pitman, in the County of Gloucester, 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 that
fails to comply with the provisions of the M.U.T.C.D. while performing
such work is in violation of this section.
[1967 Code § 12-12.2; Ord. No.
28-2011]
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 of Pitman, in order to arrange
a pre-construction 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 Pitman is in violation of this
section.
[1967 Code § 12-12.3; Ord. No.
28-2011]
The person, contractor or utility shall provide to the Police
Department 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
contacts 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 service by the Borough shall
be charged to the person, contractor, or utility responsible for the
condition.
[1967 Code § 12-12.4; Ord. No.
28-2011]
a. 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 Pitman Police Department
may adjust this time limit to 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.
b. There shall be no construction, maintenance operations or utility
work on any roadway in the Borough on Saturdays or Sundays unless
approved by the Officer in Charge of the Pitman Police Department.

any emergency. The moratorium period shall commence on the date of
final acceptance of the road which has been resurfaced or reconstructed.
c. No road closings shall be permitted for an opening on any roadway
surface which has been overlayed or resurfaced within two years after
completion of said overlay except in the event of any emergency.
[1967 Code § 12-12.6; Ord. No.

sites when determined that same is necessary to provide for the safe
and expeditious movement of traffic.
[1967 Code § 12-12.8; Ord. No.
28-2011]
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 related

violation of this section.

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

days.
A separate offense shall be deemed committed on each day during
or on which the violation occurs or continues.
[1967 Code § 12-3.1; Ord. No. 28-2011]
The provisions of this Section 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.
[1967 Code § 12-3.2; Ord. No. 28-2011]
a. Upon
the declaration of an emergency, there shall be no parking upon the
streets where temporary EMERGENCY NO PARKING signs are displayed.
The Chief of Police or, in his 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.
[Ord. No. 28-2011]
a. Whenever snow has fallen and the accumulation is such that it covers
the streets and highways, an emergency shall exist and no vehicle

and to the extent that parking will not interfere with the normal
flow of traffic.
b. Any unoccupied vehicle parked or standing in violation 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.
