If any part or parts of this chapter are, for any reason, held

All former traffic ordinances of the municipality are hereby
repealed, and all ordinances or parts of ordinances in conflict with

except that this repeal shall not affect or prevent the prosecution
or punishment of any person for any act done or committed in violation
of any ordinance hereby repealed prior to the taking effect of this
chapter.
A. Traffic controls for street and
highway construction and maintenance operations; adoption of the Manual
on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways.
(1) The Township Committee 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.
(2) The Township of Harmony in
the County of Warren, State of New Jersey, does hereby adopt the current
Manual on Uniform Control Devices for Streets and Highways hereafter
known as the "MUTCD," 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 MUTCD while performing such work is in violation of this section.
B. Preconstruction meeting. It shall
be the responsibility of the person, contractor, or in the case of
a public utility as required under the public utility agreement, Section
16:25-9.2, wishing to conduct work on, under or above the street to
contact the Police Department of the Township 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 Township, is in violation of this section.
C. Emergency contact telephone numbers.
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 New Jersey
State Police Department to correct such hazardous condition, the Township
may respond to correct the hazardous condition(s). The reasonable
fees for such emergency services by the Township of Harmony shall
be charged to the person, contractor, or utility responsible for the
condition.
D. Hours. 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. The officer in charge
of the New Jersey State Police 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.
E. Road closing. Road closing and/or
traffic detours shall not be permitted unless approved by the New
Jersey State Police Department.
F. Traffic directors. Traffic directors
shall be posted at all construction or maintenance sites when determined
by the New Jersey State Police Department that same is necessary to
provide for the safe and expeditious movement of traffic.
G. Stop work. The New Jersey State
Police Department shall have the authority to stop work, including
the removal of equipment and vehicles, stored material within the
street right-of-way, backfilling of open excavations and/or related
work, in order to abate any nuisance and/or safety hazard or for any
violation of this section.
H. Site preparation. It is to be
expressly understood that no materials, vehicles or equipment are
to be placed in the roadway or sidewalk or until all construction,
signs, light devices and pavement markings are installed.
I. Violations and penalties.
(1) 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 and 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.
(2) A separate offense shall be
deemed committed on each day during or on which violation occurs or
continues.
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 the streets where temporary "EMERGENCY
NO PARKING" signs are displayed. The New Jersey State Police are 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 section
is contingent upon the signs being erected as required by law.
A. Whenever snow has fallen and
the accumulation is such that it covers the streets and highways,
an emergency shall exist and no vehicle shall be parked on the streets
or highways or portions thereof indicated. The above parking prohibitions
shall remain in effect after the snow has ceased until the streets
have been plowed sufficiently 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.
