[1982 Code § 212-2; New]
All former traffic ordinances of the Borough of Little Ferry are hereby repealed, and all ordinances or parts of ordinances in conflict with or inconsistent with the provisions of this chapter are hereby repealed, except that this repeal shall not affect or prevent the prosecution or punishment of any person for any act done or committed in violation of any ordinance hereby repealed prior to the taking effect of this chapter.
When 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 and 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 force performing these operations.
The Borough of Little Ferry, in the County of Bergen, 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 or 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.
It shall be the responsibility of the person, contractor, or in the case of a public utility as required under a public utility agreement, wishing to conduct work on, under or above the street to contact the Police Department of the Borough of Little Ferry and arrange a preconstruction meeting in order to 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 is in violation of this section.
The person, contractor, or utility shall provide the Police Department with at least two (2) 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 the hazardous condition. The reasonable fees for such emergency services by the Borough shall be charged to the person, contractor, or utility responsible for such condition.
[New; Ord. No. 1347-02-12]
There shall be no construction, maintenance operations, or utility work on any roadway in the Borough before the hour of 8:00 a.m. or after 4:00 p.m. The Officer in charge of the Police Department may adjust this time limit to permit work prior to 8:00 a.m. or after 4:00 p.m. If the Officer in charge determines that the construction or maintenance operations prior to 8:00 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 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
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 safe and expeditious movement of traffic.
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, light devices and pavement markings are installed.

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.
