Traffic controls for street and highway construction and maintenance operations; adoption of the "Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways." The Borough of Northvale Mayor and Council find and declare 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 for the work forces performing these operations.

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 Northvale, is in violation of this section.
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 of Northvale may respond to correct the hazardous condition(s).
