A.
The Mayor is hereby authorized to prohibit parking on highways, or
parts thereof, which are being constructed, repaired or improved,
for a period not to exceed the duration of said construction, repair
or improvement. When, in the opinion of the Mayor, the public safety
does not require the prohibition of parking at all times on such highways,
or parts thereof, being constructed, repaired or improved, the Mayor
is authorized to permit parking for such periods as will not endanger
the public safety. In cases where parking is so prohibited or regulated
by said Mayor, proper signs shall be erected by the Department of
Public Works in accordance with the Acts of Assembly of the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania in such cases made and provided, giving notice of
such prohibition or regulation.
B.
The Mayor and the Public Safety Committee are also hereby authorized
to prohibit parking on any highway, or part thereof, entirely or for
certain hours to be designated by the Mayor and said Committee for
periods not exceeding 60 days as trial periods to study the effect
of parking on movement of traffic within the Borough of Bellevue.
While such trial periods are in effect, proper signs shall be erected
by the Department of Public Works to show that parking is prohibited
or regulated thereon.
C.
The Mayor and the Public Safety Committee are also hereby authorized
to designate any highway, or part thereof, entirely or for certain
hours to be designated by the Mayor and said Committee as a one-way
street for periods not to exceed 60 days for trial periods to study
the effect on the movement of traffic within the Borough of Bellevue.
While such trial periods are in effect, proper signs shall be erected
by the Department of Public Works to show the direction in which traffic
shall flow.
D.
The Mayor and Public Safety Committee are also hereby authorized
to install such other traffic signs, directional signs, stop signs
and the like which will regulate the movement of traffic within the
Borough of Bellevue during trial periods not to exceed 60 days for
the purpose of studying the effect on the movement of traffic within
the Borough of Bellevue.
This chapter does not apply to streets designated as metered
parking areas on which parking meters are installed. Parking in such
areas shall be regulated by the provisions of the ordinances of the
Borough of Bellevue specifically applying to parking in such areas.
