[Adopted 5-5-2023]
Pursuant to C.G.S. § 14-250b, and the recommendation
of the Town of Newtown Police Commission, the following intersections
are designated for special marking that blocking the intersection
is prohibited:
|
Country Club Road and Route 25
|
|
Elm Drive and Route 302
|
|
Newtown High School and Route 34
|
|
Pole Bridge Road and Route 34
|
|
Walnut Tree Hill Road and Church Hill Road
|
The Town of Newtown shall:
A.
Post signs
at each such designated intersection, or request such action from
the State of Connecticut, indicating that blocking the intersection
is prohibited and violators are subject to a fine; and
B.
Mark,
in white paint, the boundary of such intersection with a line not
less than one foot in width and within such boundary line with parallel
diagonal lines not less than one foot in width.
No operator of a motor vehicle, other than a tractor-trailer
unit, as defined in C.G.S. § 14-1, shall proceed into an
intersection that has been designated, posted and marked by the Town
of Newtown in accordance with Connecticut state statutes, except when
making a turn, unless there is sufficient space on the opposite side
of the intersection to accommodate such motor vehicle without obstructing
the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians, notwithstanding the
indication of a traffic control signal that would permit such an operator
to proceed into the intersection.
Any person who violates the provisions of this article shall
have committed an infraction.
Enforcement of this article shall be the purview of state and local law enforcement officers whose jurisdiction contains the intersections designated in § 216-25.
