§ 1009. Restrictions of controlled-access roadway
(a) The Traffic Committee by resolution or order entered in its minutes may regulate or
prohibit the use of any controlled-access highway by any class or kind of traffic
that is found to be incompatible with the normal and safe movement of traffic.
(b) The Traffic Committee adopting any such prohibition shall erect and maintain official
traffic-control devices on the controlled-access highway on which such prohibitions
are applicable and when these are in place, no person shall disobey the restrictions
stated on such devices.
(c) The Traffic Committee may authorize the stopping of a school bus on a controlled-access
highway to pick up or discharge passengers, except the Traffic Committee may only
authorize the stopping of a school bus on the Dwight D. Eisenhower National System
of Interstate and Defense Highways if, after a traffic and engineering study, it determines
that there is no viable alternative and that adequate safety for the passengers, school
bus, and other highway users can be maintained. (Added 1971, No. 258 (Adj. Sess.), § 3, eff. March 1, 1973; amended 1981, No. 9; 2021, No. 20, § 238; 2021, No. 105 (Adj. Sess.), § 417, eff. July 1, 2022.)
