Full Notification

As Halloween falls at the beginning of a weekend this year, we expect higher than normal foot traffic this afternoon into this evening.  The Cranford Police Department warns motorists of the following:

• OBEY ALL PARKING PROHIBITIONS. 
  • If you are visiting an area, do not park within 25' of an intersection or crosswalk, within 10' of a fire hydrant, or within 50' of a stop sign.  Violations will be strictly enforced.
• USE EXTREME CAUTION WHILE DRIVING, ESPECIALLY IN RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS. 
  • As this is a weekday, normal commuting will occur especially into the afternoon and evening hours.  Watch for young pedestrians crossing the roadway.
• PARENTS - ADVISE YOUR CHILDREN TO CROSS AT CROSSWALKS AND INTERSECTIONS - NOT MIDBLOCK.
  • Ensure that Halloween Costumes worn by your children do not block their full vision.
• WHEN WALKING, STAY ON SIDEWALKS.
  • If there are no sidewalks, keep to the side of the road and, when possible, walk against traffic along the curbing.
