Sec. 14-311b. Traffic controls for certain parking areas and commercial establishments. The State Traffic Commission, in cooperation and agreement with local
traffic authorities, may, in any parking area for twenty or more vehicles or for any
commercial establishment having an exit or entrance on or abutting or adjoining any
state highway, establish traffic controls by signal or device, for access to and egress
from and for traffic within such parking area or commercial establishment. The traffic
authority of any city, town or borough may establish similar controls for parking areas
for twenty or more vehicles or for any commercial establishment having an exit or
entrance on or abutting or adjoining any highway under their jurisdiction. The owner
or operator of any parking area or commercial establishment where such traffic controls
have been established, pursuant to this section, shall erect and maintain the necessary
uniform traffic control signals or devices, which shall conform to the specifications
of the manual of uniform traffic control devices established under this chapter and as
approved and revised by the State Traffic Commission, provided no traffic control signal
or device shall be installed, operated or maintained until a permit for such installation,
operation or maintenance has been procured from the State Traffic Commission.
