Oakmont Police Enforce Turning Restrictions

Oakmont police are urging motorists to follow traffic rules when is comes to turning restrictions.

Police Chief David DiSanti said officers have stepped up patrols in the areas of Wade Lane and Advance Way.

Motorists are prohibited to make a right turn onto Wade Lane from Hulton Road, and DiSanti said officers have been issuing citations in the area for those who don't obey the traffic law.

"It's a danger to the children in the area and causes congestion at the traffic light," he said.

Officers also are enforcing no left turns from Advance Way onto Allegheny Avenue. Borough council approved a 60-day trial last month, and signs already have been installed, DiSanti said.

The trial ends Jan. 27.
