Traffic Regulations

Traffic Regulations

The admission of vehicles upon the roads of the cemetery has been permitted as a privilege, but is not a right inherent to the ownership of a lot or otherwise. As a privilege, it is restricted to those persons who observe the traffic rules adopted by the Lorain City Council. Failure to comply with the rules renders the offender liable to arrest. Entrance may be only at an entrance that is maintained by the cemetery as a public entrance. The speed of vehicles is limited to ten (10) miles per hour. Vehicles are not permitted to turn upon roads, but must go around the section when reversing their direction.

Visitors on foot have the primary right to the use of the roads and all vehicle drivers are required to observe this right by careful driving and strict adherence to the rules. Funeral processions must obey these rules also.

Any driver who operates a vehicle upon the lawns, across gutters or elsewhere, causing damage as a result, shall be required to compensate the City of Lorain for such damage. Vehicles shall keep to the right-hand side of the road next to the gutter or lawn.
