Municipalities Law.

Practice point: A municipality, on notice of a dangerous traffic condition, may be liable if it does not consider reasonable measures to alleviate the condition, or, if it unjustifiably delays taking action.

Students should note that the municipality has a continuing duty to review its traffic plans.
