Bill > A03347

This bill dedicates a specific portion of the Long Island Expressway (between Exit 59 and Exit 61) in the town of Brookhaven, Suffolk County, to honor the 9-11 Fallen Firefighters. The New York State Department of Transportation will be responsible for installing and maintaining signs along this stretch of highway that read "Highway Dedicated to 9-11 Fallen Firefighters". Importantly, the bill specifies that this is a ceremonial dedication, meaning the official name of the highway will not change, and the signage is intended to avoid causing confusion or disrupting local commerce. The legislation is primarily symbolic, serving to commemorate the heroic firefighters who lost their lives during the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
