Bill > HB2959

This bill designates a specific portion of Farm-to-Market Road 2275 in Gregg County, Texas, as the "Bill Stoudt Parkway". The designated section runs from its intersection with U.S. Highway 259 to its intersection with Spur 502/Judson Road. The Texas Department of Transportation is required to design and erect markers indicating this new designation, which will be in addition to the road's existing name. The markers will be placed at each end of the designated highway segment and at appropriate intermediate locations. The bill specifies that this designation will take effect on September 1, 2025, and it is intended by the 89th Legislature that the new provision be appropriately renumbered to avoid conflicts with existing legal designations. This type of legislative action is a common way to honor local individuals by naming transportation infrastructure after them.
