Bill > AB891

This bill establishes the Quick-Build Project Pilot Program within the California Department of Transportation's maintenance program, designed to rapidly develop and implement low-cost transportation infrastructure projects. Under this program, the department must create comprehensive guidance for district quick-build projects by December 31, 2027, and commit to funding at least six quick-build projects statewide by December 31, 2028. A "quick-build project" is defined as a short-term infrastructure project that involves minor construction, uses durable but affordable materials, and is intended to be in place for one to five years. The projects can include various types of transportation infrastructure, with a specific focus on bicycle and pedestrian facilities on the state highway system. The pilot program is temporary and will be automatically repealed on January 1, 2030, allowing the state to evaluate its effectiveness and potential long-term implementation during the approximately two-year trial period.
