Bill > SCR9

This resolution establishes the Commission on Interstate 70 Safety and Beautification, a multi-stakeholder group composed of key legislative and local government representatives, including the chairs of the Senate and House transportation committees, members of the Missouri Municipal League and Missouri Association of Counties, and members of the Scenic Byways Advisory Committee. The Commission's primary purpose is to conduct a comprehensive study and develop recommendations for the Missouri Department of Transportation and the General Assembly regarding strategies to improve the safety, visual appeal, and scenic character of Interstate 70. Specifically, the Commission will explore potential enhancements through reasonable landscaping, sign control, and improvements to highway, bridge, and lighting design standards. The resolution also instructs the Secretary of the Missouri Senate to prepare an official copy of the resolution for the Department of Transportation director and mandates that the resolution be sent to the Governor for potential approval or rejection in accordance with the Missouri Constitution.
