Bill Summary
AN ACT relating to commercial signs along U.S. Highway 77.
AI Summary
This bill modifies an existing Texas transportation law that restricts the placement of commercial signs along certain highways by specifically changing the boundary markers for U.S. Highway 77. The bill amends Section 391.252(a) of the Transportation Code to replace the reference to State Highway 44 with State Highway 285 as the endpoint for the segment of highway where commercial signs are prohibited. This means that between State Highway 186 and State Highway 285, no new commercial signs can be erected that are adjacent to and visible from the highway. The change appears to be a technical correction to accurately define the highway segment where sign restrictions apply. The bill will take effect on September 1, 2025, giving advance notice to potential sign owners or developers about the updated restriction.
