Bill > SB365

This bill designates a specific portion of U.S. Route 15 in Snyder County, Pennsylvania, as the "Joseph McGranaghan Memorial Highway" in honor of a notable local public servant and broadcaster. The bill provides extensive background on McGranaghan's life and achievements, highlighting his significant contributions to public service and broadcasting. McGranaghan served as a local elected official in Chambersburg and Shamokin Dam Borough, was the mayor of Shamokin Dam, and had a distinguished career in broadcasting spanning over 30 years, including leadership roles in radio and television. He was instrumental in transportation development, particularly in securing funding for the Routes 11 and 15 bypass project, and was recognized with multiple leadership awards. The bill requires the Department of Transportation to erect and maintain signs displaying the highway's new name along the designated stretch of road, which runs from the interchange with U.S. Routes 11/15 and 522 north of Selinsgrove to the interchange with U.S. Route 15 and Pennsylvania Route 147 south of Winfield. The act will take effect 60 days after its passage.
