Bill Summary

AN ACT relating to the designation of portions of the state highway system as memorial highways, to certain memorial markers on certain highways, and to the installation of highway signs for certain cultural attractions.

AI Summary

This bill makes several changes to highway designations and signage in Texas. First, it modifies rules for memorial highway signs related to motorcycle collision victims, specifying that victims under the influence of alcohol or controlled substances at the time of the collision cannot be memorialized, and requiring the Texas Transportation Commission to develop motorcyclist safety messages for these signs. The bill also designates three specific memorial highways: the Deputy Sheriff David Bosecker Memorial Highway along a portion of U.S. Highway 183 in Eastland County, the Cecil and Dorothy Bell Memorial Highway along a portion of U.S. Highway 79 in Freestone and Leon Counties, and the Hamby-Webb Memorial Highway along a portion of State Highway 315 in Panola County. Additionally, the bill requires the Texas Department of Transportation to install highway signs guiding travelers to the Koreatown District in Northwest Dallas and the Chinatown District in Richardson by September 1, 2026, with the stipulation that these signs must comply with traffic control device guidelines. The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025, and includes provisions for the Texas Transportation Commission to adopt necessary rules by December 1, 2025.
