Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the highway law, in relation to establishing the "Fallen Skywalkers Memorial Bridge"

AI Summary

This bill establishes the "Fallen Skywalkers Memorial Bridge" in Buffalo, Erie County, New York, by designating a specific portion of the state highway system. The bridge is located on Route 5, spanning from Fuhrmann Boulevard on the south end to the intersection with Church Street and Delaware Avenue on the north end. The bill requires the commissioner of transportation to install and maintain appropriate signage for the memorial bridge, while explicitly stating that this is a ceremonial designation and will not officially change the bridge's existing name or disrupt local commerce. The purpose appears to be to honor and commemorate a group or individuals known as the "Fallen Skywalkers" by giving their name to this significant infrastructure landmark in Buffalo. The bill will take effect immediately upon passage.
