Bill > LD923

This bill modifies existing Maine state law regarding supplemental guide signs on interstate highways by removing specific location and enrollment requirements for colleges and universities. Previously, a college or university could only appear on a highway sign if it was located within 15 miles of an exit and had at least 300 students attending classes on-site, or if it had at least 1,000 students attending classes on-site. The proposed changes eliminate these restrictions, which means more colleges and universities in Maine would be eligible to have supplemental guide signs on the interstate highway system, potentially making it easier for travelers to locate and navigate to educational institutions. The bill aims to provide more flexible signage options for higher education institutions across the state, regardless of their proximity to exits or exact student enrollment numbers.
