Bill > A06643

This bill proposes to dedicate a specific portion of the state highway system in New York to Specialist Jason Johnston. Specifically, the bill designates the section of state route 31-A from its intersection with Powerline Road to its intersection with state route 98 in the town of Albion, Orleans County, as a memorial highway. The New York State Department of Transportation is required to install and maintain signage indicating "Highway Dedicated to Specialist Jason Johnston" along this route. The bill emphasizes that this is a ceremonial dedication, meaning the official route number will not change, and the purpose is to honor Specialist Johnston, likely a military service member. The legislation would take effect immediately upon passage, allowing for prompt recognition of the specialist's service and sacrifice.
