AI Summary

This bill requires contractors working for the Department of Transportation (DOT) in Oklahoma to install business access signage when construction projects disrupt normal access to nearby businesses. This signage must clearly guide customers to business entrances and comply with the standards in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, a widely recognized guide for traffic signs and signals. Before starting work, contractors must submit a plan detailing the signage's placement, size, and mounting to the DOT for approval, and the DOT can require changes to ensure safety and compliance. Contractors are responsible for maintaining the signs throughout the project and removing them promptly once access is restored. Failure to comply can result in the DOT withholding payments or imposing daily penalties of $10,000, and the signage must not obstruct official traffic control devices or violate traffic laws. This new requirement will take effect on November 1, 2026.
