AN ACT concerning roads and highways; designating a portion of United States highway 75 as the Brig Gen George H Wark memorial highway; redesignating a current portion of the purple heart/combat wounded veterans highway for United States highway 75; amending K.S.A. 2025 Supp. 68-1051 and repealing the existing section.
AI Summary
This bill designates a specific section of U.S. Highway 75 in Kansas, running from its southern junction with U.S. Highway 166 in Montgomery County down to the Kansas-Oklahoma border, as the Brig. Gen. George H. Wark Memorial Highway, requiring the secretary of transportation to install appropriate signage. Additionally, the bill amends an existing law to redesignate a different portion of U.S. Highway 75, which was previously the Purple Heart/Combat Wounded Veterans Highway extending to the Kansas-Oklahoma border, to now end at the southern junction with U.S. Highway 166, ensuring that this designation for Purple Heart and combat wounded veterans remains on U.S. Highway 75 but shifts its endpoint. The bill also repeals the previous version of the law concerning this highway designation.
