AI Summary
This bill expands the authority of the Tennessee Department of Transportation to set tolls on certain existing transportation facilities, specifically those that are part of the state highway system or the interstate and national defense highway system, and are located on the border with another state. This new tolling authority would apply if, on or after July 1, 2026, either new vehicle travel lanes are added to the facility or a High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane is converted into a high occupancy user fee lane, meaning a lane where vehicles with multiple occupants are charged a fee. The bill also makes a technical amendment to clarify that "fee or charge" includes "toll" in relevant state code.
