Bill Summary
Amends the Illinois Highway Code. Allows a unit of local government to place a blue reflective pavement marker on any highway, street, or road to mark the location of a fire hydrant or water supply. Prohibits a unit of local government from placing a blue reflective pavement marker on a State highway unless it first obtains an encroachment permit from the Department of Transportation.
AI Summary
This bill allows local governments to install blue reflective pavement markers on roads to indicate the location of fire hydrants or water supplies, with the restriction that these markers can only be used for this specific purpose. However, before placing such a marker on a state highway, a local government must obtain an encroachment permit from the Department of Transportation, which is the state agency responsible for managing state highways. This new rule does not apply to freeways or freeway ramps.
