HSB 267

Current law delegates to the state transportation commission duties to develop, coordinate, and annually update a comprehensive transportation policy and plan for the state. The commission is required to prepare, adopt, and publish a long-range program for the primary road system. The program is required to be prepared for a period of at least five years and is required to be revised, brought up to date, and republished at least once every year in order to have a continuing five-year program. This bill requires the commission to prioritize the improvement of United States highway and to include in its long-range program plans to expand all portions of the highway consisting of two-lane roadways to four-lane divided roadways until the entire length of the highway is made up of four-lane divided roadways.
