If enacted, this bill would amend current statutes regarding the responsibilities of individuals or entities performing work on roads, streets, or highways. Specifically, it would insert a provision allowing these parties to use volunteer retired police officers to maintain a visible police presence at construction sites. This addition aims to enhance safety and visibility at such locations.

Additionally, the bill would make a technical change by clarifying the language surrounding the posting and maintenance of warning signs, signals, markers, and barricades. The phrase "such time as" would be deleted to streamline the text, while the requirement to maintain these safety measures until the work is completed or authorized for removal would remain unchanged. Overall, the bill seeks to improve public safety at construction sites by incorporating retired police officers into the workforce.
