The proposed bill, if enacted, would update current statutes by appropriating $10,400,000 from the state General Fund for fiscal year 2026-2027 specifically for safety improvements on U.S. Route 70, between Mile Post 255 and Mile Post 301. This appropriation is a new insertion into the existing legal framework, which currently does not specify funding for these improvements.

Additionally, the bill includes a new provision that states the act will become effective on the general effective date. This insertion clarifies the timeline for the implementation of the appropriated funds, while the existing statutes regarding the Arizona Department of Transportation's responsibilities remain unchanged.
