If enacted, this bill would update current statutes by appropriating $150,000 from the state General Fund for fiscal year 2026-2027 specifically to the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT). This funding is intended for a study that will assess financing mechanisms for new development aimed at supporting regional and statewide transportation infrastructure along U.S. Route 60 and State Route 303.

The bill introduces new language that specifies the appropriation and purpose of the funds, which is not currently included in the existing statutes. The current law remains unchanged, but the new provisions will enhance ADOT's ability to evaluate and improve transportation infrastructure financing in the specified areas.
