House Bill No. 130 proposes to redesignate the elevated portion of Interstate 220 in Caddo Parish, Louisiana, specifically from South Lakeshore Drive to Hilry Huckaby III Avenue, as the "American Legion Post No. 14 Memorial Bridge." This bill aims to honor the contributions of the American Legion Post No. 14 by providing a formal name for this section of the highway.
The bill also directs the Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) to erect and maintain appropriate signage that reflects this new designation. However, the implementation of this signage is contingent upon the receipt of local or private funds that cover the DOTD's actual costs for materials, fabrication, mounting posts, and installation, with a maximum expenditure of $2,250 per sign. Additionally, the bill includes an amendment that specifies the inclusion of "Memorial Bridge" in the name of the redesignation.
