This bill amends the Michigan Memorial Highway Act to designate specific portions of highway M-60 in Jackson County with memorial names honoring veterans. The bill introduces several new sections that specify the names and boundaries of these memorial highways.
Specifically, the section outlines that the segment of M-60 starting at Fairway Drive and extending to Emerson Road will be named the "Sergeant Matthew R. Soper Memorial Highway." The stretch from Emerson Road to North Cross Road will be designated as the "WWII Veterans Lynford Graham, Melvin King, and Vernon Smalley Memorial Highway." Additionally, the section from North Cross Road to North Main Street will be known as the "Vietnam War Veterans Timothy Ballinger, Robert Jenks, and James Morgan Memorial Highway," and the portion from North Main Street to Van Wert Road will be named the "Operation Iraqi Freedom Veteran Donald Wheeler Jr. Memorial Highway."
