The bill modifies the appropriation for the construction of an interchange at U.S. Highway 169 and Trunk Highway 282 in Scott County, specifically in the city of Jordan. It appropriates $4,900,000 from the general fund to the commissioner of transportation for the project, which includes accommodations for bicycles and pedestrians, rail grade separation, road work, and public utility relocations. The previous language that specified a grant to Scott County has been removed, indicating a direct appropriation to the commissioner instead. This funding is a one-time appropriation available until June 30, 2027.
Additionally, the bill includes a new effective date provision, stating that the section will take effect the day following final enactment. This ensures that the changes to the appropriation and the project can be implemented promptly after the bill is passed.
