This bill modifies the appropriation for the construction of an interchange at U.S. Highway 169 and Trunk Highway 282 in Scott County, specifically amending Laws 2023, chapter 68, article 1, section 17, subdivision 10. The bill appropriates $4,900,000 from the general fund to the commissioner of transportation for the construction of the interchange, which will include 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, and this appropriation is a one-time allocation available until June 30, 2027.

Additionally, the bill authorizes the commissioner of transportation to install lighting for the Shakopee identification sign located on the active transportation bridge over U.S. Highway 169 near the interchange with Trunk Highway 101. The city of Shakopee will be responsible for the costs associated with the installation and maintenance of this lighting. Both sections of the bill will take effect the day following final enactment.
