The bill directs the allocation of funds from the transportation advancement account specifically for suicide prevention measures on the Washington Avenue Bridge in Minneapolis. It mandates that Hennepin County award a grant of $15,000,000 to the University of Minnesota for the design and construction of suicide barriers, as well as the provision of suicide diversion information resources.

This legislation includes a specific insertion that overrides existing statutes to facilitate the funding for these critical safety measures. The focus is on enhancing mental health support and preventing suicides on the bridge, which is a significant step towards addressing public safety and mental health concerns in the community.
