The bill amends section 24-01-01.2 of the North Dakota Century Code, which pertains to the length of the state highway system. The current law stipulates that the state highway system may not exceed seven percent of the entire road mileage of the state, including township, county, or state roads. This specific percentage limitation is being removed from the law.

The revised language establishes that the state highway system shall not exceed a total length of seven thousand seven hundred miles (approximately 12,391.95 kilometers). By eliminating the percentage cap, the bill simplifies the regulation of the highway system's length while maintaining the maximum mileage limit.
