This bill designates the overpass of Stelton Road at milepost 5.88 on Interstate Highway Route 287, both northbound and southbound, as the Officer Conklin-Officer Cady Memorial Overpass. This designation honors the memory of Richard H. Conklin and William J. Cady, two South Plainfield police officers who lost their lives in the line of duty three years apart while serving their community. The bill highlights their service as military veterans and police officers, recognizing their dedication and the respect they earned from their peers and the public.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that state or public funds will not be utilized for the production, purchase, or erection of the memorial signs. Instead, the Commissioner of Transportation is authorized to accept gifts, grants, or other financial assistance from private sources to cover these costs. This ensures that the funding for the memorial signs will come from private contributions rather than taxpayer dollars, and work on the signs will only commence once an agreement is established with a responsible party for the associated costs.
