This bill amends Section 100 of P.L.1951, c.23 (C.39:4-191.1) to grant the Commissioner of Transportation the authority to permit the painting of a blue line between double yellow centerline markings on public roads. This action can be taken at the discretion of the Commissioner, notwithstanding existing regulations regarding road markings. The bill also clarifies that the term "highway" will be defined as per R.S.39:1-1 for the purposes of this new provision.
The bill aims to provide flexibility in road marking practices, allowing for the addition of a blue line, which may serve specific purposes such as indicating a particular zone or designation on the road. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
