The bill amends existing laws concerning the Rebuilding Oklahoma Access and Driver Safety Fund by increasing the total apportionment to $640 million for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2026, and for each fiscal year thereafter. It also removes certain restrictions on the fund's expenditures and clarifies the budgeting process for the Department of Transportation. Additionally, the bill requires the Department to notify key state officials if any projects are delayed or removed from its Eight-Year Construction Work Plan.

In addition to the amendments to the existing fund, the bill establishes the Weight Stations and Ports of Entry Fund, which will be a continuing fund not subject to fiscal year limitations, with an allocation of $20 million for fiscal years 2027 through 2033. It also introduces a new requirement for the filing of specific documents with the Director of the Office of Management and Enterprise Services for approval and payment, emphasizing the importance of this process for public order and safety. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2026, but also declares an emergency situation for immediate implementation upon passage and approval.
