The bill proposes an amendment to Chapter 42-13 of the General Laws, specifically adding a new section that mandates the Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) to restore, reconstruct, and refurbish the Stone Bridge abutment in Portsmouth. The Stone Bridge abutment, along with the adjacent Teddy's Beach property, is state-owned and controlled by RIDOT. The abutment suffered erosion and collapse in 2019, leading to its closure for public safety reasons. The bill requires RIDOT to actively seek federal, state, and other public funding sources to finance the repair work.

Additionally, the bill instructs RIDOT to collaborate with the Division of Parks and Recreation within the Department of Environmental Management to establish a program for cleaning, maintaining, and managing Teddy's Beach. The bill also contemplates the potential future transfer of the Stone Bridge abutment and Teddy's Beach property to the town of Portsmouth. The act would become effective immediately upon passage. There are no deletions from the current law mentioned in the provided text.
