The bill, H.B. No. 4513, proposes to designate a specific section of Farm-to-Market Road 2360 in Starr County as the "Jose Maria Longoria Sr. Memorial Highway." This designation will apply to the portion of the road between its intersection with Texas Street and its intersection with U.S. Highway 83. The bill adds a new section, Section 225.243, to Subchapter B of Chapter 225 in the Transportation Code, which outlines the designation and states that it is in addition to any other existing designations.
Furthermore, the bill mandates the Texas Department of Transportation to design and construct markers that indicate the highway's new designation and to erect these markers at both ends of the highway as well as at appropriate intermediate locations. The bill also includes a provision to ensure that the newly added sections are renumbered to avoid any duplication of designations. The act is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
