H.B. No. 5329 amends Section 223.242(d-1) of the Transportation Code regarding design build contracts. The bill reduces the maximum number of contracts that the department can enter into from six to two in each state fiscal biennium. This change aims to streamline the contracting process and potentially enhance the quality of projects by limiting the number of concurrent contracts.

The bill is set to take effect immediately if it receives a two-thirds majority vote from all elected members in both houses of the Texas Legislature. If it does not achieve this majority, the bill will take effect on September 1, 2025.
