The proposed bill establishes a new county local road program aimed at improving county roads that are not federally classified as arterial or collector roads. It creates a county local road trust account within the motor vehicle fund, which will be used for the preservation and improvement of these roads, as well as for administrative expenses related to the program. The bill outlines the responsibilities of the county road administration board, including adopting rules for fund allocation, selecting projects based on specific criteria such as investment in overburdened communities and environmental health disparities, and ensuring that proposed projects are included in the county's six-year program.

Additionally, the bill specifies the types of projects eligible for funding, such as road reconstruction and pedestrian facilities, and mandates joint planning between county and city officials for projects adjacent to urban areas. It also establishes matching fund requirements for counties receiving funds from the trust account and sets eligibility criteria based on the proper use of road revenues. The bill emphasizes the importance of prioritizing projects that address urgent needs and allows for adjustments in funding allocations based on project evaluations. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, and is deemed necessary for the immediate preservation of public safety and support of state government functions.
