This bill proposes the addition of a new section, designated 8-12-28, to the Code of West Virginia, 1931, which will authorize municipalities to place signage on state roads that fall within their jurisdiction and boundaries. The types of signs that municipalities may install include, but are not limited to, speed warning signs and radar-based signs that inform drivers of their current speed.
The intent of this legislation is to enhance local control over road safety measures by allowing municipalities to implement signage that addresses specific traffic concerns within their areas. This change aims to improve public safety and ensure that local governments can effectively communicate important information to drivers on state roads.
