Summary of Legislation: This bill provides that the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) may

of MUTs, as described in a comprehensive transportation plan, has been approved by the Indiana General
Assembly.
Effective Date: Upon passage.
Explanation of State Expenditures: To the extent INDOT has current and future plans to construct median
U-turns, this bill will result in the delay or cancellation of these plans, depending on the decision of the
General Assembly. Any impact on INDOT workload and expenditures would affect the State Highway Fund
and could potentially make more resources available for other projects.
