appropriation; State Route 347; widening
HB 2557 appropriates $16,291,610 from Arizona's state general fund for fiscal year 2025-2026 to the Department of Transportation. The funds are specifically designated to widen and improve State Route 347 between Interstate 10 and the city of Maricopa. This project directly affects drivers and local communities along that corridor by expanding the highway infrastructure. The bill creates no new regulations or requirements - its sole mechanism is the allocation of funds for this physical improvement project.
