Infrastructure construction: digital construction management technologies.

Existing law authorizes the Department of Transportation to develop the full potential of all resources and opportunities that are now, and may become, available to the state for meeting California's transportation needs and to plan, design, construct, operate, and maintain those transportation systems that the Legislature has made, or may make, the responsibility of the department. This bill would require the department to develop an implementation plan for the use and integration of digital construction management technologies, as defined, for use on transportation infrastructure projects. The bill would require the implementation plan to include specified milestone goals, including that the department will begin using digital construction management technologies through construction by July 1, 2029. The bill would require the department to submit a report to the Legislature by December 1, 2029, as specified. The bill would repeal these provisions on January 1, 2032.
