AN ACT AUTHORIZING BONDS OF THE STATE FOR THE COMPLETION OF A PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE AND UNDERPASS IN THE TOWN OF COLUMBIA.

SB 911 authorizes the state to issue up to $2 million in bonds to fund the completion of a pedestrian bridge over the Hop River and a Flanders Road underpass in the Town of Columbia. The funds will be provided as a grant to the town through the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP). This bill directly affects the Town of Columbia by providing state financial support for a specific infrastructure project aimed at improving pedestrian safety and connectivity. The legislation does not change existing laws but allocates dedicated funding for this defined construction work.
