HB 648 Louisiana House · 2024 Regular Session

HIGHWAYS/INTERSTATE: Designates the bridge on Louisiana Highway 648 over Bayou Lafourche as the "Austin Bush Memorial Bridge"

This bill designates the bridge on Louisiana Highway 648 over Bayou Lafourche as the "Austin Bush Memorial Bridge." The legislation directly affects the specific roadway infrastructure by officially naming it in honor of Austin Bush. It achieves this through a simple text amendment that updates the bill's language to include the new name. Once enacted, the change will appear on official state maps and signage for that bridge.
