Requires DOT to study ability of each public highway to accommodate additional weight of electric vehicles.

This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Transportation (DOT) to study whether all public highways (including roads, bridges, and expressways) can safely handle the heavier weight of electric vehicles (EVs), including plug-in hybrids. Within six months, the DOT must examine each highway to determine its current capacity for EV weight, recommend improvements, and rank highways from least to most capable of accommodating this additional weight. The DOT must then report findings and the ranked list to the Governor and Legislature, and prioritize highway projects in the Annual Transportation Capital Program that address the weakest roads. Additionally, any highway project receiving state funding must include a certification that the project will enable the road to support EV weight.
