Designates a portion of the highway system the "Fort Hamilton Veterans Memorial Highway"
This bill designates a specific stretch of Interstate 278 in Brooklyn, running from the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge to 6th Avenue, as the "Fort Hamilton Veterans Memorial Highway." The legislation requires the Department of Transportation to install and maintain signs for this honorary title while explicitly stating that the official legal name of the highway will not change to prevent confusion. The act takes effect immediately and serves as a commemorative measure rather than altering the functional name or operation of the road.
