Designates a portion of the state highway system as the "Private Sidney A. Scofield Memorial Highway"
This bill designates a specific stretch of State Route 9-D in Fishkill, Dutchess County, as the "Private Sidney A. Scofield Memorial Highway." The law requires the Department of Transportation to install and maintain signs for this designation while explicitly stating that the official name of the road will not change to prevent confusion or commercial disruption. The act takes effect immediately and serves as a ceremonial tribute rather than altering the functional name or route number of the highway.
