MINOR

This bill amends the Highway Law to dedicate a portion of State Route 202 to Hector L. Soto. The amendment clarifies the route description, adds specific signage requirements, and removes the quoted name formatting from the dedication title.

Scope change

The scope of the dedication was refined to specify the route as 'United States route two hundred two from its intersection with Rosman Road to its intersection with state route forty-five' rather than the previous 'state route two hundred two between Rosman Road and state route forty-five'.

REQUIREMENT

Added a specific requirement that signage must state 'Highway Dedicated to Hector L Soto' to clarify how the dedication will be displayed to the public.

DEFINITION

Changed the route description from 'state route two hundred two' to 'United States route two hundred two' and specified the route boundaries by intersection points rather than just location points.

TECHNICAL

Removed quotation marks around 'Hector L. Soto' in the section title and dedication language, simplifying the text formatting.
