An Act amending the act of June 22, 1931 (P.L.594, No.203), referred to as the Township State Highway Law, adding a route in Dauphin County and a route in York County.
This bill designates specific local roads in Dauphin and York counties as state highways under the Township State Highway Law. It formally adds the Susquehanna Trail in York County and a road in Dauphin County to the state system, with the official transfer occurring after certain road improvements are finished. The legislation also outlines the process for Conewago Township to accept a turn-back of Bowers Bridge Road, requiring the Department of Transportation to notify the state legislature once work is complete. Ultimately, the law updates the statutory list of roads managed by the state, shifting maintenance and oversight responsibilities from local townships to the Commonwealth.
