HB 2494 Pennsylvania House · 2023-2024 Regular Session

An Act designating a bridge, identified as Bridge Key 52786, carrying Pennsylvania Route 213 over the Neshaminy Creek in Lower Southampton Township, Bucks County, as the Ensign Sarah Mitchell Memorial Bridge.

This bill designates a specific bridge in Bucks County as the Ensign Sarah Mitchell Memorial Bridge to honor a local woman who died in the line of duty while serving in the U.S. Navy. The legislation officially names the structure, which carries Pennsylvania Route 213 over Neshaminy Creek, after Ensign Sarah Joy Mitchell, a 2018 graduate of Neshaminy High School who passed away in 2018. To implement this change, the bill requires the Department of Transportation to install and maintain signs displaying the new name for traffic traveling in both directions. The act is set to take effect 60 days after being signed into law.
