HB 2959 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the designation of a portion of Farm-to-Market Road 2275 in Gregg County as the Bill Stoudt Parkway.

This bill designates a specific stretch of Farm-to-Market Road 2275 in Gregg County as the Bill Stoudt Parkway, honoring an individual with a permanent name change. The legislation requires the state transportation department to install official markers at both ends of the road and at intermediate locations to indicate the new designation. This change is administrative and affects road signage and official records, without altering the road's physical infrastructure or traffic rules. The bill includes a provision for immediate effect if it receives a two-thirds legislative vote, otherwise it takes effect on September 1, 2025.
