HB 4880 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to sign requirements for construction or maintenance work zones.

HB 4880 requires the Texas Department of Transportation to remove or mandate removal of speed limit restriction signs in construction or maintenance work zones within three business days after work concludes or is temporarily paused. This directly affects road crews, contractors, and drivers by ensuring temporary speed limits are updated promptly when work ends. The key provision sets a clear 72-hour deadline for sign removal after work completion or suspension, preventing outdated restrictions. The bill aims to improve traffic flow and safety by aligning signage with current road conditions.
