Highway Designation Changes
HB 266 designates a specific segment of Route 198 in Utah County - from Main Street in Payson to Main Street in Santaquin - as the "Sgt. Billy D. Hooser Memorial Highway." The bill requires Utah's Department of Transportation to update official highway maps to reflect this name and install commemorative signs along the route. This is a commemorative naming bill with no funding or policy changes beyond the highway designation. It takes effect on May 6, 2026, and directly affects the identified highway segment in Utah County.
