An Act relative to motorcycle parking
This bill requires state agencies and local municipalities to provide reasonable motorcycle parking spaces in all transportation and parking facilities built with public funds (federal, state, or local). It mandates that these spaces be allocated in areas not meeting standard car parking requirements, and prohibits rules or policies that specifically restrict motorcycle access to highways, bridges, or transportation facilities. The bill also bans discriminatory practices in transportation planning, funding, or facility design that target motorcycles, motorcycle operators, or passengers. It directly affects motorcycle riders by ensuring equal access and parking accommodations in publicly funded infrastructure.
