SB 53 Michigan Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Highways: memorial; portion of US-8; designate as the "Medio J. Bacco Memorial Highway". Amends 2001 PA 142 (MCL 250.1001 - 250.2092) by adding sec. 15b.

SB 53 designates a specific portion of US-8 highway - from the Wisconsin border north to the intersection with US-2 in Norway - as the "Medio J. Bacco Memorial Highway." This bill amends Michigan's memorial highway act to add this naming designation, which directly affects the highway corridor and its signage. The provision requires state highway markers to display the memorial name once enacted. As a commemorative resolution, it does not create new policy or affect regulations.
