Requires DOT to consult Department of Agriculture and County Agriculture Development Boards when developing transportation capital project list.
This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Transportation (DOT) to consult with the Department of Agriculture and local County Agriculture Development Boards when creating the state's annual list of transportation projects. It mandates DOT to develop a specific method for incorporating agricultural transportation needs - like road conditions affecting farm access - into their project evaluation systems. The policy directly affects DOT's project planning process and aims to ensure farming communities' infrastructure needs are considered alongside other transportation priorities. The law takes effect immediately upon passage.
