S 1247 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires DOT to develop common design for signs that indicate historic district or site.

This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Transportation (DOT) to create a standardized design for roadway signs marking historic districts or sites. The signs must include a clear historic symbol (like a flag or icon) showing the relevant time period, event, or war, and follow federal traffic device standards. State agencies replacing existing signs for historic areas must use this new design, ensuring consistency and clearer historical context for travelers. The bill affects how state entities maintain and update these signs, focusing on visual clarity rather than changing historic protections.
