Designates State Highway Route 72 as "Burlington-Ocean Purple Heart Memorial Highway."

This bill designates New Jersey's State Highway Route 72 (from milepost 0 to 28.74) as the "Burlington-Ocean Purple Heart Memorial Highway" to honor military personnel who received the Purple Heart medal for wounds or sacrifice in service. It requires that private donations - not public funds - cover the costs of signs bearing this name, authorizing the Department of Transportation to accept gifts or grants from private groups for sign production and maintenance. The bill specifies that no state funds may be used for these signs and that agreements must be secured with private entities before any work begins. The bill is pending in the Senate Transportation Committee after its January 13, 2026 introduction.
