A 9263 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Dedicates a portion of the state highway system to 2LT Edward Dixon Neal

This bill ceremonially dedicates a specific bridge on New York State Route 20A over Tonawanda Creek (bridge number 1016130, in Sheldon, Wyoming County) to 2LT Edward Dixon Neal. It requires the transportation commissioner to install signage reading "Bridge Dedicated to 2LT Edward Dixon Neal" but explicitly states this is purely ceremonial and does not change the bridge's official name. The dedication affects the physical bridge location and its signage, with no impact on highway naming or commerce. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.

MINOR
The bill text was updated to reflect its progression through the legislative process, including a recommitment to the Transportation Committee. The substantive language regarding the dedication of a specific bridge to 2LT Edward Dixon Neal was modified to improve clarity by removing redundant references to 'New York' and adding descriptive phrases like 'which crosses over' to better define the location.
TECHNICAL

The bill header was updated to show the bill was amended, reprinted, and recommitted to the Committee on Transportation in accordance with Assembly Rule 3.

The dedication clause for the bridge on state route 20A was rewritten for clarity, removing 'New York' before 'state route' and inserting 'which crosses over' to explicitly describe the bridge's relationship to Tonawanda Creek.
