S 10598 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Dedicates a portion of the state highway system to Trooper Gerard B. Kane

This bill designates a specific bridge over the Southern State Parkway in Islip as a memorial to Trooper Gerard B. Kane. The legislation requires the Department of Transportation to install signs honoring the trooper but explicitly states that the bridge's official name will not change. This measure serves as a ceremonial tribute rather than a legal renaming of the infrastructure.
