S 3509 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to renaming the bridges of the state highway system after New York state's medal of honor recipients

This bill (S 3509) would create a plan to ceremonially rename New York State bridges after the state's Medal of Honor recipients. The plan requires bridges to be renamed as close as feasible to the recipients' homes and includes installing/maintaining signage according to a schedule. Crucially, it specifies the renaming would be purely ceremonial - official bridge names would not change, avoiding disruption to commerce or navigation. The bill directly affects state highway bridges and honors Medal of Honor recipients' legacies through signage. It is procedural, focusing on naming conventions rather than substantive policy changes.
