MODERATE
The bill was amended to shift focus from a standalone biennial report on infrastructure condition to a comprehensive, updated statewide master transportation plan. This change aligns the legislation with federal requirements and mandates a longer-term strategic approach rather than just a periodic status update.
Scope change
The bill's scope expanded from a specific reporting requirement to a broader mandate for creating and updating a long-range comprehensive master plan that integrates various federal and state planning documents.
REQUIREMENT

Replaced the requirement to submit a separate biennial twenty-year capital needs assessment with a mandate to formulate and update a comprehensive statewide master plan every five years.

Added specific requirements to include forecasts of pavement and bridge conditions and to consider the most recent federal and state long-range transportation plans.

TIMELINE

Changed the submission deadline from March 31st to September 1st and updated the target year for the initial plan to 2027.

SCOPE

Broadened the plan's scope to explicitly include bicycle and pedestrian facilities and to exclude certain mass transportation facilities under specific authorities from the department's jurisdiction.
