True Grit Trail; Oklahoma Department of Transportation; designating roads as True Grit Trail; signage; online resources; source of funding; effective date.
HB 1411 designates a specific 200-mile route of Oklahoma roads as the "True Grit Trail," requiring the Oklahoma Department of Transportation to install signage along the path connecting towns like Spiro, McAlester, and Robbers Cave State Park. The bill mandates collaboration with the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department to create online resources, including a trail map and historical information about the designated sites. All costs for signage and maintenance must be covered by private funding sources, not state taxpayer dollars. The trail route begins at the Oklahoma-Arkansas border and loops through 15 communities and parks, with signage to guide visitors to these locations.
