HB 26-1071

signed

Local Government Vehicle Identification System on Interstate Highways

Plain-English Summary

AI-generated

House Bill 26-1071 changes Colorado law to allow local governments like cities and counties to install automated vehicle identification systems (AVIS) on federal interstate highways within their boundaries. Previously, only the state could place such systems on these roads. The bill has been signed into law, meaning that local authorities now have the permission to set up these systems for traffic management or other purposes along interstate highways in their areas.

Official Summary

Current law allows the state to locate an automated vehicle identification system (AVIS) on a highway that is part of the federal interstate highway system but prohibits a county, city and county, or municipality (local government) from doing so. The bill authorizes a local government city and county or municipality to locate an AVIS on a highway that is part of the federal interstate highway system.(Note: Italicized words indicate new material added to the original summary; dashes through words indicate deletions from the original summary.)(Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.)
