What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Transportation (DOT), county highway

committees, and local authorities may, in accordance with standards and procedures

adopted by DOT, designate no-passing zones on highways under their respective

jurisdictions and may mark the zones with signs and pavement markings. Under

this bill, a city, village, or town may also designate no-passing zones on state trunk

highways within the city, village, or town boundary without regard to any standards

or procedures adopted by DOT and may mark the zones with signs and pavement

markings.
