STATEHOUSE – House Bill (HB) 1286 authored by State Representative Holli Sullivan (R-Evansville) has now passed out of both chambers of the Indiana General Assembly.

HB 1286 requires the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT), the Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV), the Indiana Finance Authority and Purdue University to provide annual reports to the Joint Study Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure Assessment and Solutions regarding the condition of Indiana’s transportation network and infrastructure.

“As the Crossroads of America, we need to continue setting a precedence of high standards and constant improvement for our roads and bridges and everything in between. This legislation will help us continue improving Indiana’s transportation systems,” said Rep. Sullivan. 

“The timely, detailed, relevant data gathered from these reports will greatly help the study committee make headway on their endeavors over the interim. Having a top-notch infrastructure system leads to job creation, economic development, and much more.” 

The annual reports will be submitted by August 1 of 2014 and 2015.

This legislation is effective immediately upon enactment.
