House Bill 2642 amends the Government Code to provide for the establishment of a program for the designation of Texas historic roads and highways by the Texas Historical Commission and the Texas Department of Transportation. The bill specifies that a historic designation of a road or highway under such a program is not a historic designation under federal law, allows the commission and department to pursue federal funds for the program, and establishes that the department is not required to construct or erect a marker for a designation unless a grant or donation of funds is made to cover the cost.
