Enrolled Bill Summary

House Bill 2905 amends the Transportation Code to allow the Texas Department of Transportation, on the new authority transferred from the Texas Transportation Commission, to award contracts for erecting and maintaining specific information logo signs, major shopping area guide signs, and major agricultural interest signs at locations along highways. In entering into a contract, which may be determined by competitive bidding, competitive sealed proposals, or open market contracts, the department must make a written award of a contract to the offeror whose proposal offers the best value for the state.
