A bill to direct the Secretary of Transportation to work with the State of New York to ensure that a segment of Interstate Route 86 in the vicinity of Corning, New York, is designated as the "Amo Houghton Bypass".
Summary
This bill proposes to rename a specific three-mile stretch of Interstate 86 in the Southern Tier of New York as the "Amo Houghton Bypass." The designated area is located between Painted Post and Corning, specifically spanning the interchanges with New York State Routes 15 and 414.
If enacted, the Secretary of Transportation would work with New York state officials to update highway signage to reflect the new name in honor of Amo Houghton, a long-serving former U.S. Representative from the region. For local residents and travelers, the primary impact would be the installation of new commemorative markers along this portion of the highway.
