AN ACT RELATING TO HIGHWAYS -- CROOK POINT BRIDGE AUTHORITY ACT

Summary

The bill establishes an independent public corporation, the Crook Point Bridge Authority, to acquire, maintain, and redevelop the historic Crook Point Bascule Bridge and surrounding property. A three‑member board appointed by the Providence mayor will oversee its operations, and the authority is exempt from state taxes and its debts are not the city’s responsibility. This gives the city a dedicated entity to manage the bridge’s future without direct municipal funding.
