National Highway Designation Act
|
The National Highway System Designation Act of 1995 (Pub.L. 104-59, 109 Stat. 568) is a United States Act of Congress that was signed into law by President Bill Clinton on November 28, 1995. The legislation designated about 260,000 kilometers (160,955 miles) of roads, including the Interstate Highway System, as the National Highway System.
Aside from designating the National Highway System, the Act served several other purposes, including restoring $5.4 billion in funding to state highway departments, giving Congress the power to prioritize Highway System projects, and repealing all federal speed limit controls.
