Sec. 225.243. SENIOR POLICE OFFICER LEWIS "ANDY" TRAYLOR

MEMORIAL HIGHWAY. (a) The portion of Farm-to-Market Road 969 in

Travis County between its intersection with Decker Lane and its

intersection with U.S. Highway 183 is designated as the Senior

Police Officer Lewis "Andy" Traylor Memorial Highway. The

designation is in addition to any other designation.

appropriate intermediate sites along the highway.

SECTION 2. It is the intent of the 89th Legislature, Regular
