LAWRENCE K. GROOMS for Committee.

TO REQUEST THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION NAME THE PORTION OF INTERSTATE HIGHWAY 95 FROM ITS INTERSECTION WITH THE COLLETON/HAMPTON COUNTY LINE TO ITS INTERSECTION WITH THE COLLETON/DORCHESTER COUNTY LINE "TUSKEGEE AIRMEN MEMORIAL HIGHWAY" AND ERECT APPROPRIATE MARKERS OR SIGNS ALONG THIS PORTION OF HIGHWAY THAT CONTAIN THE WORDS "TUSKEGEE AIRMEN MEMORIAL HIGHWAY".

Whereas, the Historical Tuskegee Airmen Memorial is located in Colleton County; and

Whereas, this national landmark is an important treasure of Colleton County and the State of South Carolina; and

Whereas, it would also be fitting and proper to honor the legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen by naming the portion of Interstate Highway 95 in Colleton County from its intersection with the Colleton/Hampton County line to the Colleton/Dorchester County line the "Tuskegee Airmen Memorial Highway". Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina request that the Department of Transportation name the portion of Interstate Highway 95 from its intersection with the Colleton/Hampton County line to its intersection with the Colleton/Dorchester County line "Tuskegee Airmen Memorial Highway" and erect appropriate markers or signs along this portion of highway that contain the words "Tuskegee Airmen Memorial Highway".

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Department of Transportation.
