"HIGHWAY OF FALLEN HEROES". ALL THAT PORTION OF THE STATE HIGHWAY SYSTEM
CONSTITUTING ROUTE 20 WITHIN THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL  BE  DESIGNATED

  S  2. The commissioner of transportation shall provide for the instal-
lation and maintenance of adequate signing of the state  highway  system
as  designated  pursuant  to  section one of this act. However, to avoid
confusion and to limit any possible disruption of commerce,  the  desig-
nation  called for pursuant to section one of this act shall be one of a
ceremonial nature and the official name of such  highway  shall  not  be
changed as a result of this act.
  S 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
