 accessing such parkway entrances.
   2.  The  commissioner of transportation may request, and is authorized
 to receive, from any department, division, board, bureau, commission  or
 other agency of the state or any state public authority such information
 and  data  as  will  enable the department of transportation to properly
 conduct its study and make its determination. Such information and  data
 received  by  the  department  of transportation shall be subject to the
 same requirements for confidentiality and limitations on use, if any, as
 are applicable to the use of such information and data  by  the  depart-
 ment,  division,  board, bureau, commission or other agency of the state
 or state public authority which provided such information and data.
   3. For the purposes of this act "commercial motor vehicle" shall  have
 the  same  meaning  as  such term is defined in subdivision 4 of section
 501-a of the vehicle and traffic law, provided that such vehicle is also
 of a height that exceeds  the  clearance  of  bridges  located  on  such
 special parkways.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
