AI Generated Summary

This bill proposes changes to traffic regulations specifically addressing crosswalk placements near roundabouts in Minnesota. It seeks to amend a section (169.06) of the Minnesota Statutes by adding a new rule that prohibits the establishment of crosswalks within 100 feet of a roundabout. However, there are exceptions to this rule: crosswalks that are either controlled by pedestrian signals or were established before the law takes effect can remain until the roundabout or road is reconstructed. This bill has been referred to the Committee on Transportation Finance and Policy for further consideration.
