 8 § 2. The commissioner of transportation shall provide for the instal-
 9 lation and maintenance of adequate signing of the state highway system
 10 as dedicated pursuant to section one of this act. However, to avoid
 11 confusion and to limit any possible disruption of commerce, the dedi-
 12 cation called for pursuant to section one of this act shall be one of
 13 ceremonial nature and the official name of such bridge shall not be
 14 changed as a result of this act.
 15 § 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
