 9 lation and maintenance of adequate signing of the state highway system

 11 signing shall state "Highway Dedicated to William E Peterson". However,
 12 to avoid confusion and to limit any possible disruption of commerce, the
 13 dedication called for pursuant to section one of this act shall be one
 14 of ceremonial nature and the official name of such highway shall not be
 15 changed as a result of this act.
 16 § 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
