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

 13 signing shall state "Bridge Dedicated to the Fallen Skywalkers". Howev-
 14 er, to avoid any confusion and to limit any possible disruption of
 15 commerce, the dedication called for pursuant to section one of this act
 16 shall be one of ceremonial nature and the official name of such bridge
 17 shall not be changed as a result of this act.
