NY S02714

Amends Highway Law Section 331 to require complete street design features be considered in planning, design, construction, reconstruction, and rehabilitation of state, county, and local transportation projects that receive federal and state funding.

Expands the scope of projects subject to complete street design requirements to include resurfacing, maintenance, and pavement recycling activities, which were previously excluded.

Modifies the criteria for exemptions by clarifying that lack of need must be "demonstrated" based on factors including land use, traffic volumes, population density, and community support.

Takes effect immediately upon enactment but does not apply to transportation projects undertaken or approved before the bill becomes law.
