	'''Support.''' ~~Under certain conditions, and within specific guidelines,~~ Missouri highways and bridges ~~may be designated after an individual (deceased 2 years), an event, place, or organization. The 2-~~year ~~waiting period after a death is required by state statute to allow for grieving before memorialization decisions are made~~.		'''Support.''' The Missouri Legislature routinely establishes memorial designations on Missouri’s State highways and bridges each year.

	~~MoDOT will require the family or its designee~~ to ~~provide verification of~~ the ~~honoree’s death. A copy~~ of ~~the death certificate~~ or ~~obituary is an acceptable form of documentation~~.		A highway designated as a memorial is not considered to be a named highway for the purposes of highway signing or road user navigation and orientation.

	Before contacting a member of the General Assembly or completing a MoDOT Application, contact the MoDOT Highway Safety and Traffic Division at (573) 751-7643 or via email at ~~[mailto:~~Memorial.Designations@modot.mo.gov ~~Memorial.Designations@modot.mo.gov]~~ to verify availability of the desired section of highway (two-mile-or-less) or bridge location.		[[903.1 General (MUTCD Chapter 2A) #903.1.20\|EPG 903.1.20]] contains information regarding excessive use of signs. Because memorial names are not official highway names, memorial signing is not essential to providing navigational guidance.

			Under certain conditions, and within specific guidelines, Missouri highways and bridges may be designated after an individual (deceased 2 years), an event, place, or organization. The 2-year waiting period after a death is required by state statute to allow for grieving before memorialization decisions are made.

			MoDOT will require the family or its designee to provide verification of the honoree’s death. A copy of the death certificate or obituary is an acceptable form of documentation.

			Before contacting a member of the General Assembly or completing a MoDOT Application, contact the MoDOT Highway Safety and Traffic Division at (573) 751-7643 or via email at Memorial.Designations@modot.mo.gov to verify availability of the desired section of highway (two-mile-or-less) or bridge location.

	MoDOT can help identify an available roadway. The family or its designee will need to provide a general location (e.g., county, route, crossroad) to assist in their research.
