Reyes Bill to Protect Lives on Freeway Overpasses Heads to Governor's Desk

SB 800 was introduced after the City of Rancho Cucamonga tragically lost two young lives to suicide last year. This bill requires Caltrans to consider and implement design features on freeway overpasses that would deter suicide attempts. Such design features may include barriers, fencing, and other infrastructure. Preventative measures like SB 800 are critical to ensuring similar situations will not occur in the future.
