Golden wants Interstate 278 named for veterans
State senator says, ‘We can never fully repay them’
Motorists driving on Interstate 278 could be seeing new signs along the Brooklyn portion of the roadway if the New York State Assembly passes a bill the state Senate recently approved to name a section of the highway in tribute to military veterans.
State Sen. Marty Golden (R-C-Bay Ridge-Southwest Brooklyn) was the sponsor of a bill to name the Brooklyn portion of Interstate 278 “Brooklyn Veterans Memorial Highway.”
It’s only right that the state designate a piece of public property to honor the men and women who have served the nation in uniform, according to Golden, a member of the Veterans, Homeland Security and Military Affairs Committee.
