Minnesota HF3169 mandates the study and implementation of suicide prevention measures on bridges.

Minnesota HF3169 requires the commissioner of transportation to study and implement suicide prevention methods for bridge construction and reconstruction. The study must identify bridges with a history of suicide incidents or significant risk, evaluate prevention barriers, and assess costs. The commissioner must develop criteria for incorporating prevention barriers into bridge projects, identify funding sources, and seek input from stakeholders. The commissioner must report on the implementation of these methods every two years. The bill appropriates $750,000 for this study and planning.
