Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. That the Code of Virginia is amended by adding in Article 15 of Chapter 1 of Title 33.1 a section numbered 33.1-223.2:18 as follows:

§ 33.1-223.2:18. Application and installation of traffic control measures.

Nothing in this title shall be construed to prevent the application and installation of traffic control measures to reduce the negative effects of traffic through residential areas on any component of the secondary highway system that meets the definition of "residence district" contained in § 46.2-100, even if such component also provides access to a "business district" as defined in the same section. Installation of traffic control measures on any state-maintained highway shall be approved by the Department prior to installation.
