Sustainable Highways Innovation Act

This bill specifies that alternative fueling infrastructure, renewable energy generation facilities, electrical transmission and distribution infrastructure, and broadband infrastructure and conduits are utility facilities for purposes of accommodations within a right-of-way on a federal-aid highway. The bill also encourages states to implement certain vegetation management practices (e.g., increased mowing heights and planting pollinator-friendly habitats) along such rights-of-way.
