Bill Summary · SB 518

Legislative bill overview

SB 518 proposed changes to Florida's regulations governing contractors who work on transportation facilities. The bill was filed in February 2025 and referred to multiple committees but died in the Transportation Committee without advancing to a floor vote.

Why is this important

Transportation facility contractor regulations affect project timelines, costs, and safety standards for Florida's roads, bridges, and infrastructure projects. Changes to licensing, bonding, or qualification requirements could impact both public construction budgets and the contracting industry's ability to compete for work.
