Section § 2221
This law is about setting up a program for managing and planning roads in California under a federal highway act from 1987. The law aims to align this program with existing road-related goals in the state. It requires the relevant department to create and share guidelines on how to allocate and manage funds for these road projects. These guidelines don’t have to follow the usual process for government regulations.
The purpose of this chapter is to implement the combined road plan demonstration program, pursuant to Section 137 of the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1987, in this state in a manner compatible and consistent with historic programming goals. The department shall establish and distribute interim guidelines to appropriate local representatives with respect to the programming and management of combined road plan apportionments. The guidelines shall not be subject to Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 11340) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code.

Section § 2223
This law explains how California allocates federal funds received for road projects under the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1987. The state distributes these funds to cities, counties, and urban areas according to specific procedures. Additionally, any funds related to the federal bridge reconstruction and replacement program must be used for bridge projects or other department-approved uses.
Combined road plan apportionments received by this state under the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1987 shall be allocated by the department to city, county, and urbanized areas consistent with procedures established under Chapters 5 (commencing with Section 2200) and 7 (commencing with Section 2350). That portion of combined road plan apportionments attributable to the federal bridge reconstruction and replacement program shall be obligated to bridge construction or other eligible use approved by the department.

Section § 2224
This section establishes a Combined Road Plan Committee to help with transportation planning in California. The committee includes members from various regional, urban, and rural agencies, along with transit representatives, and officials from state and federal departments. It provides guidance on the allocation and use of funds for road planning under a federal demonstration program. The focus is on prioritizing reallocation of funds within the same county if they become available. Local guidelines may be created by county-specific committees.
