Pages : 84
Book Description
There are a number of programs at local, regional, state, and federal levels to identify scenic byways. If a community regards a roadway as a special resource, there are good reasons to work toward some kind of official designation. Doing so allows the community to protect and promote its unique qualities. An important part of that process is to create a plan to balance factors like development, conservation, tourism, and economic uses of the land along the byway. This guidebook is designed to help a community to successfully maneuver through the steps of that process. There are six intrinsic criteria for scenic byway designation.
