What is the National Scenic Byways Program?
Under the National Scenic Byways Program, the US Secretary of Transportation recognizes those roads that are outstanding examples of scenic, historic, recreational, cultural, archeological and/or natural qualities by designating them as either National Scenic Byways or All-American Roads. FHWA markets these routes to the public. The program covers public roads and highways and is a voluntary effort. More information is available at the program website, accessible at www.byways.org.
