The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is currently accepting nominations, for the first time in over a decade, to the National Scenic Byway program. This exciting development is a result of your successful advocacy for this important national status. As you know, many of your professional colleagues help to preserve and enhance many of our community’s public spaces, including special roadways, but public officials are often not aware of it. So in an effort to celebrate World Landscape Architecture Month we urge you to contact your governor to support your state’s efforts to nominate a roadway to the National Scenic Byways Program. All nominations must be submitted to the U.S. Department of Transportation by May 15, 2020.
