Byway program

PennDOT designates Pennsylvania Byways at the request of local communities seeking to highlight roadways with cultural, historical, recreational, archaeological, scenic, and natural qualities. PennDOT's mission is to support communities and local governments in achieving byway designations and to assist with local planning efforts to maintain byway resource qualities, to protect and preserve visual impacts, to educate residents and visitors, to promote tourism, and to enhance economic development potential throughout the Commonwealth.
