The most scenic byways are designated All-American Roads, which must meet two out of the six intrinsic qualities. The designation means they have features that do not exist elsewhere in the United States and are unique and important enough to be tourist destinations unto themselves. As of January 21, 2021, there are 184 National Scenic Byways located in 48 states (all except Hawaii and Texas). History The NSBP was established under the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991, w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
