Updated Route 100 Scenic Byway Corridor Management Plan
- Details
Scenic Route 100 Byway is located in south-central Vermont. Running along the east edge of the Green Mountains, this 138 mile byway has a wide range of historic, cultural, scenic, natural and recreational resources. Recognized by Yankee Magazine as one of “the most scenic drives in New England” and part of Vermont’s “Skiers Highway” which connects some of the best skiing and riding opportunities in the northeast. From the Town of Stamford, on the VT/MA boarder to the Town of Granville, this byway now includes 20 towns. This is now Vermont’s second largest Byway, behind the Connecticut River Byway, crisscrossing along the spine of the Green Mountain from the Mad River Byway to the Massachusetts’s border. This has been a wonderful grassroots effort resulting from the joint partnerships of town representatives, various Chambers of Commerce, Regional Planning Commissions, and supportive businesses along Route 100..
The Town of Readsboro supports the Route 100 Scenic Byway and is requesting to be a part of it. Below is a link to the updated Route 100 Scenic Byway Corridor Management Plan. There will be an upcoming Public Hearing with the Scenery Preservation Council to review letters of support, take public comment and support with the purpose of making a recommendation to the Transportation Board to include the Town of Readsboro into the Route 100 Scenic Byway. Feel free to call Matt, x120, with any questions.
