OAR 734-032-0000
Purpose of and Need for the Scenic Byway Program


Administrative rules OAR 734-032-0000 (Purpose of and Need for the Scenic Byway Program) through 734-032-0070 (Scenic Byway Committee) establish the Scenic Byway Program as authorized by ORS 184.617 (Functions of commission) and 184.619 (Rulemaking authority). The program consists of a multistep process starting with an idea (citizen, special interest group, local, state or federal agency) to designate transportation corridor as an Oregon Scenic Byway and progressively move that idea through a series of reviews culminating, if warranted, in a designation of an Oregon Scenic Byway by the Oregon Transportation Commission and the Oregon Tourism Commission. The program is intended to recognize scenic byways across jurisdictional boundaries, to orient and focus on the tourist or motorist and to show off the best in the way of scenic byways. The stimulus for this program has come from the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991.
