How the Connecticut River Byway came to
be
In 1999, the States of Vermont and New
Hampshire gave official stamp to years of planning
by designating a bi-state route for the new
Connecticut River Scenic Byway along New England's
largest river. Their goals:
- to balance the preservation, promotion,
enjoyment, and stewardship of the Connecticut
River Valley
- to link people, organizations, communities,
and agencies in promotion of the Connecticut
River Byway as a tourism asset

Connecticut
River Byway Council
Members from a variety of interests within
the Connecticut River Valley have formed a council
to share decisions on promotion, preservation, and
the future of the Byway.
