Scenic Highway Designation

The Florida Scenic Highway Program (FSHP) is a grass-roots effort developed to heighten awareness of our State’s historical and intrinsic resources - cultural, historical, archeological, recreational, natural, and scenic - which collectively, enhance the overall traveling experience. Program participation provides subsequent benefits to the community as well, such as resource preservation, enhancement and protection.

The FSHP Mission Statement is, “The Florida Scenic Highways Program will preserve, enhance and maintain the intrinsic resources of scenic corridors through a sustainable balance of conservation and land use. Through community based consensus and partnerships, the program will promote economic prosperity and broaden the traveler’s overall recreational and educational experience.”

The FSHP is funded in part by the Federal Highway Administration and in part by the Florida Department of Transportation. It is a designation only given to select Florida roadways that promote the unique intrinsic characteristics that are native to Florida.
