This chapter establishes the criteria and procedures to be used by the secretary to designate portions of the state trunk highway system as a scenic byway when the highway corridor possesses unusual, exceptional, or distinctive scenic features.

(2) The purpose of this chapter is to identify, designate, promote and preserve a system of state trunk highways recognized for their outstanding scenic views and ability to offer travelers an exceptional travel experience.
