About the Red Clay Valley Scenic Byway
And from WILMAPCO ~The Red Clay Valley Scenic Byway is a series of 28 roads in northern Delaware, offering views of rolling hills, upland forest, meandering creeks and pastoral flood plains, roughly located between Routes 48 and 52. Its 2008 Corridor Management Plan established a vision, mission, goals and guiding principles for the Byway.CMP Vision Statement: “To ensure the preservation and conservation of the irreplaceable resources that together form the Red Clay Valley and its Scenic Byway.”CMP Mission Statement: “To support enhancement and restoration efforts, where needed, to continually improve the values of the Byway’s identified scenic, natural and historic qualities.”CMP Goals speak to conserving intrinsic qualities; encouraging context sensitive design that respects the scale and character of surroundings and minimizes change to intrinsic qualities; balancing transportation and safety needs in a manner that respects intrinsic qualities; and protecting resources, while recognizing the needs and interests of stakeholders, landowners, organizations and businesses.Guiding Principle: Protect and enhance the Intrinsic Qualities of the Byway.
