State highways in California(list • pre-1964) History • Unconstructed • Deleted • Freeway • Scenic

The State Scenic Highway System in California is a special group of roads. Most of these are state highways. The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has chosen them for their beautiful views.

These scenic highways are easy to spot. They have signs with the California poppy, which is the state flower. State-maintained scenic highways have a poppy inside a rectangle. County scenic roads have a poppy inside a pentagon.

The California State Legislature decides which state highways can become scenic. These roads are listed in the Streets and Highways Code. For a highway to be officially called scenic by Caltrans, local governments must help. They need to create a plan to protect the beautiful areas along the road. This plan limits new buildings, outdoor ads, and big digging projects. Caltrans then checks if the road meets all the rules.

Any county road with amazing views can also become scenic. The county in charge must follow the same steps as for state highways.

California's Historic Parkways: Roads from the Past

California Historic Parkways are a special part of the State Scenic Highway System. These roads are defined in the Streets and Highways Code. To be a historic parkway, a road must have been built before 1945. It also needs to be important for history. Caltrans or the Office of Historic Preservation decides this.

These parkways cannot have too much traffic. They must also be next to parks, Native American lands, or other open spaces. This includes green areas, nature preserves, or places used for history or fun.
