WILMINGTON — The Selectboard has endorsed the town's application to the state for expanding Route 100's designation as a scenic byway.
According to minutes from Feb. 6, the application is endorsed by towns along the state highway from Stamford through Weston, Readsboro excepted. With the expansion, it would become second longest byway in the state behind the Connecticut River Byway.
Cost to participating towns is approximately $60 for signage, said town Byway Committee member Adam Grinold.
According to the minutes, “There will be little money available for projects, but Vermont will be doing a lot of marketing for the byway.”
Vermont Byways are established from the ground up by local residents taking part in the National Byway program, www.byways.org, funded through the Federal Highway Administration.
