FREE ESTIMATES ~~ Some ee genet eeeanh esos NEW SIGNS designate a state scenic highway south of Sacramento. The route includes sections of Highways 84 and 160 and the yellow and blue poppy signs indicate the scenic values of this highway along the Sacramento River will be protected. Effect of Sacramento scenic route explained Colorful. new. yellow and blue highway signs picturing the California poppy have been mounted on a 45-mile stretch of state highway in southern Sacramento county, according to District Highway Engineer W. L. Warren. Warren said the new markers officially designate the first scenic highway in the county. It extends from the Antioch Bridge to the south city limits of Sacramento. Similar scenic highways have been discussed in Nevada county, but none has been adopted yet, This route follows the Sacramento River, crossing over bridges at Isleton and Courtland, and includes sections of Highways 84 and 160. The Sacramento County Board of Supervisors and Chief of Highways and Bridges for the county, Dee W. McKenzie, initiated the action which qualifies this highway as an official: scenic highway. Purpose of the scenic designation, Warren said, is to conserve and protect the natural beauty along the river route. Local jurisdictions, he explained, agree to regulate land use outside the right-of-way. This includes enforcement of billboard regulations and control of land uses within the scenic corridor. The highway division, in turn, guarantees protection and enhancement of scenic values of the highway. This is done by applying certain standards of design and protection. Future development of a state scenic highway could include areas set aside for parks and vista points, the highway engineer said. A master plan for California's scenic highway system was established by the Legislature in 1963 and comprises about 6000 miles of highways in the state. However, a local ordinance and official action by the county is necessary before a highway can be officially designated and marked with new signs, Warren said.
