PROTECTING, PRESERVING AND ENHANCING THE BYWAY
The Partnership manages the Byway grounded in its vision, mission and goals.
MISSION
Preserve and enhance this legacy landscape in a manner that is sensitive to the needs of the many private individuals, organizations, and businesses that help shape it.
VISION
Brandywine Valley National Scenic Byway will be the best way to experience the historic, cultural, and scenic qualities of this legacy landscape. Vibrant, pedestrian-friendly villages and urban areas will be an integral part of this landscape. Incentives will be developed to encourage private conservation and preservation actions. The Byway planning effort will guide future public investments for enhancements to the route. A balance between through traffic, local traffic, and tourist traffic will be achieved using traffic calming and context-sensitive highway design that is respectful of pedestrians and bicyclists.
