The U.S. Department of Transportation recently approved the Battle Road Scenic Byway as an All-American Road as part of the 2021 designations to America’s Byways through the Federal Highway Administration National Scenic Byways Program.
This designation, which constitutes Route 2A, Massachusetts Avenue, is the first All-American Road in Massachusetts. The designation accounts for evidence of intrinsic qualities, demonstration of national or regional significance, overall visitor’s experience and demonstration of long-term sustainability. With this designation comes recognition of the lasting importance of the events of April 1775 in the Greater Boston region.
