Byway Overview
When Sunday drives were a novelty and highways had picturesque names instead of numbers, Drivers along the route, which begins in the charming town of Ruston and ends at the Louisiana/Mississippi state line, can drink in vistas of verdant farms and forested landscapes. Swaths of open land give the area a feeling of remoteness, but the byway is also an important route for farmers and loggers.
