Route 66 Designated National Historic Trail; Protecting Private Property Rights.
This law officially designates the historic 2,400-mile Route 66, running from Chicago to Santa Monica, as a National Historic Trail, supporting its preservation and tourism promotion. Crucially for citizens, the law protects landowners along the route: the federal government is explicitly prohibited from using eminent domain or condemnation to acquire land for the trail. Furthermore, the designation does not create new buffer zones or impose new regulatory restrictions on adjacent private properties.
