Route 66 100 year anniversary

Community feedback - Your voice builds the future of Route 66
Help shape the future of Route 66. What you share in these surveys will guide the projects and ideas, improvements and how communities are supported. Your insight truly matters.

Please take a moment to complete one of the surveys below. 

Once the surveys are complete we will: - Compile all responses to identify top challenges and opportunities. - Share results with participants. - Feedback to prioritize projects. - Start launching initiatives that reflect what you said matters most.

A summary of our recent Route 66 feedback form submissions:

- Visitors value unique experiences, local history, and interactions with passionate small business owners.  

​

- Common frustrations include closed shops during posted hours, lack of unique merchandise, poor signage,      and difficulty finding authentic Route 66 stops.

​

- Travelers are motivated to spend more time and money in towns that offer something distinctive, friendly            locals, and well-preserved historic sites.

​

- Many feel that not enough is being done to support and preserve small communities, with suggestions for          more state support, grants for restoration, and better enforcement of building codes.

​

- Respondents want to see more diverse stories told, including those of Native American and Black                     communities, and less focus on generic nostalgia or movie tributes.

​

- There’s a desire for improved infrastructure, such as RV parking, road repairs, and better directions, as well      as more opportunities to buy unique souvenirs and local food.
