Schoodic National Scenic Byway Visitor Experience Survey

We are updating the Corridor Management Plan (CMP) for the Schoodic National Scenic Byway—a long-range plan that helps guide improvements, protect scenic and cultural resources, and support local priorities.

This survey is part of that process. It is intended for visitors, residents, businesses, and anyone else who travels the byway. Your feedback will help us understand how the byway is used today, what visitors value most, and where improvements are needed.

The survey should take about 10 to 15 minutes to complete. Most questions are multiple choice, and all are optional. Your responses will directly inform the CMP update.
