    The story of New Jersey’s Millstone Valley is the story of the Garden State and you can see it all for yourself! by Jeanette K. Muser Millstone Valley Scenic Byway Jeanette K. Muser | www.GardenStateLegacy.com Issue 24 June 2014 “Inspired by this rare oasis of natural beauty and historic integrity, Millstone Valley National Scenic Byway is working to preserve its rural charm, to spruce up areas of neglect and to enable visitors to discover the rich layers of history and nature underlying its visual appeal.” —Mission Statement Millstone Valley Scenic Byway Jeanette K. Muser | www.GardenStateLegacy.com Issue 24 June 2014 he Millstone Valley National Scenic Byway was designated by the National Scenic Byways Program of Tthe Federal Highway Administration as of 2009 and encompasses a wide array of recreational and historic resources along 25-miles of the Millstone River. But first, what exactly is a “Scenic Byway” anyway? A Byway can be wild, rural, suburban, or urban. They can be hundreds of miles or a short jaunt over to the next town. The road’s visible surroundings must embody one or more of six characteristics: Scenic—natural or man-made memorable, distinctive, and uninterrupted; Natural—minimal human disturbance of the natural ecological feature; Historic—landscapes, buildings or structures with visual evidence of the past; Cultural—visual evidence of unique customs, traditions, folklores or rituals of a no-longer existing human group; Recreational—the road corridor itself is used for recreation like biking, jogging, fishing, walking, kayaking, canoeing, painting, and photographing.

    Doctors-Assunpink Creek Trail Feasibility Study 1 June 1, 2007 ____________________________________________________________________________________ 1.0 Executive Summary The Crosswicks-Doctors Creek Watershed is a 146 square mile area comprising four counties and fifteen municipalities. The watershed is rich in natural, cultural, historical, recreational, social and economic features. Greenway preservation activity has taken place in the Crosswicks Creek-Doctors Creek Watershed area including the formation of the Doctors Creek/Crosswicks Creek Regional Greenway Planning Group (CCDC Greenway Group) in 2001 and the completion of The Crosswicks Creek-Doctors Creek Greenway Plan in 2004 (FX Browne, Inc. & CCDC ). The Greenway Plan contains a number of regulatory and non-regulatory recommendations to conserve watershed features including completion of a trail feasibility study for the Doctors Creek and Assunpink Creeks. In 2005, the CCDC Greenway Group obtained a grant from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, Environmental Services Program (ESP) to complete the Doctors Creek-Assunpink Creek Trail Feasibility Study. State grant funding was matched by the four municipalities (Hamilton Township, Allentown Borough, Upper Freehold Township, and Millstone Township) within the study area (See Map 1, Base Map). A greenway trail is a linear open space area established along both natural and man-made corridors usually intended for recreational use. The benefits of multi- use greenway trails are numerous. The vision for the Doctors-Assunpink Trail is a low impact recreational trail that will benefit landowners and local citizens. The CCDC sought to determine, through the feasibility study, whether creating a trail, and linking with other existing and proposed trails is possible. The Doctors Creek-Assunpink Creek study area is approximately 21.5 square miles and includes the two creeks, several creek tributaries and the parcels adjacent to them.
