Urges Division of Travel and Tourism to produce map of scenic motorcycle routes.

Impact

By encouraging the creation of this map, the resolution aims to promote local tourism and increase economic activity in areas frequently visited by motorcyclists. It suggests that such a map could be produced at little to no cost to the state, potentially funded through advertisements for local businesses along the routes. This could serve to not only enhance the travel experience for motorcyclists but also provide economic benefits to local establishments that cater to these travelers.

Summary

Assembly Resolution No. 132, introduced in the New Jersey 220th Legislature, urges the Division of Travel and Tourism to create a map highlighting scenic motorcycle routes throughout the state. The resolution emphasizes New Jersey's rich and varied landscapes that can appeal to both residents and out-of-state motorcyclists. It acknowledges the unique experience motorcyclists enjoy, enabling them to access routes and attractions that are not accessible by car, thus enhancing their travel experience.

Contention

There may be discussions regarding the implementation and funding of the map's production, as well as concerns about ensuring it adequately reflects the best scenic routes and attractions for motorcyclists. While the resolution is generally supportive, differing opinions may arise about which areas should be highlighted and the potential administrative challenges in overseeing the project. Further, the comparison with Wyoming's successful initiative may spur debates on the effectiveness and adaptability of a similar program in New Jersey.
