Alaska officials are seeking public comments on a draft for the George Parks Highway scenic byway plan.

Officials say 230 miles of the 323-mile Parks is designated as a National Scenic Byway.

According to officials, the draft plan serves as a framework for decision making in development and maintenance of interpretive sites and services along the byway.

The plan was produced by the Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation on behalf of the state Department of Transportation's Scenic Byways program.
