Scenic Texas
EXAS, INC. is a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation and enhancement of our state´s visual environment. Texas experienced unprecedented economic growth during the automobile era and has developed a vast highway network as a result. However, not enough attention has been paid to the view from our roadways and our national image is suffering as a consequence. The perceived quality of life in much of Texas is considered substandard. Scenic Texas is committed to restoring a positive image and preserving the legendary vistas that have made the Lone Star State famous.
