		Development patterns in the seven-county central Bluegrass Region of Kentucky have historically followed what many consider the ideal form of development: urban and suburban development contained within established urban centers and small towns with each town separated from the other by greenbelts of farmland and connected by a network of scenic roads.
		The region is experiencing a rapid increase in ex-urban growth in rural areas, and cities are expanding their boundaries for urban development down the region’s connecting roadway corridors toward each other.
		The Bluegrass Corridors Task Force has determined that a planning handbook would be the most effective means of addressing the mobility and livability concerns facing the region and achieving the Bluegrass Regional Vision, developed by Bluegrass Tomorrow in 1993 through a broad-based community planning process.

	Bluegrass Region (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Although Kentucky is called the Blue Grass State, the Bluegrass physiographic region (shown in green) is restricted to the central part of the State where Ordovician (and some Silurian, and Devonian) age rocks are exposed at the surface.
		The Inner Blue Grass (shown in light green on the map) is characterized by gently rolling hills and rich, fertile soils, which are prefect for raising horses (see photo).
		The Outer Bluegrass (dark green on the map) is characterized by deeper valleys, with little flat land, because the bedrock in this area is mostly composed of interbedded Ordovician limestones and shales that are more easily eroded than the limestones of the Inner Bluegrass.
