	Parkway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Many parkways have signature road signs with special emblems that suggest a thematic driving experience and increase the sense of isolation from civilization in the vicinity of the road.
		The terminology "parkway" to define a type of road was coined by Calvert Vaux and Frederick Law Olmsted, designers of New York City's Central Park, in their proposal to link the city's parks with pleasure roads.
		In the 1930s, the concept of the parkway was extended to the federal government, which constructed several national parkways designed for recreational driving and to commemorate historic routes.

		The parkway is very busy in the summer months of July and August with peak traffic flow of 100,000 vehicles per month.
		The highway is well engineered to minimize grades and hairpin turns but drivers must also be on the lookout for wildlife, touring cyclists, and vehicles stopped on the shoulder.
		A national parks permit is required to travel on the Icefields Parkway; stations near Lake Louise and Jasper enforce the law.

	The Merritt Parkway
		The Merritt Parkway, a 37-mile stretch of Route 15 in Fairfield County, is known as the Queen of Parkways with good reason: it's the most scenic highway in Connecticut, and recognized as one of the most scenic of its kind in the nation.
		Though the Parkway opened as a four-lane divided highway with controlled access (with a few temporary at-grade crossings), the original plans were much less ambitious, and would not have resulted in a road with the national prominence it enjoys today.
		The Parkway was built in the northern half of a 300-foot right of way, whose primary purpose was to control access to the road; not until 1939 did the state have the legal right to restrict access to a highway, so it created a buffer zone of purchased land.
