context_page_description: U.S. Bicycle Route 1 is a cross-country bicycle route that will run the length of the United States eastern seaboard from Florida to Maine. It is one of the two original U.S. Bicycle Routes, the other being U.S. Bicycle Route 76.
  AASHTO recognizes the segments in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine as being the only "official" segments of U.S. Bicycle Route 1. The other segments, even if signed or mapped, have not yet been submitted by the states to AASHTO for formal inclusion or recognition in the U.S. Bicycle Route system. The New Hampshire and Maine sections of U.S. Bicycle Route 1 were approved in May 2011, with the New Hampshire section following the East Coast Greenway. Also approved was an alternate route, U.S. Bicycle Route 1A, that runs closer to the coast through a portion of Maine. Florida and Massachusetts segments were established in November 2014. Georgia's segment was designated in May 2019.
  In Georgia, State Bicycle Route 95 is planned to be incorporated into US Bike Route 1.
