Corridor Management Entity (CME)
Linking Silver Springs and the city of Ormond Beach, the Florida Black Bear Scenic Byway provides access to a mosaic of natural lands and communities surrounding one of Florida’s most distinctive ecosystems known as the Big Scrub. Traversing eastern Marion County and parts of Lake, Putnam and Volusia counties, the 60-mile long corridor along SR 40 serves as the backbone for a network of scenic roads and interpretive trails that foster an understanding and appreciation of Florida’s Big Scrub and its inhabitants.
Corridor Management Entity
The Florida Black Bear Scenic Byway Corridor Management Entity (CME) is a group of volunteer citizens providing support for the corridor. Meetings are held monthly at locations along the byway, and all are welcome to attend.
If you would like to get involved, please contact, Deputy District Ranger, Ocala National Forest Lake George Ranger District, 17147 East Highway 40, Silver Springs, FL 34488, 352-625-2520.
