"AMARILLO, Tex. - Route 66 in Amarillo will soon be enhancing its image. It won't be long before new signs line 6th Avenue honoring the history behind Route 66.
President of the Historic Route 66 Association, Cody Anderson says, this project has been a few years in the making and will be funded with money they have raised at various fundraisers.
"A couple years we've been working with the city and Xcel getting some new Route 66 banners put up down here on our little section of historic Route 66 in Amarillo," he said." Text Source: (
