The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation is seeking volunteers to participate in the Forest and Warren Adopt-A-Highway programs, which involves cleaning litter from state-owned roadsides.
“As the weather has started to change and the snow has melted, we unfortunately start to see litter and debris along roadways throughout Forest and Warren counties,” said Adam Elms, PennDOT maintenance manager for both counties.
Volunteers collect litter on a 2-mile section of state highway at least twice a year, typically in spring and fall.
In Forest County, there are 58 groups participating and more than 141 miles adopted. There are several miles of roadway open for adoption in both Forest and Warren counties.
