More than 650 ADOT Adopt a Highway volunteer groups pick up litter along 780 miles of highway in northern Arizona. These groups are just a small sample of the hundreds of thousands of groups who participate in the nationally and internationally recognized Adopt a Highway volunteer litter prevention program.

Over the years, the ADOT Adopt a Highway volunteer program has provided a multimillion-dollar labor value to Arizona taxpayers by keeping our highways clean.

ADOT’s Adopt a Highway volunteer program began in 1988 in Globe. Today there are volunteers in every county.
