Adopt a Highway

PHOENIX – Adopt-a-Highway volunteers will be joining participants across the country for National CleanUp Day on Sept. 19 with local volunteers serving in 13 of Arizona’s counties. Volunteers from all 50 states will focus on cleaning green spaces, urban landscapes and waterways. 

Adopt a Highway volunteers help Arizona look her best. Now, volunteers can make others aware of the work they're doing to 'Keep Arizona Grand.'

According to our Adopt a Highway program, the spirit of Sasquatch lives on US 60 east of Show Low.

National Cleanup Day happens in one month, so now is the time to tell us you'll be there!

Calling all volunteers! National CleanUp Day is coming and we hope you'll participate through Adopt a Highway. 

About 50 Heber-Overgaard community members helped clean a dozen miles of highway shoulders this month. 

PHOENIX – A lot has changed over the last few months, but there is still a need for volunteers to help keep our state looking its best. Last weekend about 50 volunteers in Heber-Overgaard cleaned portions of state routes 260 and 277 as part of the Arizona Department of Transportation’s Adopt a Highway program.

If you drive through the Hopi Reservation, you’ll notice an Adopt a Highway sign that reads “BC One of a Kind” about 11 miles south of Second Mesa. It honors Branyon Rebeau Claw Sr., the oldest son of Madeline Sahneyah, also known as “BC.”

One Show Low group has a long history of community service and it includes keeping our state beautiful with the Adopt a Highway program. 

Our ADOT Kids coloring activity this week encourages kids to avoid littering.

One White Mountain community group has maintained 2 miles of State Route 277 for 15 years. 

We're answering kids' litter questions and featuring their Keep it Grand artwork. 

One Adopt a Highway segment near Show Low has one family traveling nearly 200 miles to honor a beloved sister.

Kids should know they too can participate in Adopt a Highway and help Keep it Grand.

PHOENIX – What do you get when 10,000 volunteers remove 107 tons of litter along state highways in a year? 

First, there’s a $500,000 savings in taxpayer funds that can be used for other Arizona Department of Transportation priorities. More importantly, though, is a determination to Keep It Grand by making Arizona’s highways more appealing for all.

That makes those who commit time and effort to ADOT’s Adopt a Highway program worthy of a big thank you from all Arizonans during National Volunteer Week, which lasts through April 25.

Take our trash quiz and learn more about how the Adopt a Highway program helps with litter in our state. 

Please have your kids encourage others to Keep it Grand using their creativity with chalk art. 

One Adopt a Highway group has found "one man's trash is another man's treasure" is sometimes true. 

We have a great way for you to celebrate Arizona on Statehood Day.
