We have partnered with Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) and their Adopt-a-Highway Program. We all have a shared mission of keeping Virginia beautiful for residents and visitors. This is also a key part of Virginia's environmental strategy to prevent litter from entering wild areas and waterways.
Participation in Virginia's Adopt-a-Highway program is free. Highway Adopters commit to cleaning their stretch of highway at least two times per year, for an adoption period of three years. Highway Adopters must report their pickups to VDOT so we can accurately account for their efforts.
VDOT provides Highway Adopters with safety equipment and trash bags. VDOT will install two signs recognizing your group’s adoption after you have reported two successful litter pickups.
Zoom in to see selectable road segments. Roads that are already adopted or marked unsuitable for adoption are automatically excluded and won't appear on the map. Click a segment to select it (it will turn red); click again to deselect. Your selection must be one contiguous stretch of road (each segment you add must connect end-to-end with your current selection) totaling at least 0.4 miles. If you don't see a road you expected, it may already be adopted — double check on the official VDOT Adopt-a-Highway map.
