Imagine A Litter-Free Delaware Clean Up Scheduled

Department of Transportation | Kent County | New Castle County | Sussex County | Date Posted: Monday, October 2, 2017



The Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) is asking Adopt-A-Highway volunteers and others to help clean up Delaware’s roadsides during the department’s 13th annual Imagine A Litter-Free Delaware event, which will be held between 8am and 5pm on Saturday, October 20, and Sunday October 21, 2017. The rain date will be Saturday, October 28, and Sunday, October 29, 2017.

DelDOT is encouraging current Adopt-A-Highway groups and volunteers to participate in the event, and it’s not too late for new volunteers to adopt a Delaware roadside for clean up.

If anyone would like to adopt a roadside, he or she can contact George Hollis in New Castle County at (302) 326-4523, Laura Young in Kent County at (302) 760-2413, or April Sammons in Sussex County at (302) 853-1315.

Participants in the Imagine A Litter-Free Delaware clean up should wear safety vests that DelDOT has provided to Adopt-A-Highway volunteers.

During 2016, Adopt-A-Highway volunteers picked up about 2,000 of the nearly 32,000 bags of trash collected along Delaware’s roads.
