Adopt-A-Road
The City of Grand Island Adopt-A-Road Program is partnered with Grand Island Area Clean Community System. We are an anti-litter program intended to build community pride and assist in welcoming visitors to our City. Adopting a road is a partnership between citizens and the City by agreeing to keep it clean and free of litter. This program offers individuals and groups a way to make a very positive impact on the appearance of the City roadway system and their community without a large time commitment. Participants are asked for a twice-a-year clean-up of their adopted roadway.
Groups/Organizations will be recognized with an official Adopt-A-Road Sign with Name Plaque at each end of the adopted roadway section. Recognition of this nature will be seen by all motorists/pedestrians that travel the adopted section of roadway.
And...let's not forget about the positive environmental impact adopting a road can have. Most of the roadways with drainage ditches for storm water will carry litter and trash to a local pond or river. Picking up litter before it enters the storm water system also helps keep our local recreational areas cleaner.
Keep G.I. Beautiful
If you are interested in doing a One-Time only litter pick-up or would like an area suitable for younger helpers contact Public Works and we can assist with this too!
