The month of April is the annual Clean Up Kansas Campaign with Adopt-A-Highway program. By cleaning along roadways throughout the state, we increase safety for motorists and pedestrians as well as improve the beauty of Kansas. It also helps raise awareness about pollution and the benefits of a clean community. Non-profit groups can join at no cost. Members must be at least 11 years old and minors must have adult supervision.
Clean-ups are three times a year as convenient, and groups are recognized with signs marking their sections of the highway. This event, as well as the program, is sponsored by the Kansas Department of Transportation. All Adopt-A-Highway groups are encouraged to participate in the statewide event.
