The Indiana Department of Transportation is seeking dedicated individuals or groups to join our Adopt-A-Highway program which helps significantly reduce the roadside trash problem throughout Indiana.

INDOT’s Adopt-A-Highway program coordinates with community and service groups that provide highway trash and litter pick-up in local areas. The program helps clean up our state roads and U.S. routes as well as improves the look of Indiana’s communities.
