Adopt-A-Highway volunteer groups will begin roadside cleanup efforts in April as part of the coordinated, statewide highway beautification program to remove the trash, recyclables, and litter from state and county roads. Drivers should exercise caution and be aware of the Adopt-A-Highway groups as they are traveling Walworth County roads. 

Volunteer groups in need of supplies should contact Walworth County Public Works at (262) 741-3367. To make this a safe and productive volunteer program, volunteers should remember to be aware of their surroundings and should not pick up litter on medians, bridges, tunnels, overpasses, or around other structures that would pose a danger. If volunteers see suspicious items, they should not touch them and should contact Walworth County Public Works (262) 741-3114, Option 1. 

Groups interested in adopting a road section should contact Walworth County Public Works for information at (262) 741-3367. The County has several segments available on County Highways A, B, C, D, DD, E, K, M, N, O, and X.
