Adopt-A-Highway Cleanup – Sunday, October 8, 2017

On October 8, I am planning another highway cleanup. This one will be in eastern San Diego County and cover two sections of highway, I-8 at Laguna Summit (Sunrise Highway) and US 80. My section of I-8 runs from the summit to two miles east with about 1/2 of it able to be cleaned. The section of US 80 runs from just below Laguna Summit to two miles east as well. Both roadways should be a fairly easy cleanup. The plan, thus far, is to meet at I-8 and Sunrise Highway / Old Highway 80 at 9 am. Safety equipment, such as hard hats and vests will be supplied. There will be a safety meeting for all the volunteers as well before the cleanup begins. Bring plenty of water and snacks as we will be out there a while. Only those 18 and over can volunteer. Please RSVP as so I can get an idea of how many to expect. So, come on out and help clean some of our counties roadways.

  1. I have seen your signs on my way up I-8 before. If you need assistance, I may be able to offer some at times. Thank you as well. Caltrans does check up on adopters that don’t do the work when they are supposed to, they just have a large backlog at times.

    1. I actually am the adopter for the Road Scholars sections on US 80. We don’t clean them often as they tend to stay clean. They do get checked fairly regularly however. Sunday the plan is to clean I-8 and see if we can also get a portion of US 80 done.

      1. We have indeed cleaned up there. However, as we are the ones responsible for it, we would appreciate if it you would not clean our segments. It can, and may have, altered our cleanup schedules. If there is a large amount of trash, feel free to let us know and we will deal with it.
