Adopt-a-Road Program

The City of Kawartha Lakes’ ADOPT-A-ROAD program has been established as a public service program for volunteers to enhance the local litter collection activities by picking litter along City road right of ways. It is a way for environmentally conscious individuals and groups to contribute to a cleaner and more beautiful City road system. The City will erect a sign along the designated road recognizing volunteers/volunteer groups for their efforts.

Volunteers will collect litter a minimum of two (2) times per year for a period of three (3) years on a designated area of road. The City will supply volunteers with garbage bags and authorization to dispose of the waste collected at City landfill sites. Further information on the roles and responsibilities of Volunteers and the City can be found in the Adopt a Road Application Form (PDF).
