Adopt-A-Roadway

Cleaning Up in Cranberry!

Cranberry Township’s Adopt-A-Roadway program has marked its 26th year!

About the Program

The Adopt-A-Roadway program focuses on approximately 30 miles of Cranberry Township’s Collector Roads. These are township owned roads that see the highest amounts of traffic.

Our volunteers consist of individual township residents, members of local organizations, and township-based businesses. Altogether, 23 groups have committed to cleaning their adopted sections of roadway at least twice per year adding up to 400 volunteer hours annually.

On average, our volunteers collect over 230 bags of litter! Between 1997 and 2022, more than 4,800 bags of litter have been collected, along with other debris such as scrap metal, wood, pipes, plastic, carpeting, tires, and more.

The Public Works Department provides our volunteers with all the equipment necessary to operate safely, including safety vests, traffic signs, pickup tongs, and garbage bags. Additionally, each roadway receives a road sign acknowledging the adoptive organization.

How Can You Get Involved? 

A minimum two-year commitment is required to be a sponsor, with one spring and one fall clean up outing required each year.

More roads become available for adoption when new roadways are added, or when a participating organization leaves the program. If you’re interested in participating, please fill out the application below and someone will be in touch with you as more roads are added to the list.
