Bedford Township Adopt-A-Road

The Temperance Action Committee (TAC) in an effort to improve the appearance of downtown Temperance has joined the Monroe County Road Commission’s Adopt-A-Road Program. Having seen the positive impact this program provides, TAC has set a goal to have all primary roads within Bedford Township adopted under this program.

The countywide Adopt-A-Road program is a spin off of the State’s Adopt-A-Highway program. The focus is to have citizens assist in keeping our county’s primary roadsides clean & attractive. Participants "adopt" a 2- mile section of road to clean 3 times a year. Church & school groups, civic organizations, businesses and individuals are eligible. There is no fee to participate but you must have approval from the Monroe County Road Commission and you must review a safety video. Signs designating the "adopted area" will include the name of the organization that has adopted that particular section.

As primary overseer of this program, the Monroe County Road Commission will designate the dates for the clean ups, supply safety vests, and bags to put the litter in. Following the clean up, they will send out crews to pick up the bags the groups have left along the roadsides.

TAC in an effort to encourage & facilitate participation in this program has made available any & all forms needed, along with copies of the safety video, at the Bedford Township Hall. We look forward to working alongside our fellow citizens as we strive to keep our community roadsides clean. Remember, the first impression, which often is a visual one, can have a lasting impact. Thank you for helping to make our community a special place in which to live, work & play.

If you or your group chooses to adopt a road call Donna Richileau at 1-888-354-5500 ext. 5102 or Gail Keane at 847-7965.
