	What is "Adopt-A-Highway"? The Adopt-A-Highway program is a tax-deductible opportunity for proud New Yorkers to give back to their community by ensuring clean and beautiful roadways in the New York City area. Who can adopt? Adopt a highway segments can be adopted by individuals, companies, or organizations (other than political candidates and campaigns). Segments can also be adopted in memory of an individual. Signs acknowledging the sponsor will be placed on the adopted roadway segment; however, the Adopt-A-Highway Program is not a forum for advertising or public discourse. Why should I adopt? It's an easy way to make a visible impact on your community and show your pride in being a New Yorker New York is a dynamic City - a growing population means more cars on our roadways and unfortunately, more trash Where are highway segments available?
