Kentucky Transportation Cabinet eager to ‘Adopt’ your student’s ideas

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet has announced the beginning of the annual Adopt-a-Highway Poster Contest, which emphasizes and promotes the importance of removing litter from Kentucky roadways.

Students from across the Commonwealth are invited to submit creative works for use in the Adopt-a-Highway calendar for 2014. The contest is open to all Kentucky students of elementary, middle and high school age.

Exposure to the contest and to the Adopt-a-Highway program provides young people with an opportunity to express a sense of ownership in Kentucky’s highways and stress the importance of keeping them clean and free of litter. The contest is aimed at educating and encouraging children not to litter and to spread the message to others.
