In addition to repairing and upgrading the roads you travel every day, Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure crews maintain rest stops and clean up garbage from ditches for your safety and to keep our province beautiful.
“It’s costly and frustrating for our crews to continuously clean up rest stops and ditches that are being used as personal dump sites,” said Nancy Heppner, Minister of Highways and Infrastructure Minister. “We ask that travellers do their part in keeping Saskatchewan beautiful by disposing of their garbage responsibly.”
Litter clean-up is a year round, province-wide issue for crews.
For those who would like to do their part to keep Saskatchewan beautiful, the ministry offers the Adopt A Highway program that allows interested groups to clear trash from specified sections along our provincial highways.
