Adopt-a-Highway

The Iowa Department of Transportation manages the Adopt-a-Highway Program. The program helps increase public awareness of environmental needs along Iowa highways by making sections of roadsides available for adoption. The Iowa Department of Transportation has jurisdiction over the primary highway system (interstate, US and Iowa highways). Only these roadways can be adopted through the Iowa Adopt-A-Highway Program.

The map below outlines areas of highway that are adoptable:
