Volunteers will be out in droves Friday to begin cleaning up the 100-series highways across the province. In Lunenburg County, crews branded in fluorescent vests will be in the Bridgewater and Chester-areas of Highway 103. The clean-up campaign is designed to remove garbage and recyclables from the side of the highway. Gina Bain with the Adopt-A-Highway program says they're encouraging people to stop throwing waste from their vehicles.
She urges people to use caution while driving tomorrow as volunteers will be walking along highways. Over 5,000 bags of garbage and recyclable material was picked up last year from the side of provincial highways.
