Keep Bowie Beautiful: Join the Adopt-A-Road Program

The City of Bowie Adopt-A-Road is a fantastic way for residents, businesses, and community groups to take an active role in keeping the city clean and beautiful. By adopting a section of roadway, volunteers commit to picking up litter and debris, helping to maintain a cleaner, safer, and more attractive environment for everyone.
Participating in this program offers numerous benefits. It enhances community pride, encourages environmental responsibility, and helps reduce pollution that could harm local wildlife and waterways. Additionally, keeping roads clean makes Bowie a more inviting place to live, work, and visit.
Getting involved is simple and rewarding. Whether you're an individual, a family, or part of an organization, adopting a road is a meaningful way to give back. Together, we can make a visible difference and inspire others to take pride in our city. Join the movement—help keep Bowie beautiful!
