Letter: Highway litter is out of control

Wed, Jan 26, 2005 (9:05 a.m.)

Last week I drove to Death Valley National Park from Greeley, Colo. Coming in to Las Vegas on Interstate 15, I could not believe the amount of trash and litter on the highway!

Both on I-15 and Blue Diamond Road the amount of litter was absolutely disgusting. As much money as Las Vegas spends on promoting itself as a fun way to spend your vacation, my lasting impression is that of miles and miles of trash and litter.

Can't you start an adopt-a-highway program, or have people who are given community service pick up the trash? Please do something about it before it gets even worse.
