2.2 Tons Of Trash Removed In Keep Washington County Beautiful Cleanup
On a gorgeous spring day, the volunteers worked diligently to remove litter from approximately 10 miles of road along State Route 519 (beginning with the intersection from Pike Street in Houston to the intersection with State Route 50 in Hickory), approximately 1.5 miles of road along Meddings, and 1.5 miles along Paxton Road both in Chartiers Township.
Police from Chartiers and Mt. Pleasant Township provided traffic control to ensure the volunteers’ safety. Chartiers Township Public Works Department crews picked up the collected trash bags that contained a total of 2.2 tons of trash removed as well as 81 tires.
The partnership efforts between Keep Washington County Beautiful, Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful, Chartiers Township, Mount Pleasant Township, and MarkWest enabled this cleanup to be the most successful volunteer roadside cleanup since the inception of Keep Washington County Beautiful back in July of 2009.
This cleanup also ranks as one of the top cleanups in the state for Earth Day this year for number of volunteers and miles of roadside cleaned.
