Adopt-A-Road

Our roads are vital to the quality of life and beauty of Kern County. Our roads link us to our communities, commerce, agriculture and recreation through the varied landscapes of our mountains, deserts and valleys. Roadside littering and illegal dumping diminish the beauty of our County and drain valuable resources. The Kern County Public Works Department provides groups and individuals a means to participate in the maintenance of our road facilities. Adopt-A-Road today to help keep Kern roads clean!
