Book Description
"The report provides information concerning the prevention and removal of roadside litter, unfulfilled needs, knowledge gaps, and underperforming activities. It covers enforcement, education, awareness, and engineering methods for both litter prevention and collection. The synthesis focuses on state DOT personnel involved in roadside litter prevention and their contractors who conduct litter prevention and removal programs. Also, as roadside litter prevention appears to be a multiple stakeholder activity, policy makers and practitioners from other government agencies and environmental organizations, as well as groups and volunteers may be interested in this synthesis"--Pref.

Book Description
This synthesis will be of interest to maintenance managers, maintenance engineers, those responsible for environmental protection and waste management, and others concerned with the removal and disposal of litter from the roadside. Information is presented on the various aspects of the roadside litter problem, including the causes, amounts, costs, and hazards of litter disposal. This synthesis describes the state of the practice with respect to the magnitude and character of the roadside litter collection and disposal process. This report of the Transportation Research Board discusses various state practices with regard to roadside litter collection and highlights the volunteer efforts for roadside litter removal, such as Adopt-a-Highway and Keep America Beautiful. The disposal practices followed by state highway maintenance agencies are described, as are the issues associated with the available landfill disposal sites, incineration, and other disposal methods. Alternative strategies and deterrents to highway litter, such as litter reduction regulations and educational programs are presented, together with suggested strategies for recycling, reuse of materials, and smart purchase practices. Recommendations for future research are also included.

As part of the project evaluation to determine the degree of success, litter audits were carried out before and after the intervention at the same sites within the project area and at reference control sites.
