Marin Clean Highways
Can we do better than this? Yes, we can! And you can help. This blog includes resources and actions you and your friends and neighbors can undertake to address the litter issue in our beautiful county. We can answer your questions and help you get involved - easily!
Who Are We?
WHO ARE WE? We are volunteers who want to rid our county of the eyesore the litter creates on our highways. We know the agencies and people in Caltrans, City of Mill Valley, Strawberry and Marin County responsible for litter cleanup and continued maintenance. We are diligently working with them to resolve this problem.

August 2013 Newsletter
Well, August brings more good news. We are starting to receive donations from local businesses that line the frontage road. 100% of the funds we receive through MarinLink are going to the cost of clean up and maintenance of the frontage roads on the East and West sides of highway 101 between Seminary and Blithedale/Tiburon exits.
We would like to acknowledge and thank the first of the businesses to donate to Marin Clean Highways:
Goodman Building Supply
In-N-Out
As well, we have started receiving personal donations. With the donors permission, we will begin a thank you page acknowledging their generous support.
When you are in the business establishments, please take a moment to let them know how much you appreciate their contribution to cleaning up our environment.
Speaking of which - doesn't it look a lot better? Our trash blaster, John, is doing a great job of cleaning things up. He mentioned that he picked up 5 huge bags of litter from just one area around the Blithedale on ramp approaching the 101 south. Included in the rubbish was a newspaper from several years ago! Unbelievable.
With your help and the help of our local business establishments, we can continue to keep these areas clean of debris and then concentrate on a maintenance and beautification plan.
Here is the info again if you would like to make a tax free donation:
Thank you again for your support!
