This exemplary action will save tax dollars, grow community pride, render roadsides safer for those on foot or pedal, and of course, impart a more aesthetically pleasing travel experience for all who use our roadways.

Here's how to adopt a road, it could be 1/4 mile or 5 miles, it’s your choice:

Call or e-mail the county; or, drop in at the Public Works Building, 2600 Galisteo Road, Santa Fe and ask for The Adopt-a-Road Coordinator or call 992-3025 or e-mail mbarela@santafecounty.org

We will send you a brochure about the Adopt-a-Road Program and the required signup forms.

Interested groups will need to complete two forms; an Application in MS WORD indicating the
portion of road you would like to adopt; and, a second Hold Harmless Agreement in MS WORD
form that addresses the legal/safety concerns of roadside work. Fill out both forms and send them back
to the county.

You can also download here the two forms in PDF (Portable Document Format).

Once you have signed-up, the county will provide you and/or your group with:

• Two road signs. The road signs will define your segment of road and will state
  your or your group’s name in appreciation for its efforts
  (Of course, you may also choose not to have road signs installed.)
• A road safety lesson, clean-up supplies including collection bags, gloves,
  safety vests, a first aid kit, and, if requested, road-work warning signs for
  the duration of your clean-up.
• The county can pick up bagged trash after your clean-up event.
