Illegal Camps and Graffiti Cleanup

ODOT maintains the land adjoining highways and transportation infrastructure, or right of way. Part of that maintenance includes litter removal and graffiti cleanup. We do a lot of work to keep our roads clean, but the problem is constant and increasing at rates greater than our crews, volunteers and partners can keep up with. Litter and graffiti happen in all parts of the state, though we see greater frequency in the Portland Metro region.
