On Monday the City of Porterville began its Litter Abatement Pilot Project, a beautification project taking place along Highways 190 and 65.
The project is being done in collaboration with the Tulare County Association of Governments, California Department of Transportation, CalTrans, and Community Services Employment Training, CSET. The Project will employ individuals experiencing homelessness work along Highway 65 and Highway 190 within the city of Porterville limits. Also included in the work are off ramps and other transportation public right of ways near the highways where litter accumulates. The increased litter abatement will accompany planned landscaping projects along the highways.
