Keep Douglasville Beautiful (KDB) is raising litter awareness this week by displaying a week’s worth of roadside trash at the corner of Chapel Hill Road and Interstate 20.
The pile of 2.5 tons of trash gathered last week inside the city limits is on display to raise awareness of the cost of littering as part of the statewide “Litter, It Costs Money” campaign.
According to a banner in front of the pile, it costs the city $200,000 per year to pick up roadside trash.
Chan Weeks, KDB executive director, said the 2.5 tons picked up last week is standard, as the weight of weekly roadside trash averages between two and three tons.
