Untitled Document And while the MIDH tries to upgrade the roadways - careless road users constantly downgrade it with endless streams of litter. It's an old and chronic problem - and the MIDH is once again begging you, please don't litter on the highways:

Evondale Moody, Chief Engineer
"They, they usually remove signs. If we leave culverts, they would move the culverts. They take down the signs, the projects, the traffic signs, they remove those, we get them vandalized. It's very disheartening, honestly, because while at the MIDH, we're trying to do our best to improve our road network, improve safety for motorists, we still have that problem with our own citizens vandalizing our infrastructure and also removing the materials from the road shoulders from the road shoulders."

"What cotninues to bother us is also the littering What continues to bother us is also the littering. That is something that we try to best, honestly, to keep our highways clean. I know that you have noticed that we have workmen every single day picking up garbage. We go back the next week and it's the same volume of garbage. So we know that we have our citizens that are disposing of garbage on the highway. They throw refrigerators, air conditioners, all kind of thing. And so we have to keep cleaning it. But I would just like to get the message out there that we are trying our best to keep our highways clean."
