I have sometimes wondered if the "adopt a road" program now so prevalent in the US would work in the DR. Find a local business, such as a hotel or supermarket or rum company -- or even a local branch of one of the political parties, what the heck! -- that adopts part of a highway and arrange to keep it cleaned up.

Anybody think it could work? Maybe start with the North Coast highway between PP and Cabarete, and the highway between Las Americas airport and Juan Dolio to the east and to SD to the west?

Regards,
Keith
