ALMOND, NY — Since 2021, the Allegany County Democratic Committee has cleaned up a section of State Rt. 21 in Almond, NY as part of the NYS Department of Transportation’s “Adopt-a-Highway” program. 

This year’s fall clean-up took place on Monday, October 13^th.   Volunteers collected numerous bags of trash, giving the roadway a much-improved appearance.  This project is just one of the many ways local Democrats “Serve our Community.” 

ACDC’s designated section incudes State Rt. 21 in Almond and the section of Karr Valley Rd. that leads to/from the expressway entrance.  It was specifically requested by the Committee because of its importance as a gateway to our county. This stretch of highway is heavily used by I-86 travelers on their way to the Alfred campuses or to recreational opportunities elsewhere in the area.  Volunteers from the Democratic Committee clean this section twice a year.
