A two-day litter cleanup blitz is underway in Prince George’s County, Maryland.
Our team was out conducting a sign blitz today to remove illegally placed signs in our roadways and medians. We will continue the sign blitz tomorrow, so residents who see a sign in a public roadway that needs to be removed should contact CountyClick311.
