Adopt-A-Highway Program Signs Erected by the Road to “No Where”
On Friday, April 4, 2025, the Adopt-A-Highway program erected signs along Interstate 86 in Salamanca, NY in memory of the late Kiona M. Welch of Ohi:yo’, signaling the community’s commitment to keeping the area litter-free. “The road to “no where” was her favorite spot & I know she would just love that the signs were placed there” said Kiona’s Mom, Glenda Taylor-Welch. Glenda also shared that “Love you more” was something Kiona said to everyone when she hung up the phone, left or when you left her. At some point we will be looking for volunteers to help keep “her” mile clean of debris. Nya:wëh to NYSDOT for putting up the signs.
David Hawk Richardson, NYS DOT Highway Maintenance shared “It felt like she was there as we put her signs up. It was an honor to do it and the guys in the crew said that too.”
