Letter to the editor: Doesn't anyone care about roadside trash?

I recently traveled toward Pittsburgh on Route 28 and was saddened to see that no one seems to care about the trash along the roadside. Grass and weeds will soon grow, and the mowers will chop up what they ride over. That will spread the trash to more places.

I had hoped someone would care about the impression visitors have of our city. Apparently not!

Oh, and by the way, has anyone noticed the storm drain grates? You know, those things that are covered with dead grass, sticks and litter. No wonder there is so much ponding on the roads during rain storms. The drains were put there for a reason.
