Clean Up Background
There is long-present litter along Solano Avenue, most notably from Trower to Luke Avenue, that could benefit from a Napa clean up. Debris is present and, because it is not getting removed, has broken down into smaller and smaller bits over the years.
This stretch continually gains additional litter: sources being passengers who utilize two bus stops along Solano, drivers who toss litter out the window, citizens who walk this region, plus natural forces (wind) which blow loose debris to this stretch.
A small urban waterway, Salvador Creek, runs the length. Lots of manmade debris is visible within the waterway and along the road.
