ADOT's vision includes safely connecting people, but did you we also look out for monarch butterflies?

This week's episode of On the Road With ADOT features Biologist Alexa Lopezlira and her work to support pollinators along state highways. She's been featured recently in an ADOT Kids blog and in a public radio interview.

Spend a few minutes listening to Alexa chat with our host, Doug Nintzel, and you'll learn how ADOT helps monarch butterflies and other pollinating insects by planting milkweed and taking steps such as adjusting roadside mowing schedules.

You can subscribe to episodes of On the Road with ADOT through Apple Podcasts and Spotify. You also can find episodes at azdot.gov/Podcast and featured in ADOT Blog posts.
