PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Philadelphia’s new street sweeping program has hit a road bump: The trucks are too wide to fit down some of the city’s narrow, colonial-era streets. WHYY reports that the 10 new street sweeping trucks can’t fit down 10% of streets in the pilot neighborhoods. The trucks are each 9 feet wide. Streets Department Commissioner Carlton Williams says the city is considering buying slimmer trucks.
