Cleaner Patrols
Downtown Area

A mounted white wing was plac-
ed in operation by the Division of
Street Maintenance last week to
aptrol. the downtown area. A
specially designed three,wheel mo-
torcycle is used to transport the
trained operator and his equip
ment from one location to another.
He will concentrate on the clean
ing of bus stops and other such
locations which although cleaned
each night become Uttered with
refuse during the day because of
pedestrian traffic. A regular route
will be given to specific conditions
such as broken glass in the street
or gutter The three-Wheeler car
ries a container to receive the re-
fuse sweepings. Phoenix has long
been referred to as the "Cleanest
City in the United States, and it
is hoped that this will be a further
aid in meriting that distinction.
