Furthermore, <br />our drivers will be supplied with manual push brooms and shovels to clean/sweep areas such as <br />narrow cul-de-sacs, median noses and portions of left-turn pockets. <br />Athens will have installed on all of their sweepers the most technologically advanced GPS <br />monitoring system. This system tracks all miles that are swept in the city with the broom heads <br />down and water on and provides a variety of reports and information, including live real-time <br />tracking. GPS reports shall be available at the request of the City. <br />r Powerful software configuration options that allow immediate customization such as <br />setting up authorized and unauthorized zones and times and vehicle speeds to trigger <br />exception alerts and reports.
