Highway Sections

This layer delineates the fifty-six sections of the Highway Division of the City of Philadelphia Streets Department. Sections can be aggregated into districts and subdivided into subsections. A Highway Engineer is responsible for each district. The section layer was developed to aid the Highway Division in the planning, organizing, and maintaining of the streets within each of the six districts. Examples of maintenance include: paving, snow removal, concrete maintenance, and the monitoring/repairing of ditches and potholes.
