Tunnel Cleaner
Image
A truck is moving along a tunnel, with a rotating scrub brush attached to its rear scrubbing the ceiling of the tunnel. A man is walking on the opposite side of the street. Caption reads: "A special machine was used to scrub the interior of the tunnel taking northbound traffic from the North-South Freeway onto W. Kilbourn Ave. Both of the freeway ramps leading to tunnels running underneath MacArthur Square were closed to traffic for part of a day this week because of maintenance work."
