Of course, dearest. Here is your bridge:

The streets of Rome are narrow, because the shops and joints/pubs occupy whole of them. Meanwhile Germanicus ordered to widen the streets.

Latin "At" I translated "meantime" as "just now", "in the very moment".
But another meaning is also possible here: "but" and it is very suitable here too.
