E Correct answer
Explanation

The sentence compares streets of two cities using 'than', so we need a comparative adjective. 'Broader' is the comparative form of 'broad' and correctly describes street width. 'Longest' and 'shortest' are superlatives (incorrect form), while 'costlier' and 'older' don't fit the context of describing street dimensions.
