Abstract
A new road cleaning equipment has been developed for Indian roadways, which utilizes updated technology that is suitable for Indian conditions. This streamlined equipment reduces the need for human labor to clean large areas over long distances, enabling the cleaning to be completed in a single drive. The technique has been used to clean highways and can effectively remove unwanted waste from roads, such as papers, covers, food, beverages, and fine dust.The design satisfies all criteria for Indian roads and enables cleaning of broad roads and intersecting corners by adding extra accessories and mountings. Despite operating on the same principles as a vacuum cleaner, this system has a much larger cleaning area and particle sizes and is less expensive. A prototype of a "Manually Operated Road Cleaning Machine" has been created, which utilizes local materials and is both economically and socially advantageous. This device operates using a straightforward rotational force and is effective at throwing dust particles from the road surface into the container with a cylindrical brush. It can be used on roads, college campuses, bus stands, and railway stations where dust accumulation is high.
