"Over the last 160 years, street sweeping has evolved considerably. Originally, sweepers were developed to collect horse manure and litter and increase the safety of people and vehicles on city streets by removing debris from the road surfaces. Initially, the role of the street sweeper was mainly one of aesthetics, but this was later expanded to include the management of road deposited sediment, These solids could accumulate in drainage paths, block catchbasins and clog sewer pipes. In the USA, the first street sweeper was patented by C.S. Bishop in 1849 (Patent number 6,699)"--Introduction, page 1.
