Two weeks ago the road was messy and gravelly, with a leaking water pipe and machines digging big holes for electricity cables. Then, the machines, the water, the barriers and the hole were gone, but the road was still messy and gravelly. But, what is this? It's another machine - a road sweeper. "Keep Cornwall Clean." It has huge round brushes between its wheels. Now the road is half-cleaned.
