A road cleaning vehicle 10 comprises a driving system 16 and cleaning equipment 25. A control system comprises at least one debris sensor 60, 65 for generating first and second sensor data for locating debris 9 in front of and behind the vehicle respectively. A controller receives the first and second debris sensor data and processes the data in a debris identification model to identify debris. The driving system and/or the cleaning equipment are operated based upon the debris identified. The first sensor data may identify the location of debris and the second sensor data may identify debris erroneously not collected by the cleaning equipment, and the cleaning equipment or the steering of the vehicle may be adjusted accordingly. An alert system may provide information to an operator based on identified debris. The debris sensor may comprise a camera, lidar and/or a proximity sensor. Also claimed is a road cleaning vehicle having a navigation system and a control system for receiving debris map data indicative of at least one debris state associated with a predetermined location, the vehicle being operated according to the debris state.
