 would not have to clean the shoe

 You must have heard most people saying that these brushes are used to clean your shoes, but it is not so.  These brushes are neither for cleaning footwear nor for playing.  Actually, these brushes are applied for the safety of the people.

 These brushes on the escalators work to hide the gaps between the side and the wall.  Small things like pens, safety pins, coins, shoelaces can easily reach inside these gaps and get stuck in the gears and damage the machine.  That's why the brush is installed.  In such a situation, even if a small thing falls from your hand or pocket, even then it should not go into these gaps and stay on the stairs by diverting from the brushes.

 Apart from this, if a person comes over the edge of the Escalators, then they help to avoid getting hurt due to the feet getting stuck or any material falling.  In such a situation, they also work to save you from accidents.
