Abstract

Transport system is recognized as one of the important factors for a country's progress and economic growth. Further, public transportation reduces the traffic which has been the major concern and cost efficient. Two main problems being faced by today's public transportation system include possible threats to personal safety and irregularities in scheduling. Existing intelligent transportation systems provides details about the present location of the bus, its expected arrival time and expected waiting time mainly based on GPS and GSM systems. The primary focus of this paper is to provide an overview of such systems, and suggest a system with which, a user can reach his/her desired destination safely, easily and efficiently. These objectives can be achieved by collecting, processing and providing all the necessary details regarding the arrival/departure time of the bus, its real location time of arrival, availability of seats, accident/breakdown detection and alerting systems. Once this data is collected, it can be communicated along with other custom data to the users via a wireless communication system using GSM model. Thus, the intelligent transportation systems satisfy the users and improve usage of public transportation.
