6. LITERATURE REVIEW
• History :
The origin of the formal ITS program dates back to the nineteen sixties
with the development of the Electronic Route Guidance System, or ERGS
in the United States, to provide drivers with route guidance information
based on real-time traffic analysis. The system used special hardware
located at various intersections across the road network, on-board way
devices in vehicles that would form the hub of communication between
the driver and the ERGS system, and a central computer system that
processed the information received from the remote systems.
During the early seventies, the ERGS program led to a more sophisticated,
automated system comprising interactive visual digital maps called the
Automatic Route Control System or ARCS. The Urban Traffic Control
System was developed concomitantly, connecting various traffic signals
and computer generated predetermined signal timings for better traffic
organization.

10. ADVANCED PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION
SYSTEM
 Advanced Public Transport System are those systems and technologies
that help to improve transport services, using satellite navigation systems,
wireless communication systems , and other devices so that passengers
are able to get more information on timing for example, buses
and carpooling services.
 The goal of APTS is to provide more
information to public to make
effective decisions and to
increase traveler convenience.
7

11. ADVANCED TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM
 Monitors the flow of traffic appropriate decisions In timely manner.
 Employs in expensive detectors, cameras and communications system to
control the flow of traffic.
 Optimize signals timing on major arterials.
8

12. INCIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
 They offer real time information about traffic conditions through
variable message sign to warn accidents or other delays.
 Variable message sign is a board which provide information to a
motorist of a upcoming hazard.
 Enable authorities to identify and respond to vehicle crashes or
breakdown with the most appropriate and timely emergency
services, thereby minimizing recovery time.
9

13. ELECTRONIC TOLL COLLECTION
SYSTEM
 ETC is a system by which drivers can pay tolls without having to stop at a
toll booth.
 The collection of the fees is performed electronically by way of equipment
installed in the vehicles and sensors at the toll location.
 ETC is based on vehicle road side communication system.
10

14. VEHICLE INFORMATION AND
COLLECTION SYSTEM
 This system includes updation of all road user about the traffic conditions
and other information congestion, jams, roads blocks, pollution level, etc.
 The information via FM Band or through roads maps quickly showing
traffic conditions in surrounding areas, the drivers can use this information
to select the best routes by using in vehicle monitor.

15. OBJECTIVE
• ITS aims to facilitate a national multi-modal surface transportation
system that features a connected transportation environment
around vehicles of all types, the infrastructure, and carry-in
passenger devices to serve the public good by leveraging
technology to maximize safety, mobility, and environmental
performance.
• An intelligent transportation system (ITS) is an advanced application
which, without embodying intelligence as such, aims to provide
innovative services relating to different modes of transport and
traffic management and enable users to be better informed and
make safer, more coordinated, and 'smarter' use of transport

16. STAGES OF WORK
• Data Collection
 There were on average 1,578 fatalities each year resulting from two
vehicles traffic crashes at intersections controlled by traffic signals.
 Approximately 51% of those fatal crashes were caused by drivers who ran
red lights.
 Potholes accounted for 6,424 Roads Accidents & 2,324 fatalities.
9,583 accidents & 3,396 accident deaths were attributed to speed
breakers.
 The State Highway Traffic police have identified more than 45 spots on
National Highway which are major accidental prone zones. Statistics have
revealed that a total number of 1,169 accidents were reported on
Mumbai-Ahmedabad highway which ended up killing 307 people in 2016.
 According to data, total number of accidents occurred due to traffic
signals involves 15,125 accidents, 4,322 killed and 12,995 injured.
13

17. • Analysis Of Collected Data
 Most of the accidents occurs due to Disobeying of Traffic Signals, Over
speeding, Blind turns and Potholes.
 Road accidents in the country have decreased by around 4.1% during
2016, with the year seeing 4,80,652 road accidents as against 5,01,423 in
2015. However fatalities resulting from these accidents have risen by
about 3.2% during the same period. Nearly 1,50,785 persons were killed in
2016 as against 1,46,133 in 2015.
 One serious roads accidents in the country occurs every minutes and 16
dies on Indian roads every hour.
 About 1214 road crashes occurs every day on India.
 Tamil Nadu is the state which involves the maximum number roads
accidents in India.

19. • Remedies
 Spikes On Roads
 Blind Turn Safety
 Pedestrian Crossing
 Stop Crash Alert
 Approaching Emergency Vehicles
16

20. SPIKES ON ROADS
• In India, traffic rules are hardly followed by peoples especially on
traffic signals and to make them follow rules on traffic signals. We
need to fit spikes over the roads which are used to puncture tires
and make electronic system which trigger spikes at upward
direction when the stop signal (RED LIGHT), is displayed on traffic
light.
• As the traffic light turns green, the system will again trigger those
spikes in downwards direction. Therefore, peoples can cross the
roads without breaking traffic rules.
17

21. • On traffic signals, spikes will implemented just one or two feet before
zebra crossing which will be at normal position till the traffic light is green
which means GO. As the traffic light goes red which means STOP spikes
will automatically go in upward direction.
18

22. BLIND TURN SAFETY
• The accidents majorly happens on the blind turns of the roads so
the safety level should be increased on that blind turns. In order to
lower down the accident rates at the Blind turns by using the
certain Technologies.
• The Technology can be use in such a way that we can provide a
pressure switch (Pressure sensors) about one to two kilometers on
the either side of the blind turns. So, that the vehicle can get the
Information of the another vehicle coming from the opposite
direction through the signals.
19

23. 20

24. PEDESTRIAN CROSSING
• When it comes to the pedestrian crossing, the Handicapped pedestrian
can cross the road easily by simply delivering a message through a device
to the intelligent transportation system and this system will quickly
transfer the signal to the upcoming vehicles, and this signal strictly orders
the coming vehicles to slow down its speed or stop. So, the pedestrian can
cross the roads without any harm.
21

25. STOP CRASH ALERT
• Connected Vehicles can improve roads safety by providing the
drivers 360 degree awareness of similarly equipped vehicle within a
range of 300 meters. Drivers will receive warning that inform
potential hazards through a visual display or seat vibration. These
are only warning that drivers remains in control of vehicle at all
times. These warning helps drivers to avoid potential crashes for
e.g., Intersection Movement Assist application, Do Not Pass
application in order to maintain the safety.
22

26. EMERGENCY VEHICLES APPROACHING
• Emergency Vehicle could use specific signals to pre-empty the traffic
signals. They can also use certain software to broadcast their presence to
the drivers with the obstructive view or difficulty in hearing the siren. With
the help of this software Emergency Vehicle (i.e., Fire Brigade, Ambulance,
etc.) can travel with faster speed and can reach their destination within
short period of time.
23

27. CONCLUSION
• India’s ITS cannot be entirely model led on the existing successful
ITS of other nations due to basic cultural, geographic and practical
differences amongst the countries. The existing concept shave to be
thoroughly understood in order to modify them to fit the Indian
traffic scenario.
• The rapidly increasing vehicle population in India, spurred by the
population boom and economic up turn lay sacrificial burden on
traffic management in the metropolitan cities and towns of the
country. While India has already made a for intelligent transport
systems in organizing traffic, more extensive and urgent integration
of advanced technology and concepts into main stream traffic
management is imperative.
24

28. RECOMMENDATIONS
• The accidents rates in India is at the alarming rate due to the
increment of vehicle population that is why role of intelligent
transportation system should be increased.
• So, The automation in India should be increased in order to
maintain the accident handling and it also helps in smooth flow of
transportation.
• Intelligent Transportation System helps in maintaining the bond
between traveler and the traffic rules and regulations (such as
traffic signs, traffic signals)
• In order to increase the accident handling the implementation of
concept of Emerging Technologies (i.e., Spikes, Blind turn alert)
