An intelligent transportation system for detection and control of congested roads in urban centers

This paper presents a sanitation disinfection tunnel and monitoring system.It employs an embedded microcontroller with connectivity for accessing and controlling devices.The proposed system doesn’t require a fanatical server PC with reference to similar systems and offers a completely unique communication protocol o watch and control the house environment with more than just switching functionality than just the switching functionality.To demonstrate feasibility and effectiveness of this technique, devices like light switches, power plug, PIR, Ultrasonic or microwave motion sensor are intrigued with the proposed sanitization disinfection tunnel.Therefore this system has been successfully designed and implemented in real time.Internet of things is a revolutionary domain that has the caliber to impact our lives an convey significant changes to the convey significant changes to the planet.Several lot applications have been envisioned to facilitate data driven and smart application for the user.Smart cityand Intelligent Transportation System offer a futuristic vision of smart, secure and safe experience to the top user, and at an equivalent time efficiently manage the sparse resources and optimize the efficiency of city operations.However, outbrakes and pendamics like COVID-19 have revealed limitations of the prevailing developments, therefore, rchitecture, applications and technology systems got to be developed for swift and timely enforcement of guidelines, rules and government orders to contain such future outbreaks.

The purpose of the present research was to gain insight into the public perception of existing transportation options and to then explore consumers' needs and wants of those systems and the likely acceptance of possible intelligent transportation system (ITS) initiatives. The selected ITS concepts were based on nationally defined user needs for ITSs. Focus groups were selected as the means of gathering this primary research conducted throughout the state of California. Two perspectives were studied: statewide, to gain broad insights, and smart card specific, for focused insight. There was conspicuous agreement throughout the state as to the feelings about existing transportation systems. Californians are angry that they have not been consulted about their transportation system and that its current state does not reflect their wishes and does not meet their needs. Consumers are open to ITS concepts, including information systems, alternative fuel-powered vehicles, and other high-technology improvements. They support improvements in the automobile system and useful public transportation. Convenience, safety, freedom, flexibility, and control in planning and executing their travel are what they expect within an integrated transportation system. Much is written about the cost-effectiveness of buses. The reality is that the majority of the people will never use public transit in its current state. Electronic fare payment systems were seen as the ultimate in convenience for current users. Integrated fare systems were considered a tool for beginning the improvement of public transportation for existing users and for breaking down barriers of confusion and the lack of connectivity to attract new users.
