The initial exercise is to identify corridors causing conflicts and traffic delays and provide suitable grade separation scheme, including elevated corridors, flyovers, underpasses and interchanges that can provide uninterrupted traffic flow and enhance safety.

Our transportation system such as buses have not developed so that we cannot say that it is comfortable to travel in bus and bus arrival and departure timing should be corrected and buses should be updated most of the buses in India (except capital cities) are not developed and its not in good condition by improving these thing people will use public transport so that traffic jam will be reduced and increase in pollution due to increase in bikes and cars will be reduced.

3. Travelling by Bus can be more efficient if we can keep the record of all the buses that are running in our city. Online booking of bus tickets though MOBILE APP, WEBSITE & TOLL FREE NUMBER can ease the work a lot. All the bus should have GPS system installed so that anyone can track the position of BUS by just entering the BUS NUMBER in navigation system and can easily know the status of running bus for stop in the city. This implementation will lead to boom in Smart City work.

2. Approximate number of peoples having cars can be counted from the database of the office of the car companies of the city and the population of the city is known to us. Keeping that aspect ration in mind, the most used public transport i.e. BUS service can be effectively utilized through the BIG DATA technology. Survey can be conducted for efficient routes where peoples want and prefer public transport and keeping in mind the facility in BUS and routes available, We can maintain the Ratio.

1. The traffic congestion message should be instantly given to the residents of nearby area where the congestion occurs with the help of GPS navigation. After the identification of the congestion area, the peoples around the congestion area upto a radius of 0-5 Kms should get the message of the same with location of congestion and also suggest the route to avoid the congestion. The use of GPS technology will come handy in this and peoples can avoid the jam on the roads and ease the police work.

Q1. construct sufficient flyovers, cloverleaves, subways for vehicular traffic. Different lanes for BRTS, cars, cycles & pedestrians, elevated overpass or u.g pass in suitable place Q2. operating vehicles in ratio 1:10. If the double decker bus service is available, then that will be most appropiate for smart city’s transport system. In that case the car & the bus ratio will be 1:6.Frequency of the bus service should be small gap of time & disciplined. Q3. IRIDIUM phones,Digital display board

1. The traffic is more because of bad roads and people struggling to cross roads. This has to be fixed first. 2. There should be a rule that every person must commute in a bus at least 2 days in a week. Car pooling is good idea but mass transport is always better. 3. Every mass transport should have GPS fixed so that commuters get the details of a bus coming to there stop and also commuters can send a message to near ones about their travel in the bus which is bit safer.

Question-3 Make saperate line for seperate vehicles, Seperate junction for Bus Stops. Like Metro stations, Give strict orders to Bus drivers not to drive rash in any time. no overtakes in rush times. perfect practice of all traffic rules like line jumping, crossing red signals. educate passengers to follw the safe journey precautions. (Nothing is impossible) only thing we need determination (remember President Obama says Modi Sab sleeps less time than Me). we can see the Smart India in our times
