Different cities have different transport requirement. Cities should be categorised on the basis of main occupations and economy like tourism, trade, service industry, population, density and on such categories development blueprint should be prepared categorywise considering next 50 yrs of projections. This will bring uniformity in transport system on India level in similar cities and ease the usage and awareness in public about the system.

#MeraShaharMeraSapna (2)There are times when we could see the big cars to cause traffic jam in the narrow streets.As like restricting the lorries entering inside the cities,the narrow streets also should be marked to restrict the big vehicles usage at the peak working hours in cities.

#MeraShaharMeraSapna 1.Based on the data of schools and its students resident areas, the school timings/class timings or public bus timings could be rearranged.School children's free bus passes data could be analyzed for this. 2.Car pooling should be encouraged by government to reduce the inefficient car usages. 3.Use of CCTV surveillance camera inside the buses to monitor the issues in the problematic area buses could be extended to other area buses also for safety purposes.

Pressure is mounting on traffic authorities to maintain proper channelization of traffic, maintain law and order, indentifying and punishing the people who violate traffic rules, reduce and clear traffic jams and reduce the number of accidents on roads. Therefore, we require an efficient and intelligent system for monitoring traffic. This inspired us to come up with the idea of developing a “BHARTIYA TRAFFIC INTELLIGENCE SYSTEM (BTIS)”. Mainly it solve Red light Jumping and further for railways.
