Automation in Highway Administration System

Abstract

The Main idea is to develop QR based smart toll .Where we will use QR based payments. The first step is, the user should register and obtain a unique QR code from our official website by inserting some of the essential details. After this process a QR code will be generated, which is to be placed on the front glass of car. Prior the travel the driver or the owner of car , should send the message regarding the travel to toll free number from registered mobile number so as to activate the QR code only for that route for the purpose of security. On toll plaza there will be different lanes for different type of vehicles, (example: trucks, four wheelers, busses, military or VIP people).When a vehicle reaches the toll plaza the scanners which are placed at the toll plaza will scan the QR code which is placed on the vehicle’s front glass and the specified amount will be deducted automatically from the drivers or owners bank account and on successful payment the barriers will open. Also the heavy vehicles are weighted at toll plaza to check if they are overloaded. If they are not overloaded and are having appropriate weight the same payment procedure is followed as specified above and the barriers are opened after payment. But if they are overloaded specified fine amount will automatically deduct from drivers or owner’s account, and only after managing the appropriate weight the heavy vehicles will be allowed to pass the barriers. In addition to this the time taken to travel from one toll to other toll is also measured, if the time taken by vehicle to travel from one toll to other is more than the prior defined time i.e. the actual time taken to travel is more than the assumed time, this means the speed limit has been exceeded somewhere .On basis of this result the fine amount is automatically deducted from the vehicle owner’s account if speed limit is exceeded. Also the car owner/driver can pay the toll amount prior the travel and can enjoy the journey without waiting on toll plazas.
