Abstract:
India is a developing country, infrastructure development is need of any nation to become a developed country. The whole efforts of the Indian government are into the mark to make most of cities in India to be smart. For making any city smart, it is essential to make transportation system connecting that city of a good caliber because the transportation is key for growth of any country since it is the very important aspect of movement, intercommunication of persons, goods or other things from one place to another. A smart city must have a network of smart transportation modes viz. airways, highways, railways etc. As per the road accident statistic of India – 2014, average deaths caused by road accidents that take place in India is 382 Persons/Day i.e. about 1,40,000 persons per year which is more than total sum of people died in all wars of India up to the date. So road safety or immunity is very essential aspect for any highway to be smart. Along with safety, comfort, convenience, mobility are also important aspects for highway to be called smart. A model is made by using sensors, GSM, GPS, micro- controllers, etc. and tested to minimize the road accidents, and road discomfort. Its characteristics like minimizing collision, speedy information conveying, safe and comfort intersection crossing and initiative to utilize the solar energy in traffic operations gives insistence over its practice in highway system.
