strategic roadmap to address the transportation and traffic problem of Delhi city. As a member
of the planning team, you have to share a comprehensive solution for the following:
1. Devise a strategic roadmap with short and medium-term goals to address the transportation
and traffic requirement of Delhi
2. Devise a smart ITS plan for Delhi and IBM for short term benefits to address the following:
Citizen convenience
Reduce congestion
Reduce pollution
Provide a platform to citizens to plan their journey
Engage citizens- participation, feedback, grievance redressal
With the existing infrastructure, propose with specific recommendations a plan that is
implementable within 1 year using the framework of a Smart Transportation System for more
efficient traffic management.

Actions
Expected Results or Desired Situation
The Need
Traffic congestion costs $10 Bn/year
3 Indian cities in the top 10 list of worst traffic conditions
1% of worlds cars in India amounts to 10% of worlds road accident deaths
Methodology
Electric Cars - Electric vehicles have the potential to occupy about 2 to 5 per cent
of the Indian market by 2020.
Charging stations will be needed where there is on-street parking, at taxi stands,
in parking lots
Enable labor, goods and services to move freely, cheaply and safely
Electric Vehicles
Support electricity and renewable energy operated cars with the required
infrastructure
Expand Public Electric Vehicle (EV) infrastructure that ensures the safe,
reliable, and efficient integration of EV charging loads with the power grid
Single fare card for fare payment on the various participating public
transportation systems
Geospatial-enabled Public
Transportation Surveillance
Geospatial-enabled services provide periodic traffic forecast, journey
planning mobile applications based on real-time data of public transport
Remotely monitors the public transport and takes action against any
accident/incidents
ICT brings the potential for virtually unlimited data collection, greatly
enhanced predictive capabilities
RFID also linked to driving license , all traffic signals should be integrated through smart
network
Singapore - smart pricing to reduce congestion
US guy - rewarding those who follow speed limits through personalized letter of appreciation
Ahmedabad - separate corridor for buses
Google Echo - planning for cars as well
Internet of Things: The Smart Cities movement is opening up new opportunities for urban
infrastructure and mobility. Software systems can facilitate trip planning and guide AVs based
on real-time conditions, while also helping planners add capacity and improve reliability to help
mass transit remain competitive
Under the dense, developing cities scenario, what McKinsey calls a Clean and Share model is expected
to emerge. Under this model, infrastructure improvements will have the most significant impact on
integrated mobility, helping alleviate traffic congestion and providing efficient mobility services that can
meet the demands of rapid population growth. High-capacity public transport and shared mobility
services are likely to provide the most effective at satisfying mobility needs, with shared light vehicles
accounting for approximately one third of vehicle miles traveled in an average-sized city by 2030.
Advances in decentralized renewable power generation, in addition to mounting concerns about pollution,
are also expected to drive a shift towards electric vehicles. McKinsey projects that 40 percent of vehicles
in developing, dense cities will be electric by 2030.
The report suggests that cities such as Delhi, Istanbul and Mumbai, which fall into the category of dense,
developing cities, are well-poised to make early transitions to integrated mobility based on factors such as
above-average GDP per capita, population size, track record of effectively implementing public projects
and urgent pollution and congestion problems.
These cities stand to benefit significantly from mobility advances, with McKinsey estimating gains of
$600 million in annual societal benefits by 2030. Between the period of 2015 to 2030, these benefits
could add up to $3 billion and $4 billion, or $2,200 to $2,800 per resident.
The future of urban mobility is ACES: Autonomous, Connected, Electric, and Shared.
Over a million plug-in hybrids and pure electric vehicles are on the road. By 2025, Navigant
expects 37 million electric vehicles (EVs) on the global roads, fueled by lithium battery costs
falling from $1,000 per kWh in 2010 to $145 (GMs price from LG Chem reports Car and Driver).
Drivers kill over a million people annually, making the road unsafe for other drivers, bicyclers,
and pedestrians. Self-driving cars see better using multiple cameras, lasers, and lidar. Self-
driving cars are totally focused on driving; dont text, bounce to music, drive after drinking,
smoke dope, or get distracted.

Shared Mobility:
It is organized into nine sections including: 1)carsharing; 2) scooter sharing; 3) bikesharing; 4)
on-demand ride services (ridesourcing/TNCs, ridesplitting, and e-Hail); 5) ridesharing; 6)
alternative transit services (shuttles and microtransit); 7)
courier network services; 8) trip planning apps; and 9) a summary.
ADVANTAGES: Reduced cost, increased choice, increased flexibility in route and use
Disadvantage: lower income people not taking full advantage of ride share

Thirdly, digital technologies with real-time information on trains, buses and on-demand/shared
service availability can shrink the reliability buffer. the extra time a traveler
builds into a trip to account for possible delays, and significantly reduce the time
window improving quality of service.
Real time and open or crowdsource data, therefore, is a vital part of identifying the trends that
turn into mobility needs and developing quantitative process and evaluation models for each
mobility option. The proposed model of a future mobility ecosystem must be able to support
people and the choices they desire with minimal constraints. In order to achieve this, three
levels of adoption rates were assumed: Level 1 is the basic shared systems currently available,
Level 2 takes into account available connected and real-time technology, and Level 3
recognizes how peoples values are shifting under economic realities and imminent
environmental pressures. Among the shared vehicles systems, three levels were assumed:
basic sharing technology, connected and electrical products, and fully autonomous
technologies.
Centralised IT system will be linked to a central live database which will tell.
Which route to take
To shut engine when in jam
Traffic lights mapped into the car
Real time data of flights, trains , buses which is reliable
connected technologies and real time display inform about available service, service status,
location or service disruption.
Connected technologies also ensure users can pay, book, and locate services
Incentive system:
These registered vehicles can pass through toll booth without stopping. Automatic payment of
toll fee.
Dynamic pricing for toll booth depending on the congestion.
Smart devices on system will dynamically calculate your CO2 emissions, petrol consumption if
you take a given route and thus will incentivize you with freebies if you take an alternate route.
