Design and Implementation of Addis Ababa-Adama Highway Automated Payment System

Abstract

Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) offer the advantages of long Road pricing or the condition in which fees are paid for using a road is called toll collection or tooling at large. Now a day there are different methods and technologies that are used to control the road payment, toll tax payment in the world. But none of these technologies are yet applied in our country specifically, at Addis Ababa to Adama Express Highway road, which is a new road of its type. The proposed system can be used in order to eliminate corruption, traffic jam and to reduce wastage of time which the problem of the current system. The aim of my project is to design a system which uses an online data server for the payment. The driver needs to pay some amount of money at the road authority office before attempting to use the road which implies that the system is prepaid. The driver is given a secret code which will be asked by the system and his/her account activated online. As a car approaches the entry of the express way the system measure the weight of the car by use of load sensor and calculates amount to be paid then display on LCD if the weight is within the permissible range; the driver is then asked to input the secret code and the payment is done accordingly if the correct input is entered and the balance of the driver can afford the amount needed by using the database system. Then the system opens the road for the car and close it after it has crossed the gate. The system also send SMS to the driver amount of his/her current balance, amount of needed discounted money and the remaining balance after the payment is done, so that the driver may charge the balance for the next time, if the balance is low. Otherwise, if the weight is out of the permissible range the system displays warning message and it doesn’t open the road blocker.
