The increasing urbanization of cities such as Pune has placed significant pressure on public transportation systems to evolve and meet the growing demands of efficiency, safety, and user satisfaction. This research focuses on modernizing the Pune Mahanagar Parivahan Mahamandal Limited (PMPML) bus system through the development of a comprehensive mobile application designed to address existing challenges such as route inefficiency, unpredictable schedules, overcrowding, and inadequate safety measures. The proposed application leverages advanced GPS technology to enable real-time bus tracking, enhance commuter visibility, and incorporate features such as accident detection and alarm systems. These safety mechanisms alert both authorities and users through the application in the event of an emergency, ensuring timely interventions.
Additionally, the system includes a specialized "Soldier Tracking System" to monitor buses carrying personnel or sensitive cargo, providing heightened security and transparency. Other features such as AI-driven route optimization, digital ticketing, predictive analytics for dynamic fleet management, and a user feedback mechanism ensure a commuter-centric and efficient approach. Sustainability is also a core focus, with the application promoting public transport as a greener alternative to private vehicles.
The methodology involves user surveys, stakeholder interviews, and data analytics to identify key pain points and inform system design. Pilot studies and initial commuter feedback indicate significant improvements in user satisfaction, operational efficiency, and safety assurance. This research highlights the transformative potential of integrating safety, efficiency, and technology into urban transportation systems and provides a scalable model for other cities facing similar challenges.
