Chetan Bansiwal, Sayyam Jain, Gauri Tomar

Abstract:

The Delhi-Meerut Expressway is not only a significant infrastructure project in India but also a
pioneering endeavour in terms of implementing an advanced Intelligent Transport System (ITS). This
project paper explores the integral role of the Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR)
technology within the ITS framework, emphasising its Edge based implementation and transformative
impact on traffic management. By leveraging ALPR technology, the Delhi-Meerut Expressway has
achieved improved surveillance, enhanced safety measures, and efficient traffic flow. This report
delves into the implementation, accuracy, benefits, and future prospects of ALPR within the
intelligent transportation ecosystem of the expressway.
