Abstract : Throughout the years, Indian Railways system had undergone lots of calamities and various accidents which
directly suffered people’s precious life. More than half of accidents are due to the level crossing problems in our country in
which Unmanned level crossing is the main issue, where our country lacks in. India’s railway system is one of the largest
railway networks all over the Asia and with this mammoth system, every level crossing in our country cannot be handled
manually. So, to rectify this problem we have designed model which is totally automatic, safe, regardless of human error and
the most important thing in the paper is that it is designed to compensate and save road users time. So,here is a technological
system in which railways tracks near crossing are laid by a piezoelectric plates which will give electrical signals to hooters
and speedometer when mechanical pressure is applied by train on plates. LED screen timer is sync with speedometer which
tells time of arrival of train and automatic gates are off as the train resides near rail- road junction. This will surely reduce
time and considered as an effective way to increase safety for various lives of people.
Index terms- Indian Railways, Unmanned crossings, Automatic, rail-road junction
