Abstract In order to avoid human life risks due to accidents in a tunnel, safety measures are focused upon along with considering the energy conservation methods. Force on the speed breaker due to vehicle’s weight and speed results in power generation, which can be used to light up the whole tunnel. The vehicle counter counts the number of vehicles going inside and coming outside the tunnel, such that traffic inside the tunnel can be controlled using traffic lights, in order to avoid any accident. The proposed system also allows fast evacuation of tunnel when accident occurs, with the help of smoke sensor, hooter as well as manual alarm switch.
