RouteSense: A Dual-Interface Architecture for Advance Journey Planning and Economic Traffic Governance on Bengaluru Corridors

RouteSense is a research project presenting a dual-interface urban traffic intelligence and journey-planning platform for Bengaluru corridors. The system combines a Citizen Journey Planning Portal with a Traffic Authority Command Center through a shared FastAPI backend and SQLite database. The research discusses historical and live-condition journey planning, traffic forecasting, road-hazard reporting, incident management, priority scoring and economic impact estimation. The paper describes the system architecture, implementation methodology, functional testing and limitations. The reported evaluation includes 22 integration test cases. The forecasting model and economic estimates require further real-world validation. AI assistance was used in preparing the manuscript. The authors are responsible for verifying the technical content, references, results and conclusions.
